I remember/ It was my birthday party/ I was turning twenty-five/ You stood in the middle/ Of the jail bound crowd/ Yet above and outside/ I came over/ To drop off my cheesy pick up line/ Simultaneously hating every/ Syllable of my ill spoken dialect/ I know I always say what i'll regret/ So I walked away like late December/ Someone you wont remember/ Blowing all chance for second chances/ Or even passing glances
Hung over morning/ Sat on the beach outside my apartment complex/ Open a fresh new pack of cigarettes/ Began exhaling everything I could forget/ The morning waves were breaking/ Last night held heavy on my chest/ I asked you to get out of my mind/ But your memory would not comply
One week later/ I saw you outside the coffee shop/ You asked me if I remembered your name/ Gave me your number/ Asked if I'd go on a date/ Then you walked away like late december/ Someone I wont remember/ So i could see how it felt
On our third date you kissed me/ Under the falling sky/ I remember everything/ And on our one year/ The kisses still felt the same/ ... I never thought you'd even remember my name
And for one moment/ I smile on sweet regrets/ When I look into your eyes/ And remember nothing of time/ I stop questioning/ My existence/ And the life I lead is fine/ In this moment/ Everything is okay/ And I can't regret, I regret everything I say/ And I will always remember/ That late December... night.
