Mine

Mine
(Taylor Swift)

Uh, uh, uh oh
Uh, uh, uh oh

You were in college working part time waiting tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was the flight risk with the fear of fallin’
Wonderin’ why we bothered with love if it never lasts

I say “Can you believe it?”
As we’re lying on the couch
The moment I can see it
Yes, yes I can see it now

Do you remember we were sittin’ there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine

Flash forward and we’re taking on the world together
And there’s a drawer of my things at your place
You learned my secrets and you figure out why I’m guarded
You say we’ll never make my parents’ mistakes

But we’ve got bills to pay
We got nothing figured out
When it was hard to take yes, yes
This is what I thought about

Do you remember we were sitting there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine

Do you remember all the city lights on the water
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine

Uh, uh, uh, oh

And I remember that fight 2:30 AM
As everything was slippin’ right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street

Braced myself for the goodbye
Cause that’s all I’ve ever known
And you took me by surprise
You said “I’ll never leave you alone”

You said
“I remember how we felt sittin’ by the water
And every time I look at you it’s like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter
She is the best thing that’s ever been mine…”

(Hold on, make it last)
(Hold on) Never turn back
(Hold on) You made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter
(Hold on) You are the best thing that’s ever been mine…

(Hold on yes, yes) Do you believe it?
(Hold on yes, yes) We’re gonna make it now
(Hold on yes, yes) And I can see it
(Yes, yes)
I can see it now (See it now, see it now…)

Sparks Fly

Sparks Fly
(Taylor Swift)

The way you move is like a full on rainstorm
And I’m a house of cards
You’re the kind of reckless that should
Send me running but
I kinda know that I won’t get far
And you stood there in front of me
Just close enough to touch
Close enough to hope you couldn’t see what I was thinking of

Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
Cause I see, sparks fly
Whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Give me something that’ll haunt me when you’re not around
Cause I see, sparks fly
Whenever you smile

My mind forgets to remind me
You’re a bad idea
You touch me once and it’s really something
You find I’m better than
You imagined I would be
I’m on my guard for the rest of the but with you
I know it’s no good
And I could wait patiently
But I really wish you would

Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
Cause I see, sparks fly
Whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Give me something that’ll haunt me when you’re not around
Cause I see, sparks fly
Whenever you smile

I’ll run my fingers through your hair
And watch the lights go wild
Just keep on keeping your eyes on me
It’s just wrong enough to make it feel right
And lead me up the staircase
Won’t you whisper soft and slow
I’m captivated by you baby like a fireworks show

Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
Cause I see, sparks fly
Whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Give me something that’ll haunt me when you’re not around
Cause I see, sparks fly
Whenever you smile
And the sparks fly, oh baby smile
And the sparks fly

Back to December

Back to December
(Taylor Swift)

I’m so glad you made time to see me.
How’s life, tell me how’s your family
I haven’t seen them in a while.
You’ve been good, busier then ever.
We small talk, work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why.

Because the last time you saw me is still burned in the back of your mind.
You gave me roses and I left them there to die.

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I’m sorry for that night,
And I go back to December all the time.
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I’d realized what I had when you were mine.
I go back to December, turn around and make it all right.
I go back to December all the time.

These days I haven’t been sleeping
Staying up playing back myself leaving,
When your birthday passed and I didn’t call.
Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughing from the passenger side
Realized that I loved you in the fall.
And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind.
You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye.

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I’m sorry for that night.
And I go back to December all the time.
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I’d realized what I had when you were mine.
I go back to December turn around and change my own mind.
I go back to December all the time

I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile, so good to me, so right,
And how you held me in your arms that September night,
The first time you ever saw me cry.
Maybe this is wishful thinking,
Probably mindless dreaming
But if we loved again I swear I’d love you right.
I’d go back in time and change it but I can’t
So if the chain is on your door, I understand.

But this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I’m sorry for that night,
And I go back to December.
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I’d realized what I had when you were mine.
I go back to December turn around and make it alright.
I go back to December turn around and change my own mind.
I go back to December all the time
All the time.

