Taylor Swift

"Two headlights shine through the sleepless night and I will get you, get you alone Your name has echoed through my mind And I just think you should, think you should know That nothing safe is worth the drive And I will follow you follow you home I'll follow you follow you home"

"'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in, So shame on me now. Flew me to places I'd never been, So you put me down oh."

"Time won't fly, it's like I'm paralyzed by it. I'd like to be my old self again, but I'm still trying to find it. After plaid shirt days and nights when you made me your own, Now you mail back my things and I walk home alone.But you keep my old scarf from that very first week, 'Cause it reminds you of innocence and it smells like me. You can't get rid of it 'cause you remember it all too well, yeah."

"I don't know about you but I'm feeling 22. Everything will be alright if you keep me next to you. You don't know about me but I bet you want to. Everything will be alright if we just keep dancing like we're 22, 22."

"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. Like, ever."

"This is the last time I'm asking you this, Put my name at the top of your lips. This is the last time I'm asking you why You break my heart in the blink of an eye, eye, eye."

"Words, how little they mean when you're a little too late."

"Cause all I know is we said hello And your eyes look like coming home. All I know is a simple name, everything has changed. All I know is we held the door, You'll be mine and I'll be yours. All I know since yesterday is everything has changed."

"And you throw your head back laughing Like a little kid. I think it's strange that you think I’m funny cause He never did. I've been spending the last 8 months Thinking all love ever does Is break and burn and end. But on a Wednesday in a cafe, I watched it begin again."

"And they tell you that you're lucky, but you're so confused 'Cause you don't feel pretty, you just feel used."

"Nice to meet you, where you been? I could show you incredible things. Magic, madness, heaven, sin. Saw you there and I thought. Oh my God, look at that face. You look like my next mistake. Love's a game, wanna play?."

"So it's gonna be forever Or it's gonna go down in flames. You can tell me when it's over If the high was worth the pain. Got a long list of ex-lovers, They'll tell you I'm insane. 'Cause you know I love the players, And you love the game."

"You got that James Dean daydream look in your eye, And I got that red lip, classic thing that you like. And when we go crashing down, we come back every time, 'Cause we never go out of style, we never go out of style. You've got that long hair slick back, white t-shirt And I got that good girl faith and a tight little skirt. And when we go crashing down, we come back every time. 'Cause we never go out of style, we never go out of style"

"Looking at it now. It all seems so simple. We were lying on your couch. I remember. You took a Polaroid of us. Then discovered (then discovered) The rest of the world was black and white. But we were in screaming color. And I remember thinking…"

"But I keep cruising, can't stop, won't stop moving. It's like I got this music in my body and it's gonna be alright.'Cause the players gonna play, play, play, play, play And the haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate. Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, I shake it off, I shake it off. Heartbreakers gonna break, break, break, break, break And the fakers gonna fake, fake, fake, fake, fake. Baby, I'm just gonna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake, I shake it off, I shake it off."

"'Cause baby now we got bad blood. You know it used to be mad love. So take a look at what you've done. 'Cause baby now we got bad blood."

"Your kiss, my cheek I watched you leave Your smile, my ghost I fell to my knees When you're young you just run, but you come back to what you need"

"We need love, But all we want is danger. We team up, Then switch sides like a record changer. The rumors are terrible and cruel, But honey, most of them are true."

"If a man talks shit then I owe him nothing. And if spends my change than he had it coming. They said I did something bad But why it feels so good."

"Oh Lord save me my drug is my baby I'll be using for the rest of my life. Using for the rest of my life (ooh) Don't blame me your made me crazy if it doesn't you ain't doing it right."

"This ain't for the best. My reputation's never been worse, so You must like me for me. We can't make any promises Now can we, babe. But you can make me a drink."

"I'm sorry, But the old Taylor can't come to the phone right now Why? Oh, 'cause she's dead (oh)"

"I'm drunk in the back of the car And I cried like a baby coming home from the bar (oh) Said, "I'm fine, " but it wasn't true I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you And I snuck in through the garden gate Every night that summer just to seal my fate (oh) And I screamed for whatever it's worth 'I love you', ain't that the worst thing you ever heard?"

"We could leave the Christmas lights up 'til January. And this is our place, we make the rules. And there's a dazzling haze, a mysterious way about you dear. Have I known you twenty seconds or twenty years?"

"I’m so sick of running as fast as I can, Wondering if I'd get there quicker if I was a man. And I'm so sick of them coming at me again, 'Cause if I was a man, Then I'd be the man. I'd be the man. I'd be the man."

"I've been the archer. I've been the prey. Who could ever leave me, darling, But who could stay?"

"American stories, burning before me I'm feeling helpless, the damsels are depressed Boys will be boys then, where are the wise men? Darling, I'm scared."

"Windows swung right open, autumn air Jacket 'round my shoulders is yours We bless the rains on Cornelia Street Memorize the creaks in the floor"

"Saying goodbye is death by a thousand cuts Flashbacks waking me up. I get drunk, but it's not enough, 'Cause the morning comes and you're not my baby. I look through the windows of this love, Even though we boarded them up. Chandelier's still flickering here, 'Cause I can't pretend it's ok when it's not. It's death by a thousand cuts."

