Permanent December Lyrics
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
'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
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, go
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 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 them through
'Cause I'm saving all my loving for someone
And it's you
'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 a light on (a light on)
Wait for me and just leave the light on
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, go
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
Hey what do you say?
'Cause I've 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
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 a light on
Wait for me and just leave the light on
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, go
Won't let you go, go, go, go
Won't let you go, no
Go, go, go, go, no, no, no, no
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
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
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, go
Won't let you go, go, go, go
Won't let you go, no
Go, go, go, go, no, no, no, no
I met a boy in every city, no one kept me amused
But don't call me a Lolita
'Cause I don't let them through
'Cause I'm saving all my loving for someone
And it's you
When I said I didn't need you so
Miss you bad so now I'm coming home
So you better leave a light on (a light on)
Wait for me and just leave the light on
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, go
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, no
Go, go, go, go, no, no, no, no
'Cause I've 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
When I said I didn't need you so
Miss you bad so now I'm coming home
So you better leave a light on
Wait for me and just leave the light on
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, go
Won't let you go, go, go, go
Won't let you go, no
Go, go, go, go, no, no, no, no

I think in this song she is talking about she could almost have any guy in the world that she wanted but she would rather be home with the one boy she has always loved and how she is coming home, hoping that he is waiting for her, and hoping he'll take her back because she isn't going to make the same mistake she did before and let him go
