Back To December - Taylor Swift

 I'm so glad you made time to see me

How's life? Tell me how's your family?

I haven't seen them in a while

You've been good, busier than ever

We small-talk, work and the weather

Your guard is up and I know why

Because the last time you saw me is still burned in the back of your mind

You gave me roses and I left them there to die

So this is me swallowing my pride

Standing in front of you, saying, "I'm sorry for that night,"

And I go back to December all the time

It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right

I go back to December all the time

These days I haven't been sleeping

Staying up, playing back myself leaving

When your birthday passed and I didn't call

And I think about summer, all the beautiful times

I watched you laughing from the passenger side

And realized I loved you in the fall

And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind

You gave me all your love and all I gave you was "Goodbye"

So this is me swallowing my pride

Standing in front of you, saying, "I'm sorry for that night."

And I go back to December all the time

It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

I go back to December all the time

I miss your tanned skin, your sweet smile

So good to me, so right

And how you held me in your arms that September night:

The first time you ever saw me cry

Maybe this is wishful thinking

Probably mindless dreaming

But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right

I'd go back in time and change it but I can't

So if the chain is on your door I understand

But this is me swallowing my pride

Standing in front of you, saying, "I'm sorry for that night."

And I go back to December

It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you

Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I'd go back to December, turn around and make it all right

I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind

I go back to December all the time

All the time
