I have tried
You know I've tried
But maybe this just
Wasn't meant to be
Should I cry
Then say goodbye?
Would that numb my hope for
Some sort of fantasy?
Close your eyes
Drift away with me to nowhere
Please just stay with me
I can barely see
Why you'd have to leave tonight
I could have found one way to let this go
But I've been there all before so now I know
I couldn't forget
December, May - December
May we finally be free to be free
Allow things be
I remember
December, May - December
It all began a melody
But then the memory imposed an emptiness
Baby see, just like I see
Journey on with me
Journey on with me
Close your eyes
Drift away with me to nowhere
Please just stay with me
I can barely see
Why you'd have to leave me dry
I could have found one way to let this go
But I've been there all before so now I know
I couldn't forget
December, May - December
May we finally be free to be free
Allow things be
I remember
December, May - December
It's a pain for me to recall
But I do so every day
Since it's getting harder to move on
Let's return to our selfish ways
This December like we were back in May
I have tried
You know I've tried
But maybe this just
Wasn't meant to be
