i would sit in that chair again
tell you all the things playing inside my mind
the doubts, worries and most of all
the premonition that it was going to be the last time
we'd ever talk face to face...


if i go back to december...

i would take each day in a slow-mo
hold your hand a little longer,
tell you more about my feelings, and most of all
realize it was already my last chance
to let you know, face to face

if i go back to december...

i would ask you to be brave
to not worry about letting me down easy
tell you the best way is to be real, and most of all
convince you it was better to take the last straw
than drag it and hide from each other's face


if i go back to december...

i won't give room to hope
or bet the distance won't change anything
won't even try to save what was already slipping away
coz deep down i knew, we won't be there
to close this chapter face to face

if i go back to december...

i would be braver and stronger
to tell you my goodbye and not worry
won't hesitate to let go of your arms and most of all,
won't linger on that embrace though it was the last one...
coz now i know, the whole thing wasn't worth any of my time


**Beyond that one december...
