I thought maybe this time
We could maybe do it right
We could have a brand new start
But I found out life is not a movie

Maybe laying with you in the daytime
Could just somehow erase all of the past
Then we'd be together at last

But I know now
Life ain't an open door
Gotta put the work in when you want more
And it's like, what did I do this for?
Someone tell me what did I do this for?

Maybe, oh
Baby, oh
I think December is long gone
I think December is long gone

I thought maybe this time
We could maybe just lie to ourselves
We are fine, it feels so alive
Maybe, maybe in some other life
You are mine and stars have aligned

But I know now
Life ain't an open door
Gotta put the work in when you want more
And it's like, what did I do this for?
Someone tell me what did I do this for?

Maybe, oh
Baby, oh
I think December is long gone
I think December is long gone
