December

December was nice before I'd ever had a lover
Now I just cry at people caring for each other
Seems like the nights are falling, darker than ever
Thought I would like it 'til it felt like forever
And it's cold out, was it this cold out
When I was little, and I liked when it snowed out?
I can't remember, but I still feel your sweater
Overheating in the summer, now I'm cold in December

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

December was fine before I ever learned to travel
Now I'm in line, marking my baggage as fragile
They tell me home is where my heart is beating steady
But lately, it's split between a couple different cities
And I miss you, why do I miss you?
On a plane miles and miles away, I'm still with you
We're touching down, but I still feel you at my center
You were home back in August, now I'm alone in December

And so, I have to change with the seasons
Let the autumn fall away with you leaving
I can disappear in the cold like every other year
Hide in holiday cheer, ooh-ooh
And at night, I'll face all my demons
Summer's when they hibernate, now I'm freezing
What I wouldn't do to be a kid, be at home, be with you
What I wouldn't do

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

December was mine when I could tolerate the weather
When it made me smile to see anybody together
I can still hope that January will be better
Used to call it getting older, now I call it December
