December Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Do you remember the 25th night of December?
Love was changin' the minds of pretenders
While chasin' the clouds away
Our hearts were ringin' in the key that our souls were singin'
As we danced in the night, remember?
How the stars stole the night away, oh yeah

[Chorus]
Hey, hey, hey!
Ba-dee ya, say, do you remember?
Ba-dee ya, dancin' in December
Ba-dee ya, never was a cloudy day

[Bridge]
Ba duda, ba duda, ba duda, badu
Ba duda, badu, ba duda, badu
Ba duda, badu, ba duda

[Verse 2]
My thoughts are with you, holdin' hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love, remember
How we knew love was here to stay
Now December found the love that we shared in September
Only blue talk and love, remember
The true love we share today
[Chorus]
Hey, hey, hey!
Ba-dee ya, say, do you remember?
Ba-dee ya, dancin' in December
Ba-dee ya, never was a cloudy day
There was a...
Ba-dee ya, (dee ya dee ya) say, do you remember?
Ba-dee ya, (dee ya dee ya) dancin' in December
Ba-dee ya, (dee ya dee ya) golden dreams were shiny days

[Bridge]
The bells were ringin', oh oh
Our souls were singin'
Do you remember? Never a cloudy day, yow

[Chorus]
There was a...
Ba-dee ya, (dee ya dee ya) say, do you remember?
Ba-dee ya, (dee ya dee ya) dancin' in December
Ba-dee ya, (dee ya dee ya) never was a cloudy day
And we'll say...
Ba-dee ya, (dee ya dee ya) say, do you remember?
Ba-dee ya, (dee ya dee ya) dancin' in December
Ba-dee ya, (dee ya dee ya) golden dreams were shiny days

[Outro]
Ba-dee ya, dee ya dee ya
Ba-dee ya, dee ya dee ya
Ba-dee ya, dee ya dee ya, dee ya
Ba-dee ya, dee ya dee ya
Ba-dee ya, dee ya dee ya
Ba-dee ya, dee ya dee ya, dee ya

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
