meaning of back to december by taylor swift
Back to December According to Swift, "Back to December" is an apology to a past lover in the form of a song, something that she has never done before.[2][3] She continued, "I've never felt the need to apologize in a song before. But in the last two years I've experienced a lot, [including] a lot of different kinds of learning lessons. And sometimes you learn a lesson too late and at that point you need to apologize because you were careless."[3] Critics have speculated that the song is Swift's apology to her ex-boyfriend, The Twilight Saga actor Taylor Lautner,[2][4] due, in part, to the lyrics "your tan skin, your sweet smile", as well as the hidden lyrics in the booklet, which spelled out "TAY." Lautner confirmed these rumors while promoting the TV series Scream Queens in 2016.[5] "Back to December" was first released as a promotional single from Speak Now on October 12, 2010 as a part of the exclusive campaign by the iTunes Store leading up to the album's release.[6] On November 15, 2010, the song was released as the second single from Speak Now.[7]