"You said it was a great love, One for the ages. But if the story's over, why am I still writing pages?"

"Spelling is fun!"

"But I knew you Dancin' in your Levi's Drunk under a streetlight, I I knew you Hand under my sweatshirt Baby, kiss it better, IAnd when I felt like I was an old cardigan Under someone's bed You put me on and said I was your favorite"

"I think I've seen this film before And I didn't like the ending You're not my homeland anymore So what am I defending now? You were my town Now I'm in exile, seein' you out I think I've seen this film before So I'm leavin' out the side door"

"But I can see us lost in the memory August slipped away into a moment in time 'Cause it was never mine And I can see us twisted in bedsheets August sipped away like a bottle of wine 'Cause you were never mine"

"But if I just showed up at your party, Would you have me? Would you want me? Would you tell me to go fuck myself? Or lead me to the garden? In the garden would you trust me, If I told you it was just a summer thing? I'm only 17, I don't know anything, But I know I miss you"

"The more that you say The less I know Wherever you stray I follow Begging for you to take my hand Wreck my plans That's my man You know that my train could take you home Anywhere else is hollow Begging for you to take my hand Wreck my plans That's my man"

"While you were out building other worlds, where was I? Where’s that man who’d threw blankets over my barbed wire I made you my temple, my mural, my sky Now I’m begging for footnotes in the story of your life"

"It's me Hi I'm the problem, it's me At teatime Everybody agrees I'll stare directly at the sun but never in the mirror It must be exhausting always rooting for the anti-hero"

"I could see you in your suit and your necktie Passed me a note saying, "Meet me tonight" Then we kiss, and you know I won't ever tell, yeah And I could see you being my addiction You can see me as a secret mission Hide away and I will start behaving myself"

"And for a fortnight there, we were forever Run into you sometimes, ask about the weather Now you're in my backyard, turned into good neighbors Your wife waters flowers, I wanna kill her"

"'Cause I'm a real tough kid, I can handle my shit They said, "Babe, you gotta fake it till you make it" and I did Lights, camera, bitch smile, even when you wanna die He said he'd love me all his life But that life was too short Breaking down, I hit the floor All the pieces of me shattered as the crowd was chanting "More" I was grinning like I'm winning, I was hitting my marks 'Cause I can do it with a broken heart"

"All that time I sat alone in my tower You were just honing your powers Now I can see it all Late one night You dug me out of my grave and Saved my heart from the fate of Ophelia"

"I had a bad habit Of missing lovers past My brother used to call it 'Eating out of the trash' It's never gonna last"

"How could you not [fancy Taylor Swift]?! I’ve met Taylor once, with Sarah Hyland, and there’s just nothing not to like about her. She’s beautiful, talented, hardworking, and she’s very genuine. It’s a terrible thing, I was actually very surprised! I had read all these nightmare stories, and when I met her I was very pleasantly surprised that she seemed like one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. As for having a thing for Taylor? That’s for me to know and for you to wonder about."

"Taylor Swift is so flawless, and so unattainable, and I don't think it's breeding anything good in young girls."

"I was in this coffee shop in Nashville when I looked up and saw this really tall, pretty girl who looked kind of familiar to me. It couldn't be. Only, yeah, it was: Taylor Swift. I had to go say hi to her. I walked up to her table, feeling kind of shy and dorky, but she looked up and gave me a big smile. "Are you Taylor?" I said. "Yeah," she said. "Hey, my name's Austin Mahone," I said. "I'm a singer on YouTube." Her smile got even bigger. "That's really cute," she said. "Keep up the hard work and never stop believing." "Thanks," I said. "Do you mind if I get a picture with you?" "Of course not," she said. We posed together and my mom took the picture. Little did I know at the time that we'd meet again a year later, under circumstances I couldn't have imagined then. Life is too crazy sometimes."

"I was excited to be achieving one of my goals of reaching a wider audience. I got some help reaching that goal during the summer of 2013 when I was asked to be the opening act for a huge artist I really admired, which was exactly the kind of opportunity I'd been hoping for. I have to tell you, though, when my managers told me who I'd be opening for, I couldn't believe it: Taylor Swift- who I'd always felt a real respect for, especially since she'd been so nice to me back in Nashville. Plus, I admire how she's grown her career and respect her talent. The first time we met backstage, I had to tell her where and how we'd met before. Of course, this time she knew I was a singer because I was her opener, and she smiled at me even bigger than before. "Hey, Taylor, we actually met once in Nashville a couple years ago," I said. "I came up to you in a coffee shop and told you I was a singer on YouTube." "I totally remember you," she said, laughing. "No way," I said. "No, I totally do." I wasn't sure I believed her. But it didn't matter. I was her support act on a lot of her dates that summer, and we always got along well. Plus, I got to meet and hang a little with Ed Sheeran, who was also on the tour. He's a cool guy and very talented. That tour was fun and amazing, and I learned so much from watching Taylor. She's always such a pro."

"I don't give Taylor advice about being famous. She doesn't need it."

"She’s giving a sum of money that is life-changing for these people."