Speak Now

Speak Now
(Taylor Swift)

I am not the kind of girl who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
But you are not the kind of boy who should be marrying the wrong girl
I sneak in and see your friends, and her snotty little family all dressed in pastel
And she is yelling at a bridesmaid
Somewhere back inside a room wearing a gown shaped like a pastry

This is surely not what you thought it would be
I lose myself in a daydream where I stand and say

Don’t say yes, run away now
I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door
Don’t wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
And they said speak now

Fond gestures are exchanged
And the organ starts to play a song that sounds like a death march
And I am hiding in the curtains
It seems that I was uninvited by your lovely bride-to-be
She floats down the aisle like a pageant queen
But I know you wish it was me
You wish it was me, don’t you?

(Ooh) Don’t say yes, run away now
I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door (ooh)
Don’t wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
And they said speak now
(Ooh) Don’t say yes, run away now
I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door (ooh)
Don’t wait or say a single vow (Say a single vow…)
Your time is running out
And they said speak now

Ooh (Run away now…), la, ah, ah, ah, oh
Ooh, (Say a single vow…) ooh

I hear the preacher say speak now or forever hold your peace
There’s the silence, there’s my last chance
I stand up with shaking hands
All eyes on me
Horrified looks from everyone in the room
But I’m only looking at you

I am not the kind of girl who should be rudely barging in on a white veil occasion
But you are not the kind of boy who should be marrying the wrong girl (Laughs)

(Ooh) So don’t say yes, run away now
I’ll meet you when you’re out of the church at the back door (ooh)
Don’t wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
Said speak now
And you say let’s run away now (Run away now…)
I’ll meet when I’m out of my tux at the back door (ooh)
Baby, I didn’t say my vows (Say a single vow…)
So glad you were around
When they said “Speak now”

Dear John

Dear John
(Taylor Swift)

Long were the nights when my days once revolved around you
Counting my footsteps,
praying the floor won’t fall through, again
My mother accused me of losing my mind,
but I swore I was fine
You paint me a blue sky
and go back and turn it to rain
And I lived in your chess game,
but you changed the rules every day
Wondering which version of you I might get on the phone
tonight
Well I stopped picking up, and this song is to let you know why

Dear John,
I see it all now that you’re gone
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with?
The girl in the dress,
cried the whole way home.
I should’ve known

Well maybe it’s me and my blind optimism to blame
Maybe it’s you and your sick need to give love then take it away
And you’ll add my name to your long list of traitors who don’t understand
And I’ll look back and regret how I ignored when they said “run as fast as you can”

Dear John,
I see it all now that you’re gone
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with?
The girl in the dress,
cried the whole way home

Dear John,
I see it all, now it was wrong
Don’t you think 19 is too young to be played by your dark twisted games, when I loved you so?
I should’ve known

You are an expert at sorry,
and keeping lines blurry
Never impressed by me acing your tests
All the girls that you run dry
with tired, lifeless eyes
cause you burned them out
But I took your matches before fire could catch me,
so don’t look now:
I’m shining like fireworks over your sad, empty town

Dear John,
I see it all now that you’re gone
Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with?
The girl in the dress,
cried the whole way home.
I see it all now that you’re gone

Don’t you think I was too young to be messed with?
The girl in the dress wrote you a song
You should’ve known
You should’ve known
Don’t you think I was too young?
You should’ve known

Mean

Mean
(Taylor Swift)

You, with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me
You, have knocked me off my feet again got me feeling like a nothing
You, with your voice like nails on a chalk board calling me out when I’m wounded
You, picking on the weaker man
Well you can take me down with just one blow
But you don’t know what you don’t know

Someday I’ll be living in a big ole city
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
Someday I’ll be big enough so you can’t hit me
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?

You, with your switching sides and your wildfire lies and your humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again, as if I don’t already see them
I walk with my head down trying to block you out cause I never impress you
I just want to feel okay again
I bet you got pushed around somebody made you cold
But the cycle ends right now cause you can’t lead me down that road
And you don’t know what you don’t know

Someday I’ll be living in a big ole city
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
Someday I’ll be big enough so you can’t hit me
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?

