The best thing I ever did 00:08

December, as we end the year together, I remember 00:20

Our memories pile up like the snow 00:26

So many words I saved for you linger in my mind 00:31

Makes me nervous 00:36

Used to feel lonely and empty 00:38

But December is no longer lonely 00:42

The best thing I ever did 00:47

Was that I met you 00:50

The best thing I never did 00:56

Was that I never broke up with you, and that I am still with you 01:01

All I wanna do All I wanna do 01:06

Just like this, like this, like this, like this, the two of us forever 01:10

All I wanna do All I wanna do 01:15

Just like this, like this, like this, like this, let us never change 01:19

Though I don’t notice, it just keeps showing 01:26

My friends are teasing that I’m smiling from ear to ear the whole day 01:30

Even when I’m alone, I feel as if 01:36

You are behind me, my ears keep getting red 01:38

I can’t help it, I keep thinking of you 01:40

Used to feel lonely and empty 01:44

But December is no longer lonely 01:49

The best thing I ever did 01:53

Was that I met you 01:56

The best thing I never did 02:03

Was that I never broke up with you, and that I am still with you 02:07

As the year goes by, Little by little 02:13

So many things have happened 02:15

But when I think about what they meant 02:17

Why are they the moments I spent with you 02:21

I think I might be in love 02:26

The best thing I ever did 02:31

Was that I met you 02:33

The best thing I never did 02:39

Was that I never broke up with you, and that I am still with you 02:44

All I wanna do All I wanna do 02:49

Just like this, like this, like this, like this, the two of us forever 02:53

All I wanna do All I wanna do 02:58

Just like this, like this, like this, like this, let us never change 03:02

The best thing I ever did

December, as we end the year together, I remember

Our memories pile up like the snow

So many words I saved for you linger in my mind

Makes me nervous

Used to feel lonely and empty

But December is no longer lonely

The best thing I ever did

Was that I met you

The best thing I never did

Was that I never broke up with you, and that I am still with you

All I wanna do All I wanna do

Just like this, like this, like this, like this, the two of us forever

All I wanna do All I wanna do

Just like this, like this, like this, like this, let us never change

Though I don’t notice, it just keeps showing

My friends are teasing that I’m smiling from ear to ear the whole day

Even when I’m alone, I feel as if

You are behind me, my ears keep getting red

I can’t help it, I keep thinking of you

Used to feel lonely and empty

But December is no longer lonely

The best thing I ever did

Was that I met you

The best thing I never did

Was that I never broke up with you, and that I am still with you

As the year goes by, Little by little

So many things have happened

But when I think about what they meant

Why are they the moments I spent with you

I think I might be in love

The best thing I ever did

Was that I met you

The best thing I never did

Was that I never broke up with you, and that I am still with you

All I wanna do All I wanna do

Just like this, like this, like this, like this, the two of us forever

All I wanna do All I wanna do

Just like this, like this, like this, like this, let us never change

The best thing I ever did
