BACK TO DECEMBER

[00:14.16] I'm so glad you made time to see me

[00:17.61] How's life? Tell me, how's your family?

[00:21.07] I haven't seen them in a while

[00:27.44] You've been good, busier than ever

[00:30.89] We small talk, work and the weather

[00:34.35] Your guard is up and I know why

[00:40.99] Because the last time you saw me

[00:43.64] Is still burned in the back of your mind

[00:47.10] You gave me roses and I left them there to die

[00:54.27] So this is me swallowin' my pride

[00:56.66] Standin' in front of you sayin' I'm sorry for that night

[01:03.03] And I go back to December all the time

[01:07.55] It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you

[01:11.27] Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[01:16.85] I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright

[01:23.76] I go back to December all the time

[01:42.08] These days, I haven't been sleepin'

[01:45.01] Stayin' up playin' back myself leavin'

[01:48.72] When your birthday passed and I didn't call

[01:54.83] Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times

[01:58.29] I watched you laughin' from the passenger's side

[02:02.00] And realized I loved you in the fall

[02:08.91] And then the cold came, the dark days

[02:11.83] When fear crept into my mind

[02:14.75] You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye

[02:22.20] So this is me swallowin' my pride

[02:24.85] Standin' in front of you sayin' I'm sorry for that night

[02:30.95] And I go back to December all the time

[02:35.47] It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you

[02:39.19] Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[02:44.77] I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

[02:51.67] I go back to December all the time

[03:08.15] I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile

[03:12.39] So good to me, so right

[03:15.05] And how you held me in your arms that September night

[03:19.83] The first time you ever saw me cry

[03:23.82] Maybe this is wishful thinkin'

[03:27.27] Probably mindless dreamin'

[03:29.93] But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right

[03:36.30] I'd go back in time and change it, but I can't

[03:42.68] So if the chain is on your door, I understand

[03:50.11] But this is me swallowin' my pride

[03:52.71] Standin' in front of you sayin' I'm sorry for that night

[03:58.82] And I go back to December

[04:03.33] It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you

[04:07.05] Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[04:12.63] I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright

[04:19.81] I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

[04:26.18] I go back to December all the time

[04:36.53] All the time
