Back to December

[00:13.79] I'm so glad you made time to see me

[00:17.29] How's life? Tell me how's your family

[00:20.54] I haven't seen them in a while

[00:27.29] You've been good, busier than ever

[00:30.54] We small-talk, work and the weather

[00:34.29] Your guard is up and I know why

[00:40.79] Because the last time you saw me is still burned in the back of your mind

[00:46.54] You gave me roses and I left them there to die

[00:54.04] So this is me swallowing my pride

[00:56.54] Standing in front of you, saying, "I'm sorry for that night"

[01:03.04] And I go back to December all the time

[01:07.29] It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

[01:10.79] Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[01:16.54] I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right

[01:23.54] I go back to December all the time

[01:41.88] These days I haven't been sleeping

[01:44.63] Staying up, playing back myself leavin'

[01:48.38] When your birthday passed and I didn't call

[01:54.38] And I think about summer, all the beautiful times,

[01:58.12] I watched you laughing from the passenger side

[02:01.87] And realized I loved you in the fall

[02:08.63] And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind

[02:14.63] You gave me all your love and all I gave you was "Goodbye"

[02:21.87] So this is me swallowing my pride

[02:24.37] Standing in front of you, saying, "I'm sorry for that night"

[02:30.87] And I go back to December all the time

[02:35.37] It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

[02:38.87] Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[02:44.37] I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

[02:51.13] I go back to December all the time

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

[03:12.15] So good to me, so right

[03:14.90] And how you held me in your arms that September night:

[03:19.65] The first time you ever saw me cry

[03:23.65] Maybe this is wishful thinking

[03:26.90] Probably mindless dreaming

[03:29.90] But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right

[03:35.65] I'd go back in time and change it but I can't

[03:42.40] So if the chain is on your door I understand

[03:49.90] But this is me swallowing my pride

[03:52.65] Standing in front of you, saying, "I'm sorry for that night"

[03:58.65] And I go back to December

[04:03.15] It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

[04:06.65] Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

[04:12.40] I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right

[04:19.15] I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

[04:25.90] I go back to December all the time

[04:35.90] All the time
