That's the generation that won't promise each other anything
Say we believe in love but still don't want to stand on our toes
We've beaten around the bush for far too long
For far too long now, uh-uh
Yeah, I know I said that I wasn't ready
But there's something in December
That reminds me a little of what really matters
I was young and naive but you get older and understand
Time passes, hearts beat
There's something in December
It becomes hard to understand why the two of us are waiting
Deep down I know you're the one I love, I understand
Time passes, hearts beat in December
We're the generation that can have thousands of friends
And believe we can find love for those we don't really know
Yeah, I was happy when you put that picture up on the fireplace
But I would have preferred to have been there myself, IRL
Yeah, I know I said that I wasn't ready
But there's something in December
That reminds me a little of what really matters
I was young and naive but you get older and understand
Time passes, hearts beat
There's something in December
It becomes hard to understand why the two of us are waiting
Deep down I know you're the one I love, I understand
Time passes, hearts beat in December
A life we have, a life it is
Don't waste time if we don't waste that time with each other
Tell me what it is that we're really waiting for
Hard to understand in December
You get older and understand
Time passes, hearts beat
There's something in December
It becomes hard to understand why the two of us are waiting
Deep down I know you're the one I love, I understand
Time passes, hearts beat in December
