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
Small talk work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why
Cause the last time you saw me
Still burns 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
nothin' 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 alright
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 laughin'
from the passenger side
And realized I loved you
in the fall
And then the cold came
With the dark days
when the 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
nothin' but missing you
Wishing I'd realized
what I had when you were mine
I'd go back to December
turn it around and change
my own mind
I'd go back to December
all the time
I miss your tan 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
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
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
It turns out freedom
ain't nothin' but missing you
Wishing I'd realized
what I had when you were mine
turn it around and
all the time
I'd go back to December
turn it around and change
my own mind
I'd go back to December
All the time
All the time