And I can see you years from now in a bar
Talking over a football game
With that same big loud opinion
But nobody’s listening
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things
Drunk and grumbling on about how I can’t sing
But all you are is mean
All you are is mean
And a liar, and pathetic, and alone in life
And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean

But someday I’ll be living in a big ole city
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean, yeah…
Someday I’ll be big enough so you can’t hit me
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
Someday I’ll be living in a big ole city
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
Someday I’ll be big enough so you can’t hit me
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
And all you’re ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?

The Story of Us

The Story of Us
(Taylor Swift)

I used to think one day we’d tell the story of us,
How we met and how the sparks flew instantly
And people would say they’re the lucky ones
I used to know my place was the spot next to you,
Now I’m searching the room for an empty seat
Cause lately I don’t even know what page you’re on
Oh, a simple complication, miscommunications lead to fall out,
So many things I wish that you knew
So many walls that I can’t break through

Now I’m standing alone in a crowded room
And we’re not speaking
And I’m dying to know is it killing you like it’s killing me, yeah
And I don’t know what to say since a twist of fate when it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
Next chapter

How did we end up this way?
See me nervously pulling of my clothes and trying to look busy
And you’re doing your best to avoid me
I’m starting to think one day I’ll tell the story of us
How I was losing my mind when I saw you here
But you held your pride like I should have held mine,
Oh, I’m scared to see the ending why are we pretending this is nothing
I’d tell you I miss you but I don’t know how
Ive never heard silence quite this loud.

Now I’m standing alone in a crowded room
And we’re not speaking
And I’m dying to know is it killing you like it’s killing me, yeah
I don’t know what to say since a twist of fate when it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now

This is looking like a contest of who can act like they care less
But I liked it better when you were on my side
The battle is your hand now
But I would lay my armor down if you said you’d rather love then fight

So many things you wish that I knew
But the story of us might be ending soon

Now I’m standing alone in a crowded room
And we’re not speaking
And I’m dying to know is it killing you like it’s killing me, yeah
I don’t know what to say since a twist of fate, when it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
Now, now, now…!

And we’re not speaking,
And I’m dying to know is it killing you like it’s killing me, yeah!
I don’t know what to say since a twist of fate cause we’re going down.
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
The end

Never Grow Up

Never Grow Up
(Taylor Swift)

You’re little hands wrapped around my finger
And, it’s so quiet in the world tonight
You’re little eyelids flutter cause you’re dreaming
So, I took you in
Turn on your favorite night light
To you, everything’s funny
You got nothing to regret
I’d give all I had, honey
If you could stay like that

Oh, darling don’t you ever grow up
Don’t you ever grow up
Just stay this little
Oh, darling don’t you ever grow up
Don’t you ever grow up
It can stay this simple

I won’t let nobody hurt you, won’t let no one break your heart
And no one will desert you
Just try to never grow up, and never grow up

You’re in the car on the way to the movies
And, you’re mortified
You’re mom’s dropping you off
At, fourteen there’s just so much you can’t do
And you can’t wait to move out someday and call your own shots
But, don’t make her drop you off around the block
Remember that she’s getting older too
And don’t lose the way that you dance around in your PJ’s getting ready for school

Oh, darling don’t you ever grow up
Don’t you ever grow up
Just stay this little
Oh, darling don’t you ever grow up
Don’t you ever grow up
It can stay this simple

And no one’s ever burned you
Nothing’s ever left you scarred
And even though you want to
Just try to never grow up

Take pictures in your mind of your childhood room
Memorize what it sounded like when your dad get’s home
Remember the footsteps, remember the words said
And all you’re little brothers favorite songs
I just realized everything I had is someday gonna be gone

So, here I am in my new apartment
In a big city, they just dropped me off
It’s so much colder than I thought it would be
So, I tucked myself in and turned my night light on
Wish I’d never grown up
I wish I’d never grown up

Oh, I don’t wanna grow up
Wish I’d never grown up
Could still be little
Oh, I don’t wanna grow up
Wish I’d never grown up
It could still be simple

