[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 saving all my loving 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
[Bridge]
Hey, what do you say?
'Cause I been all around the world and they just ain’t the same
Hey, what do you say?
Without my baby, I go crazy and I just gotta scream
Ha!
[Breakdown]
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
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
I've been to London, been to Paris, Australia and Rome
