Permanent December

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I've been to London, been to Paris, Australia and Rome There's sexy boys in every city, but they're not what I want Some got money, some got fame Some got cars and the clothes But if it just ain't you, then I don't wanna know [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause baby, now I realize that I was wrong When I said I didn't need you so Miss you bad, so now I'm coming home So you better leave the light on Wait for me and just leave the light on [Chorus] It's been like a permanent December So much colder than I can remember When I get you back, this time I swear that I won't Won't ever let you go Won't let you go, no Won't let you go, go, go, go Won't let you go, no Go, go, go, go - no, no, no, no [Verse 2] I've been to New York, been to L.A. and to Baton Rouge I met a boy in every city, no one kept me amused But don't call me a Lolita, 'cause I don't let 'em through 'Cause I'm savin' all my lovin' for someone and it's you [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause baby, now I realize that I was wrong When I said I didn't need you so Miss you bad, so now I'm coming home So you better leave the light on Wait for me and just leave the light on [Chorus] It's been like a permanent December So much colder than I can remember When I get you back, this time I swear that I won't Won't ever let you go Won't let you go, no Won't let you go, go, go, go Won't let you go, no Go, go, go, go - no, no, no, no Won't let you go, go, go, go Won't let you go, no Go, go, go, go - no, no, no, no [Bridge] Hey, what do you say?
