I still remember the snow last December, the way that it fell on the ground
In this miserable place, with you, I felt safe
I thought that on you I could count
I remember last Christmas you got me a new disc
I was so excited to put it on
And we danced along to my favorite song
I can't believe those days are gone
How did such a happy story have such a tragic end
Could we go back to how it was back then
When nothing mattered more than friends
Before we lost that happiness to stubbornness and arrogance
I still remember the lingering embers you stared at in my fireplace
I let you borrow my things
Took you under my wing
But I guess that my trust was misplaced
I put my guard down just for you
I should have known you'd leave me too
But could we go back to how it was back then
When nothing mattered more than friends
Before we lost that happiness to selfishness and impudence
You needed me last December, but I was still in November, focusing only on my regrets
And I let everything that we had slip right through my hands
Am I the reason such a happy story had such a tragic end
I guess I showed up too little too late
Would things have been different if I had stayed
I can hardly remember the rain last December, but I know that burned through my skin
They all loved that version of me, the one who couldn't think
Would you love me more if I was who I was then
But could we go back to how it was back then
When nothing mattered more than friends
Before we lost that happiness to senselessness and belligerence
And I'm sorry I didn't become what you wanted
I'm sorry that I left all of your nights haunted
Why is it that you always leave in the end
Why is it, with you, everything's past tense
I still remember the snow last December, the way that it fell on the ground
