Taylor Swift - Back To December

          Back to December yang di populerkan Taylor Swift ini adalah salah satu lagu kesukaan aku. Sebagaimana sebagian besar lagu Swift yang lain, Back to December juga berisi sebuah cerita. Lagu ini bisa di kategorikan sebagai lagu galau karena lirik nya yang cukup menyentuh.

Lagu ini bercerita tentang penyesalan Swift karena telah menyia – nyiakan mantan pacarnya. Dan saat Swift kembali bertemu mantan nya ini, dia akhirnya meminta maaf atas pengabaian yang ia lakukan terhadap mantannya saat mereka berpacaran dulu. Nah, makanya buat kalian di luar sana yang punya pacar, jangan sekali – kali ya  menyia – nyiakan pacar kalian. Nanti nyesel sendiri lohh. Hehe

Dan kabarnya, lagu ini di tujukan Swift untuk mantan pacarnya yaitu Taylor Lautner. Di lagu ini juga terdapat lirik yang mengarah pada Lautner,

I miss your tanned skin, your sweet smile

Tanned skin? Lautner banget ngga sih? Dan kalau ngomongin sweet smile, jangan tanya deh semanis apa Lautner kalau tersenyum. Hehe. Yasudah ya Swift, sabar aja. Kini Lautner sudah bahagia bersama aku. Hehehe ^-^

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 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
