TT: lovelikefolksongs

we never painted by the numbers, baby

rosé flowing with your chosen family and it would have been sweet if it could have been me

if one thing had been different, would everything be different today?

you know the greatest films of all time were never made

when you are young they assume you know nothing

chase two girls, lose the one

you wear the same jewels that I gave you

I can change everything about me to fit in

cross your heart, won’t tell no other

your braids like a pattern love you to the moon and to saturn

you won’t have to cry or hide in the closet

and though I can’t recall your face I still got love for you

whispers of “are you sure?” “never have I ever before”

your back beneath the sun wishin’ I could write my name on it

make sure nobody sees you leave hood over your head, keep your eyes down

leave the perfume on the shelf that you picked out just for him

you showed me colors I can’t see with anyone else

you taught me a secret language I can’t speak with anyone else 

were there clues I didn’t see?

give me the blues and then purple-pink skies

will you kiss me on the porch in front of all your stupid friends? if you kiss me, will it be just like I dreamed it?

i’m only seventeen, I don’t know anything but I know I miss you

standing in your cardigan kissing in my car again

I would die for you in secret

I’m standing there, on a balcony in summer air / I’m always waiting for you to be waiting below

I sneak out to the garden to see you / And I snuck through the garden gate every night that summer just to seal my fate

2020: Taylor sings a song about loving a woman. Says her 'boyfriend' wrote it. The writer used a pseudonym.

Like the Gardens of Babylon

With your boots beneath my bed

Forever is the sweetest con
