Last Night in December

[Verse 1]
Remember kissing me in that white Mustang
Getting lost somewhere in Hawaii
On those backroad two lanes
I was diving in too fast and so deep
Like the surfers in the water
You were a tidal wave crashing over me
Gettin’ lost in each other
We were dancing in the sand
Crashed that party that was happening
Saying crazy things
Making promises
Making dumb mistakes I’d make again

[Chorus]
Watching that sun dive
Into the water and the moonrise
Kissing me under those midnight fireworks on thе beach
You were my North Star
I was Orion in your arms
Wе made a wish that if it fell apart
You’d come back to me
That last night in December
That’s the you I wanna remember

[Verse 2]
I haven’t looked at those pictures in six months
Until right now
How the hell do two people that were so in love
Get so hurt somehow?
I can’t listen to Ghost Stories anymore
But I still believe in magic
It killed me when we lost it
But it was so damn good when we had it

[Chorus]
Watching that sun dive
Into the water and the moonrise
Kissing me under those midnight fireworks on the beach
You were my North Star
I was Orion in your arms
We made a wish that if it fell apart
You’d come back to me
That last night in December
That’s the you I wanna remember

[Bridge]
And I don’t wanna think about the bad times
Or the strangers we became
I just wanna think of us
Still in love like the people in this frame, ooh
Ooh, back when it wasn’t who’s to blame
Before the heartache and all the pain
Before our footprints washed away
And we were watching that sun dive
And the moonrise
And those fireworks on the beach

[Chorus]
Ooh, you were my North Star
I was Orion in your arms
We made a wish that if it fell apart
You’d be coming back to me
That last night in December
That’s the you I’m gonna remember

[Outro]
Ooh
Baby, that’s the you I’m gonna remember, yeah
I still miss you, baby
