Back To December | Taylor Swift

"Back to December" is a country pop ballad with a symphony orchestra and is an apology for misbehaving with an ex. According to Swift, "Back to December" was the first time she apologized to someone through the song.

Although the 1989-born star has never confirmed who the "tan skin" and "sweet smile" guy in "Back to December" is, there are opinions that it is actor Taylor Lautner. The couple fell in love in 2009 and then "went their separate ways" because they could not spend much time together. In 2016, during a promotional event for the movie "Scream Queen," when Taylor Lautner received a teasing sentence from actress Lea Michele: "Didn't she (Taylor Swift) write a song about you?" he admitted at the time: "Yes, she did, that song is called Back to December."

"Back to December" was released as the second single from her third studio album Speak Now (2010) on November 15, 2010. "Back to December" received generally positive reviews. Many people think that this is the highlight of the album Speak Now.

Critics also praised the song's impressive lyrics, indie tune, and improved vocals. The song was a huge commercial success, peaking at number six on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number seven in Canada. It also peaked at number three on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. The song was also quite successful internationally, reaching 24 in New Zealand and 26 in Australia.

The song's music video was directed and written by Yoann Lemoine. The music video received mixed reviews from music critics. Swift performed "Back to December" a few times, notably at the 44th Annual Country Music Awards and the 38th American Music Awards.

🎵Back to December lyrics🎵

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 swallowin' my pride
Standin' in front of you sayin' I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you
Wishin' 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 sleepin'
Stayin' up playin' back myself leavin'
When your birthday passed and I didn't call
Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughin' from the passenger's 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 swallowin' my pride
Standin' in front of you sayin' I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you
Wishin' 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 thinkin'
Probably mindless dreamin'
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 swallowin' my pride
Standin' in front of you sayin' I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December
It turns out freedom ain't nothin' but missin' you
Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I'd go back to December, turn around and make it alright
I'd go back to December, turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time
All the time
