Back To December (Taylor's Version)

[00:13.76] I'm so glad you made time to see me

[00:17.24] How's life? Tell me, how's your family?

[00:20.70] I haven't seen them in a while

[00:27.34] You've been good, busier than ever

[00:30.79] We small talk, work and the weather

[00:34.25] Your guard is up and I know why

[00:40.87] Because the last time you saw me

[00:43.33] Is still burned in the back of your mind

[00:46.65] You gave me roses and I left them there to die

[00:53.82] So this is me swallowin' my pride

[00:56.48] Standin' in front of you, sayin' I'm sorry for that night

[01:02.87] And I go back to December all the time

[01:07.38] It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you

[01:10.83] Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[01:16.71] I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright

[01:23.36] I go back to December all the time

[01:41.95] These days, I haven't been sleepin'

[01:44.80] Stayin' up playin' back myself leavin'

[01:48.50] When your birthday passed and I didn't call

[01:54.35] Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times

[01:58.07] I watched you laughin' from the passenger side and

[02:02.05] Realized I loved you in the fall

[02:08.68] And then the cold came, the dark days

[02:11.34] When fear crept into my mind

[02:14.74] You gave me all your love, and all I gave you was goodbye

[02:21.65] So this is me swallowin' my pride

[02:24.33] Standin' in front of you, sayin' I'm sorry for that night

[02:30.94] And I go back to December all the time

[02:35.45] It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you

[02:38.74] Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[02:44.51] I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

[02:51.40] I go back to December all the time

[03:08.00] I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile

[03:12.24] So good to me, so right

[03:14.91] And how you held me in your arms that September night

[03:19.67] The first time you ever saw me cry

[03:23.69] Maybe this is wishful thinkin'

[03:26.85] Probably mindless dreamin'

[03:29.79] But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right

[03:35.86] I'd go back in time and change it, but I can't

[03:42.51] So if the chain is on your door, I understand

[03:49.68] But this is me swallowin' my pride

[03:52.33] Standin' in front of you, sayin' I'm sorry for that night

[03:58.73] And I go back to December

[04:03.23] It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you

[04:06.68] Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[04:12.52] I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright

[04:19.13] I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

[04:26.00] I go back to December all the time

[04:36.11] All the time
