Back to Desember

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 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.

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 realize 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.

"Mine"

(Taylor Swift)

You were in college working part time waitin’ tables

Left a small town, never looked back

I was a flight risk with a fear of fallin’

Wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts

I say "Can you believe it?

As we’re lying on the couch?"

The moment I can see it.

Yes, yes, I can see it now.

Do you remember, we were sitting there by the water?

You put your arm around me for the first time.

You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter.

You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

Flash forward and we’re taking on the world together,

And there’s a drawer of my things at your place.

You learn my secrets and you figure out why I’m guarded,

You say we’ll never make my parents’ mistakes.

But we got bills to pay,

We got nothing figured out,

When it was hard to take,

Yes, yes, this is what I thought about.

Do you remember, we were sitting there, by the water?

You put your arm around me for the first time

You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter

You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

Do you remember all the city lights on the water?

You saw me start to believe for the first time

You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter

You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

Oh, oh, oh

And I remember that fight

Two-thirty AM

As everything was slipping right out of our hands

I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street

Braced myself for the "Goodbye"

‘cause that’s all I’ve ever known

Then you took me by surprise

You said, "I’ll never leave you alone."

You said, "I remember how we felt sitting by the water

And every time I look at you, it’s like the first time

I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter

She is the best thing that’s ever been mine."

Hold on, make it last

Hold on, never turn back

You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter

You are the best thing that’s ever been mine.

(Hold on) Do you believe it?

(Hold on) Gonna make it now.

(Hold on) I can see it,

(Yes, yes) I can see it now.
