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.
’cause 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 that I 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 leavin
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.
Realized that I loved you in the fall
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 that I 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.