Oh, darling don’t you ever grow up
Don’t you ever grow up
Just stay this little
Oh, darling don’t you ever grow up
Don’t you ever grow up
It can stay this simple

I won’t let nobody hurt you
Won’t let no one break your heart
And even you want to
Please, try to never grow up

Oh, whoa
Don’t you ever grow up
Oh, whoa
Never grow up
Just never grow up

Enchanted

Enchanted
(Taylor Swift)

There I was again tonight
Forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place
Walls of insincerity
Shifting eyes and vacancy
Vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you

Your eyes whispered “Have we met?”
Across the room your silhouette
Starts to make it’s way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks
Like passing notes in secrecy
And it was enchanting to meet you
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you

This night is sparkling, don’t you let it go
I’m wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I’ll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you

The lingering question kept me up
2 am, who do you love?
I wonder till I’m wide awake
And now I’m pacing back and forth
Wishing you were at my door
I’d open up and you would say,
“Hey, it was enchanted to meet you
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you”

This night is sparkling, don’t you let it go
I’m wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I’ll spend forever wondering if you knew…
This night is flawless, don’t you let it go
I’m wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I’ll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you

This is me praying that
This was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name
Until I see you again
These are the words I held back
As I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you…
(Please don’t be in love with someone else
Please don’t have somebody waiting on you
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…) Please don’t be in love with someone else
(OHHHHHHH…!)Please don’t have somebody waiting on you

This night is sparkling, don’t you let it go
I’m wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I’ll spend forever wondering if you knew…
This night is flawless, don’t you let it go
I’m wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I’ll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you…

(Please don’t be in love with someone else
Please don’t have somebody waiting on you)

Better Than Revenge

Better Than Revenge
(Taylor Swift)

Now go stand in the corner and think about what you did
Ha!
Ha, ha!
Time for a little revenge

The story starts when it was hot and it was summer and
I had it all, I had him right there where I wanted him
She came along, got him alone, and let’s hear the applause
She took him faster than you can say sabotage
I never saw it coming, nor did I suspected it
I underestimated just who I was dealing with
She had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum
She underestimated just who she was stealing from

She’s not a saint and she’s not what you think
She’s an actress, whoa
She’s better known for the things that she does on the mattress
Whoa
Soon she’s gonna find stealing other people’s toys on the playground won’t make you many friends
She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge (Than revenge)
Ha!

She looks her life like it’s a party and she’s on the list
She looks at me like I’m a trend and she’s so over it
I think her ever-present frown is a little troubling
She thinks I’m psycho cause I like to rhyme her name with things
But sophistication isn’t what you wear, or who you know
Or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go
They didn’t teach you that in prep school so it’s up to me
That no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity
(Stand in the corner and think about what you did)

She’s not a saint and she’s not what you think
She’s an actress, whoa
She’s better known for the things that she does on the mattress
Whoa
Soon she’s gonna find stealing other people’s toys on the playground won’t make you many friends
She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge
Ha ha!

I’m just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey
You might have him, but haven’t you heard
I’m just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey
You might have him, but I always get the last word
Whoa…!

(What, can’t take it back
What?)

She’s not a saint and she’s not what you (No) think
She’s an actress, whoa (She deserved it)
She’s better known for the things that she does on the mattress
Whoa!
Soon she’s gonna find stealing other people’s toys on the playground won’t make you many friends
She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge

Do you still feel like you know what you’re doing
Cause I don’t (No) think (No) you (No) do (No), oh (No)
Do you still feel like you know what you’re doing (No)
I don’t think you do, I don’t think you do
Let’s hear the applause
Come on show me how much better you are (How so much better, yeah)
See you deserve some applause
Cause you’re so much better
She took him faster than you can say sabotage

Innocent

Innocent
(Taylor Swift)

I guess you really did it this time
Left yourself in your war path
Lost your balance on a tight rope
Lost your mind trying to get it back
Wasn’t it easier in your lunchbox days
Always a bigger bed to crawl into
Wasn’t it beautiful when you believed in everything
And everybody believed in you

