January: 2011

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

‘Cause the last time you saw me
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’d go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you
Wishing that I’d realized what I had when you were mine
I’d go back to December, turn around and make it alright
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’d go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you
Wishing that 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
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’d go back to December
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you
Wishing that I’d realized what I had when you were mine and
I go back to December, turn around and make it alright and
I go back to December, turn around and change my own mind and
I go back to December all the time



November

Darl’n – Between the Trees

This call is meant to be brief
a simple hello ending with goodbye
Then you say hello
now, I am melting
and now my goodbye
becomes a goodnight
I don’t mind if you don’t mind
please say you do not mind if this call
goes on all night
cause I have more to say
my afternoon was O.K.
my evening was fine but this night
I want it to be the best night
of our lives

Sweet Darling
this is my confession to
the crimes of wanting you badly
And Darlin’ if you’re wondering
here’s your answer
yes I like you
I don’t love you
I can’t love you
yet

These calls are getting longer
and these nights go on
and on and on forever
I do believe I’m getting better
knowing you
hopefully all of you
Sitting watching movies
we both know I do not watch a bit of it
cause I am much too busy
leaving my hand close enough
so you’ll hold it

Sweet Darling
this is my confession to
the crimes of wanting you badly
And Darlin’ if you’re wondering
here’s your answer
yes I like you
I don’t love you
I can’t love you

And I can not stop thinking about you
I can not stop wondering
if you’re constantly
thinking about me
Don’t close your eyes dear I’m still staring
I won’t lie dear I’m still breathing
even though your beauty is breath taking

Sweet Darling
this is my confession to
the crimes of wanting you badly
And Darlin’ if you’re wondering
here’s your answer
yes I like you
I can’t love you
I can’t love you

Once Upon a December – Anastasia

Dancing bears,
Painted wings,
Things I almost remember,
And a song someone sings
Once upon a December.

Someone holds me safe and warm.
Horses prance through a silver storm.
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory…

(Instrumental interlude)

Someone holds me safe and warm.
Horses prance through a silver storm.
Figures dancing gracefully
Across my memory…

Far away, long ago,
Glowing dim as an ember,
Things my heart
Used to know,
Things it yearns to remember…

And a song
Someone sings
Once upon a December
