I Bet You Think About Me (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault) [feat. Chris Stapleton]

I Bet You Think About Me (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault) [feat. Chris Stapleton]
(Lori McKenna, Taylor Swift)

3 AM and I’m still awake, I’ll bet you’re just fine
Fast asleep in your city that’s better than mine
And the girl in your bed has a fine pedigree
And I’ll bet your friends tell you she’s better than me, huh

Well, I tried to fit in with your upper-crust circles
Yeah, they let me sit in back when we were in love
Oh, they sit around talkin’ about the meaning of life
And the book that just saved ’em that I hadn’t heard of

But now that we’re done and it’s over
I bet you couldn’t believe
When you realized I’m harder to forget than I was to leave
And I bet you think about me

You grew up in a silver-spoon gated community
Glamorous, shiny, bright Beverly Hills
I was raised on a farm, no, it wasn’t a mansion
Just livin’ room dancin’ and kitchen table bills

But you know what they say, you can’t help who you fall for
And you and I fell like an early spring snow
But reality crept in, you said we’re too different
You laughed at my dreams, rolled your eyes at my jokes

Mr. Superior Thinkin’
Do you have all the space that you need?
I don’t have to be your shrink to know that you’ll never be happy
And I bet you think about me

I bet you think about me, yes
I bet you think about me

Oh, block it all out
The voices so loud, sayin’
“Why did you let her go?”
Does it make you feel sad
That the love that you’re lookin’ for
Is the love that you had?

Now you’re out in the world, searchin’ for your soul
Scared not to be hip, scared to get old
Chasing make-believe status, last time you felt free
Was when none of that shit mattered ’cause you were with me

But now that we’re done and it’s over
I bet it’s hard to believe
That it turned out I’m harder to forget than I was to leave
And, yeah, I bet you think about me

I bet you think about me, yes
I bet you think about me

I bet you think about me when you’re out
At your cool indie music concerts every week
I bet you think about me in your house
With your organic shoes and your million-dollar couch
I bet you think about me when you say
“Oh my god, she’s insane, she wrote a song about me”
I bet you think about me

We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together (Taylor’s Version)

We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together (Taylor’s Version)
[Max Martin, Shellback, Taylor Swift]

I remember when we broke up the first time
Saying “This is it, I’ve had enough”
Cause like

We hadn’t seen each other in a month
When you said you need space… What?
Then you come around again and say
“Baby, I miss you and I swear I’m gonna change.
Trust me.”
Remember how that lasted for a day?
I say “I hate you,” we break up, you call me…
I love you.

Ooh oh oh oh oh
We called it off again last night but
Ooh oh oh oh oh
This time I’m telling you, I’m telling you

We are never ever, ever getting back together
We are never ever, ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never ever, ever, ever getting back together

[Spoken:]
Like ever

I’m really gonna miss you picking fights,
And me falling for it, screaming that I’m right
And you would hide away and find your peace of mind
With some indie record that’s much cooler than mine

Ooh oh oh oh oh
You called me up again tonight but
Ooh oh oh oh oh
This time I’m telling you, I’m telling you

We (We) are never ever, ever getting back together
We are never ever, (Ever) ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me (Talk to me)
But we are never ever, ever, ever getting back together

Ooh oh oh oh oh (Yeah!)
Ooh oh oh oh oh (Yeah!)
Ooh oh oh oh oh (Yeah!)

Uh oh oh oh

I used to think that we were forever, ever and I used to say
“Never say never…”

[Spoken:]
Ughhh… So he calls me up, and he’s like, “I still love you,”
and I’m like, I mean this is exausting. You know, like
we are never getting back together. Like, ever.

No….
We are never ever, ever getting back together
We are never ever, (Ooh…) ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never ever, ever, ever, (ever) getting back together
(We) Ooh oh oh oh oh
Ooh oh oh oh oh
(Getting back together)
(We) Ooh oh oh oh oh (Oh, oh)
(Getting back together) (Yeah) (Ooh oh oh oh oh)
(Ooh oh oh oh oh) You go talk to your friends, (Ooh oh oh oh oh) talk to my friends, talk to me (Talk to me)
We are never ever, ever, ever getting back together

I Knew You Were Trouble (Taylor’s Version)

I Knew You Were Trouble (Taylor’s Version)
[Max Martin, Shellback, Taylor Swift]