It’s all right, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you’ve been
You’re still an innocent
You’re still an innocent

There’s some things you can’t speak of
But tonight you’ll live it all again
You wouldn’t be shattered on the floor now
If only you had seen what you know now then

Wasn’t it easier in your firefly catching days
When everything out of reach
Someone bigger brought down to you
Wasn’t it beautiful running wild ’til you fell asleep
Before the monsters caught up to you

It’s all right, just wait and see
Your string of lights is still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you’ve been
You’re still an innocent
It’s okay, life is a tough crowd
32 and still growing up now
Who you are is not what you did
You’re still an innocent

Time turns flames to embers
You’ll have new Septembers
Every one of us has messed up too
Minds change like the weather
I hope you remember
Today is never too late to
Be brand new

It’s all right, just wait and see
Your string of lights are still bright to me
Oh, who you are is not where you’ve been
You’re still an innocent
It’s okay, life is a tough crowd
32 and still growing up now
Who you are is not what you did
You’re still an innocent
You’re still an innocent

Lost your balance on a tight rope
It’s never too late to get back

Haunted

Haunted
(Taylor Swift)

You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
But I never thought I’d live to see it break
It’s getting dark and it’s all too quiet and I can’t trust anything now
And it’s coming over you like it’s all a big mistake

Oh, holding my breath
Won’t lose you again
Something’s made your eyes go cold

Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something’s gone terribly wrong
You’re all I wanted
Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can’t breathe whenever you’re gone
Can’t turn back now
I’m haunted

Stood there and watched you walk away (Walk away) from everything we had
But I still mean every word I said to you
He will try to take away my pain and he just might make me smile
But the whole time I’m wishing he was you instead

Oh, holding my breath
Won’t see you again
Something keeps me holding onto nothing

Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something’s gone terribly wrong
You’re all I wanted
Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can’t breathe whenever you’re gone
Can’t turn back now
I’m haunted

I know, I know
I just know
You’re not gone
You can’t be gone
No

Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something’s gone terribly wrong
Won’t finish what you started
Come on, come on, don’t leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can’t breathe whenever you’re gone
Can’t go back
I’m haunted

Oh…oh…oh….oh oh oh oh oh…

You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
Never ever thought I’d see it break
Never thought I’d see it

Last Kiss

Last Kiss
(Taylor Swift)

I still remember the look on your face
Lit through the darkness at 1:58
The words that you whispered
For just us to know
You told me you loved me
So why did you go
Away
Away?

I do recall now
The smell of the rain
Fresh on the pavement
I ran off the plane
That July 9th
The beat of your heart
It jumps through your shirt
I can still feel your arms

But now I’ll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is that
I don’t know how to be something you miss
Never thought we’d have a last kiss
Never imagined we’d end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips

I do remember
The swing in your step
The life of the party, you’re showing off again
And I roll my eyes and then
You pull me in
I’m not much for dancing
But for you I did

Because I love your handshake
Me and my father
I love how you walk with your hands in your pockets
How you kissed me when I was in the middle of saying something
There’s not a day when I don’t miss those rude interruptions

But now I’ll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is that
I don’t know how to be something you miss
Never thought we’d have a last kiss
Never imagined we’d end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips

So I’ll watch you live in pictures like I used to watch you sleep
And I feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe
And I keep up with our old friends just to ask them how you are
Hope it’s nice where you are

And I hope the sun shines
And it’s a beautiful day
And something reminds you
You wish you had stayed
You can plan for a change in weather and town
But I never planned on you changing your mind

So I’ll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is that
I don’t know how to be something you miss
Never thought we’d have a last kiss
Never imagined we’d end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips

Just like our last kiss
Forever the name on my lips
Forever the name on my lips
Just like our last

Long Live

Long Live
(Taylor Swift)

I said remember this moment
In the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds and stands went wild
We were the Kings and the Queens
And they read off our names
The night you danced like you knew our lives would never be the same
You held your head like a hero on a history book page
It was the end of a decade
But the start of an age

