Back To December

[00:12.82] I'm so glad you made time to see me

[00:16.82] How's life? Tell me how's your family?

[00:20.32] I haven't seen them in a while

[00:27.09] You've been good, busier than ever

[00:30.35] We small-talk, work and the weather

[00:33.85] Your guard is up and I know why

[00:40.37] Because the last time you saw me is still burned in the back of your mind

[00:46.63] You gave me roses and I left them there to die

[00:53.64] So this is me swallowing my pride

[00:56.40] Standing in front of you, saying, "I'm sorry for that night,"

[01:02.92] And I go back to December all the time

[01:07.42] It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

[01:10.68] Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[01:16.43] I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right

[01:23.19] I go back to December all the time

[01:41.21] These days I haven't been sleeping

[01:44.47] Staying up, playing back myself leaving

[01:48.48] When your birthday passed and I didn't call

[01:54.73] And I think about summer, all the beautiful times

[01:57.74] I watched you laughing from the passenger side

[02:01.25] And realized I loved you in the fall

[02:08.01] And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind

[02:14.27] You gave me all your love and all I gave you was "Goodbye"

[02:21.79] So this is me swallowing my pride

[02:24.29] Standing in front of you, saying, "I'm sorry for that night."

[02:30.80] And I go back to December all the time

[02:35.31] It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

[02:38.56] Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[02:44.32] I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

[02:51.08] I go back to December all the time

[03:08.35] I miss your tanned skin, your sweet smile

[03:11.87] So good to me, so right

[03:14.87] And how you held me in your arms that September night:

[03:19.62] The first time you ever saw me cry

[03:23.38] Maybe this is wishful thinking

[03:26.63] Probably mindless dreaming

[03:29.89] But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right

[03:35.66] I'd go back in time and change it but I can't

[03:41.92] So if the chain is on your door I understand

[03:49.18] But this is me swallowing my pride

[03:52.19] Standing in front of you, saying, "I'm sorry for that night."

[03:58.44] And I go back to December

[04:03.20] It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

[04:06.45] Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[04:12.22] I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right

[04:18.97] I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

[04:25.73] I go back to December all the time

[04:36.01] All the time
