December
Wilsen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

December air blows sweet tonight
Through barren road and land.
This old story's lost its sense.
Did you have to tell him
Right before I go?
What a predicament we've found, my friend.

And nevermind what's spoken,
Nevermind what's done.
We couldn't give it all,
But we gave it some.

Old mountainfront sing me rhyme
Of love in black and white.
I'm afraid we dont have long.

Did you know I wrote you?
Did you know I tried?
Ten thousand words and hundreds of lies.
But nevermind what's spoken,
Nevermind what's done.
We couldn't give it all,
But we gave it some.
We couldn't give it all,
So we gave it some.

Nevermind what's spoken,
Nevermind what's done.
We are only portions of this greater sum,
And there is no deceit here,
This is only right.
For too long the cutups in the dark of night.

And nevermind what's spoken,
Nevermind, what's done is done.
We couldn't give it all,
But we gave it some.




I couldn't give it all,
But my love I gave it some.

Overall Meaning

The Wilsen song "December" is an introspective ballad that explores the themes of love, loss, and regret. The song opens with the suggestion that the December air is sweet, but it is juxtaposed with the barren landscape that surrounds the singer. This symbolizes how the love that once thrived between two people is now absent, leaving them hopeless and alone. The phrase "This old story's lost its sense" indicates that the relationship has become convoluted and complicated, and the singer feels that it has lost its value and meaning.


The next verse presents the predicament that the singer and his friend find themselves in. The singer's friend tells his lover about their past love affair just before the singer is about to leave. This puts the singer and his friend in a difficult and distressing position, reflecting the complexity of their love triangle.


The song's chorus is a repetitive reminder that despite all the difficulties they faced, the singer and his lover did try their best to make the relationship work. They couldn't give it all, but they did give it some. The song's lyrics are imbued with a sense of melancholy and longing as they speak to the reality that despite trying their hardest, the relationship may still falter.


In conclusion, "December" is a poignant song that delves deep into the complexities of love and relationships. The lyrics are introspective and heartfelt, exploring the ways we try to reconcile feelings of love and regret.