Long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered

I said remember this feeling
I pass the pictures around
Of all the years that we stood there on the sidelines
Wishing for right now
We are the Kings and the Queen
You trade your baseball cap for a crown
When they gave us our trophies
And we held them up for our town
And the cynics were outraged
Screaming “This is absurd!”
Cause for a moment a band of thieves in ripped up jeans got to rule the world

Long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I’m not afraid
Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
I was screaming long live that look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered

Hold on to spinning around
Confetti falls to the ground
May these memories break our fall

Will you take a moment, promise me this
That you’ll stand by my forever
But if God forbid fate should step in
And force us into a goodbye
If you have children some day
When they point to the pictures
Please tell them my name
Tell them how the crowds went wild
Tell them how our hope they shine

Long live the walls we crashed
I had the time of my life with you
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
And I was screaming long live
All the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I’m not afraid
Singing long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
And long, long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered

Back to December [US Version]

Back to December [US Version]
(Taylor Swift)

I’m so glad you made time to see me.
How’s life, tell me how’s your family
I haven’t seen them in a while.
You’ve been good, busier then ever.
We small talk, work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why.

Because the last time you saw me is still burned in the back of your mind.
You gave me roses and I left them there to die.

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I’m sorry for that night,
And I go back to December all the time.
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I’d realized what I had when you were mine.
I go back to December, turn around and make it all right.
I go back to December all the time.

These days I haven’t been sleeping
Staying up playing back myself leaving,
When your birthday passed and I didn’t call.
Then I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughing from the passenger side
Realized that I loved you in the fall.
And then the cold came, the dark days when fear crept into my mind.
You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye.

So this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I’m sorry for that night.
And I go back to December all the time.
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I’d realized what I had when you were mine.
I go back to December turn around and change my own mind.
I go back to December all the time

I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile, so good to me, so right,
And how you held me in your arms that September night,
The first time you ever saw me cry.
Maybe this is wishful thinking,
Probably mindless dreaming
But if we loved again I swear I’d love you right.
I’d go back in time and change it but I can’t
So if the chain is on your door, I understand.

But this is me swallowing my pride,
Standing in front of you saying I’m sorry for that night,
And I go back to December.
It turns out freedom ain’t nothing but missing you,
Wishing that I’d realized what I had when you were mine.
I go back to December turn around and make it alright.
I go back to December turn around and change my own mind.
I go back to December all the time
All the time.

The Story of Us [US Version]

The Story of Us [US Version]
(Taylor Swift)

I used to think one day we’d tell the story of us,
How we met and how the sparks flew instantly
And people would say they’re the lucky ones
I used to know my place was the spot next to you,
Now I’m searching the room for an empty seat
Cause lately I don’t even know what page you’re on
Oh, a simple complication, miscommunications lead to fall out,
So many things I wish that you knew
So many walls that I can’t break through

Now I’m standing alone in a crowded room
And we’re not speaking
And I’m dying to know is it killing you like it’s killing me, yeah
And I don’t know what to say since a twist of fate when it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
Next chapter

How did we end up this way?
See me nervously pulling of my clothes and trying to look busy
And you’re doing your best to avoid me
I’m starting to think one day I’ll tell the story of us
How I was losing my mind when I saw you here
But you held your pride like I should have held mine,
Oh, I’m scared to see the ending why are we pretending this is nothing
I’d tell you I miss you but I don’t know how
Ive never heard silence quite this loud.

Now I’m standing alone in a crowded room
And we’re not speaking
And I’m dying to know is it killing you like it’s killing me, yeah
I don’t know what to say since a twist of fate when it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now

This is looking like a contest of who can act like they care less
But I liked it better when you were on my side
The battle is your hand now
But I would lay my armor down if you said you’d rather love then fight

So many things you wish that I knew
But the story of us might be ending soon

Now I’m standing alone in a crowded room
And we’re not speaking
And I’m dying to know is it killing you like it’s killing me, yeah
I don’t know what to say since a twist of fate, when it all broke down
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
Now, now, now…!

And we’re not speaking,
And I’m dying to know is it killing you like it’s killing me, yeah!
I don’t know what to say since a twist of fate cause we’re going down.
And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
The end