Once upon a time, a few mistakes ago
I was in your sights, you got me alone
You found me, you found me, you found me…
I guess you didn’t care and I guess I liked that
And I when I fell hard, you took a step back
Without me, without me, without me…
And he’s long gone when he’s next to me
And I realize the blame is on me

Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I’d never been till you put me down
Oh I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I’d never been
Now I’m lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble

No apologizes, he’ll never see you cry
Pretend he doesn’t know, that he’s the reason why
You’re drowning, you’re drowning, you’re drowning…
And I heard you moved on, from whispers on the street
A new notch in your belt is all I’ll ever be
And now I see, now I see, now I see…
He was long gone when he met me
And I realize the joke is on me
Hey!

I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I’d never been till you put me down
Oh I knew you were trouble when you walked in
So shame on me now
Flew me to places I’d never been
Now I’m lying on the cold hard ground
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble
Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble

And the saddest fear
Comes creeping in
That you never loved me
Or her…or anyone…or anything
Yeah

I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble
I knew you were trouble when you walked in
Trouble, trouble, trouble

Red (Taylor’s Version)

Red (Taylor’s Version)
[Taylor Swift]

Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street
Faster than the wind, passionate as sin, ending so suddenly
Loving him is like trying to change your mind once you’re already flying through the free fall
Like the colors in autumn so bright just before they lose it all

Losing him was blue, like I’d never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you’ve never met
But loving him was red
Loving him was red

Touching him was like realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you
Memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words to your old favorite song
Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there’s no right answer
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out that love could be that strong

Losing him was blue, like I’d never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met
But loving him was red, oh red, burning red

Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
Tell myself it’s time now gotta let go
But moving on from him is impossible when I still see it all in my head…in burning red
Burning, it was red

Losing him was blue, like I’d never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you’ve never met
Cause loving him was red, yeah yeah red, burning red

And that’s why he’s spinning around in my head
Comes back to me in burning red, yeah, yeah
Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street

The Lucky One (Taylor’s Version)

The Lucky One (Taylor’s Version)
[Taylor Swift]

New to town with a made up name
In the angel’s city chasing fortune and fame
And the camera flashes make it look like a dream
You had it figured out since you were in school
Everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool
So overnight, you look like a 60s queen
Another name goes up in lights
Like diamonds in the sky…

And they’ll tell you now
You’re the lucky one
Yeah, they’ll tell you now
You’re the lucky one
But can you tell me now
You’re the lucky one
Oh, oh, oh…

Now it’s big black cars and Riviera views
And your lover in the foyer doesn’t even know you
And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page
And they tell you that you’re lucky but you’re so confused
Cause you don’t feel pretty, you just feel used
And all the young things line up to take your place
Another name goes up in lights
You wonder if you’ll make it out alive

And they’ll tell you now
You’re the lucky one
Yeah, they’ll tell you now
You’re the lucky one
But can you tell me now
You’re the lucky one
Oh, oh, oh…

It was a few years later I showed up here
And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared
How you took the money and your dignity and got the hell out
They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere
Chose the rose garden over Madison Square
And it took some time, but I understand it now…
Cause now my name is up in lights
But I think you got it right

Let me tell you now
You’re the lucky one
Let me tell you now
You’re the lucky one
Let me tell you now
You’re the lucky one
Oh, oh, oh…

And they’ll tell you now
You’re the lucky one
Yeah, they’ll tell you now
You’re the lucky one
But can you tell me now
You’re the lucky one
Oh, oh, oh…

I Almost Do (Taylor’s Version)

I Almost Do (Taylor’s Version)
[Taylor Swift]

I bet this time of night you’re still up
I bet you’re tired from a long hard week
I bet you’re sittin’ in your chair by the window
Looking out at the city and I bet
Sometimes you wonder about me

And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me
Not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Every time I don’t, I almost do
I almost do

I bet you think I either moved on or hate you
Cause each time you reach out, there’s no reply
I bet it never, ever occurred to you
That I can’t say hello to you and risk another goodbye

And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me
Not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Every time I don’t, I almost do
I almost do

We made quite a mess, babe
It’s probably better off this way
And I confess baby
In my dreams your touching my face
And asking me I’d want to try again with you
And I almost do

And I just want to tell you
It takes everything in me
Not to call you
And I wish I could run to you
And I hope you know that
Every time I don’t, I almost do
I almost do
