Taylor Swift：Back To December

這首《Back to December》被認為是Taylor Swift寫給男星Taylor Lautner的道歉曲。這首歌由斯威夫特親自創(chuàng)作，收錄在她的最新專輯《Speak Now》中。Swift說這張專輯中的很多歌曲就像是公開的信件：“當我寫每一首歌曲的時候，腦海中都有一個特定的人，我會在歌中告訴他們我曾經(jīng)想親口對他們說的話。”

英文歌詞：

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 means nothing but missing you

Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I 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 leaving

When your birthday passed and I didn't call

Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times

I watched you laughing from the passenger side

And realized I loved you in the fall

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 means nothing but missing you

Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I 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

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 means nothing but missing you

Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine

I go back to December, turn around and make it alright

I go back to December turn around and change my own mind

I go back to December all the time

All the time
