Back To September/Apologize/You're Not Sorry (Live)
I'm so glad you made time to see me. How's life? Tell me how's your family. I haven't seen them in a while. You've been good, busier than ever, We small talk, work and the weather, Your guard is up and I know why. Because the last time you saw me Is still burned in the back of your mind. You gave me roses and I left them there to die.
So this is me swallowing my pride, Standing in front of you saying, "I'm sorry for that night," And I go back to September all the time. It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you. Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine. I'd go back to September, turn around and make it all right. I go back to September all the time.
These days I haven't been sleeping, Staying up, playing back myself leavin'. When your birthday passed and I didn't call. And I think about summer, all the beautiful times, I watched you laughing from the passenger side. Realized that I loved you in the fall.
And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind You gave me all your love and all I gave you was "Goodbye".
So this is me swallowing my pride Standing in front of you saying, "I'm sorry for that night." And I go back to September all the time. It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you, Wishing I'd realized what I had when you were mine. I'd go back to September, turn around and change my own mind I go back to September all the time.
I miss your tanned skin, your sweet smile, So good to me, so right And how you held me in your arms that September night -- The first time you ever saw me cry.
Maybe this is wishful thinking, Probably mindless dreaming, But if we loved again, I swear I'd love you right.
I'd go back in time and change it but I can't. So if the chain is on your door I understand.
But this is me swallowing my pride Standing in front of you saying, "I'm sorry for that night." And I go back to September... It turns out freedom ain't nothing but missing you, Wishing I'd realize what I had when you were mine. I'd go back to Septemberr, turn around and make it all right. I'd go back to September, turn around and change my own mind
I go back to September all the time. All the time.
