TAYLOR SWIFT - BACK TO DECEMBER

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 Here 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 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
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



SONG FACTS

Writer(s): Taylor Swift
Producer(s): Nathan Chapman, Taylor Swift

This Is A Track From Taylor Swift's Third Studio Album, Speak Now. Taylor Apologizes In This Song About The Way She Messed Up A Relationship With A Former Boyfriend, Who Now Finds It Hard To Trust Her.

Taylor Admitted To E! News The Song Is Dedicated To An Actual Person To Whom She Had Done Wrong: "It Addresses A First For Me In That I've Never Apologized In Song. The Person I Wrote This Song About Deserves This. This Is About A Person Who Was Incredible To Me, Just Perfect To Me In A Relationship, And I Was Really Careless With Him."

Many Of Taylor's Fans Believe That The Song Is Referring To American Actor Taylor Lautner, Whom She Dated Briefly At The End Of 2009. However, Even Though The Singer Is Happy To Pour Out Personal Details In Song, She Is Remaining Silent On Just Who Is The Recipient Of Her Apologies. "It's Such An Interesting Little Quirk," Taylor Told Usa Today. "It's Like, 'Obviously, You're Writing Songs About Your Life And You're Almost Admitting To These Things.' But When It Actually Comes Time To Talk About Them In An Interview, I Get Pretty Shy And Coy About It."

The Song's Music Video Was Directed By Yoann Lemoine, Who Was Also The Man Behind The Lens For Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream." The Chilly Clip Finds Swift Contemplating The Best Way To Apologize To A Former Lover, Played By Male Model, Guntars Asmanis, For Breaking His Heart. Footages Of The School And Baseball Stadium Were Filmed In Macarthur Park, New York, While Scenes With Swift Were Shot In An Old Country Mansion Outside Of Nashville.
