It's you and me, that's my whole world the bar (oh) I'd be just like Leo But we figured you out
Said, "I'm fine, " but it wasn't true In Saint-Tropez We all know now, we all got crowns
They whisper in the hallway, "She's a bad,
I don't wanna keep secrets just to keep you You need to calm down
bad girl" (okay)

The whole school is rolling fake dice Every night that summer, just to seal my
You play stupid games, you win stupid *chorus
fate (oh)
prizes What's it like to brag about
And I scream, "For whatever it's worth
It's you and me, there's nothing like this I love you, ain't that the worst thing you Raking in dollars 5. Lover
Miss Americana and The Heartbreak Prince ever heard?" And getting bitches and models We could leave the Christmas lights up 'til

We're so sad, we paint the town blue And it's okay if you're mad And this is our place, we make the rules
*chorus If I was out flashing my dollars And there's a dazzling haze, a mysterious
Voted most likely to run away with you
#ending I'd be a bitch, not a baller way about you dear
They paint me out to be bad Have I known you 20 seconds or 20 years?

You know that I bought it They'd say I played the field before I found And ah, take me out, and take me home
someone to commit to 4. You Need to Calm Down You're my, my, my, my
Killing me slow, out the window And that would be ok You are somebody that we don't know Lover

What doesn't kill me makes me want you This is our place, we make the call
When you could be GLAAD? (You could be And I'm highly suspicious that everyone
more I'd be a fearless leader GLAAD) who sees you wants you
I'd be an alpha type Sunshine on the street at the parade I've loved you three summers now, honey,
*And it's new, the shape of your body
It's blue, the feeling I've got, and it's ooh, When everyone believes ya But you would rather be in the dark ages but I want 'em all

It's a cruel summer Can I go where you go?
It's cool, that's what I tell 'em *I'm so sick of running as fast as I can Can we always be this close forever and
You just need to take several seats and
No rules in breakable heaven but ooh, Wondering if I'd get there quicker ever?

We say that we'll just screw it up in these I'd be the man *So, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh stand?
trying times You need to calm down With every guitar string scar on my hand
We're not trying They'd say I hustled I take this magnetic force of a man to be
You're being too loud
Put in the work my lover

And ah, take me out, and take me home All the king's horses, all the king's men books about me if I ever make it sneaking in

You're my, my, my, my 'Cause all of my enemies started out tell which smiles I'm faking Like you were a trophy or a champion ring
Oh, you're my, my, my, my friends And the heart I know I'm breaking is my And there was one prize I'd cheat to win

years It's the kind of cold, fogs up windshield 11. Willow you scars
I wake in the night, I pace like a ghost glass I'm like the water when your ship rolled in Now this is an open-shut case
The room is on fire, invisible smoke But I felt it when I passed you that night Guess I should've known from the look on
And all of my heroes die all alone There's an ache in you put there by the Rough on the surface but you cut through your face
Help me hold onto you ache in me like a knife Every bait and switch was a work of art
But if it's all the same to you And if it was an open-shut case
I've been the archer It's the same to me I never would've known from that look on 12. Majorie
I've been the prey your face
*We could call it even Never be so polite, you forget your power
Screaming, who could ever leave me, Lost in your current like a priceless wine
You could call me "Babe" for the weekend Never wield such power, you forget to be
darling?
'Tis the damn season polite
But who could stay?
(I see right through me, I see right through Write this down The more that you say
And if I didn't know better
me) I'm staying at my parents' house The less I know
I'd think you were listening to me now
And the road not taken looks real good Wherever you stray
If I didn't know better
'Cause they see right through me now I follow
I'd think you were still around
They see right through me And it always leads to you and my I'm begging for you to take my hand
What died didn't stay dead
They see right through hometown
What died didn't stay dead Your mom's ring in your pocket 14. Tolerate It I-Island breeze and lights down low
You're alive, you're alive in my head My picture in your wallet I sit and watch you readin' with your head No one has to know
What died didn't stay dead Your heart was glass, I dropped it low
What died didn't stay dead Champagne problems In the middle of the night, in my dreams
I wake and watch you breathin' with your
You're alive, so alive You should see the things we do, baby
You told your family for a reason eyes closed (mmm)
The autumn chill that wakes me up You couldn't keep it in I sit and watch you In the middle of the night, in my dreams
You loved the amber skies so much Your sister splashed out on the bottle I notice everything you do or don't do I know I'm gonna be with you
Long limbs and frozen swims Now no one's celebrating You're so much older and wiser, and I So I'll take my time
You'd always go past where our feet could Are you ready for it?
touch Dom Pérignon, you brought it *I wait by the door like I'm just a kid
And I complained the whole way there No crowd of friends applauded Use my best colors for your portrait Knew I was a robber first time that he saw
The car ride back and up the stairs Your hometown skeptics called it me
Lay the table with the fancy shit
I should've asked you questions Champagne problems Stealing hearts and running off and never
And watch you tolerate it
I should've asked you how to be saying sorry
You had a speech, you're speechless If it's all in my head, tell me now
Asked you to write it down for me But if I'm a thief, then he can join the heist
Love slipped beyond your reaches Tell me I've got it wrong somehow And we'll move to an island, and
Should've kept every grocery store receipt
And I couldn't give a reason I know my love should be celebrated
'Cause every scrap of you would be taken
Champagne problems But you tolerate it And he can be my jailer, Burton to this
from me
Taylor
Watched as you signed your name Your Midas touch on the Chevy door Every lover known in comparison is a
Marjorie November flush and your flannel cure While you were out buildin' other worlds,
failure
All your closets of backlogged dreams "This dorm was once a madhouse" where was I?
I forget their names now, I'm so very tame
And how you left them all to me I made a joke, "Well, it's made for me" Where's that man who'd throw blankets now
over my barbed wire? Never be the same now, now
What died didn't stay dead How evergreen, our group of friends I made you my temple, my mural, my sky
What died didn't stay dead Don't think we'll say that word again
Now I'm beggin' for footnotes in the story I-I-I see how this is gon' go (go)
You're alive, you're alive in my head And soon they'll have the nerve to deck
of your life Touch me and you'll never be alone
What died didn't stay dead the halls
Drawin' hearts in the byline I-Island breeze and lights down low (low)
What died didn't stay dead That we once walked through
Always takin' up too much space or time No one has to know
You're alive, so alive
(No one has to know)
And if I didn't know better One for the money, two for the show You assume I'm fine, but what would you
I'd think you were singing to me now I never was ready, so I watch you go do if I In the middle of the night, in my dreams
If I didn't know better Sometimes you just don't know the answer (eh)
I'd think you were still around 'Til someone's on their knees and asks you *chorus You should see the things we do (we do),
I know better baby
But I still feel you all around "She would've made such a lovely bride
15. Ready for It In the middle of the night, in my dreams
I know better What a shame she's fucked in the head, "
Knew he was a killer first time that I saw (my dreams)
But you're still around they said
him I know I'm gonna be with you
But you'll find the real thing instead
Wonder how many girls he had loved and So I'll take my time
She'll patch up your tapestry that I shred
13. Champagne Problems left haunted Are you ready for it?
You booked the night train for a reason And hold your hand while dancing But if he's a ghost, then I can be a phantom Oh, are you ready for it?
So you could sit there in this hurt Never leave you standing Holdin' him for ransom

* # chorus We are the kings and the queens And long, long live the look on your face
You traded your baseball cap for a crown And bring on all the pretenders
I don't trust nobody and nobody trusts me When they gave us our trophies One day, we will be remembered
I'll be the actress starring in your bad And we held them up for our town
dreams And the cynics were outraged
I don't trust nobody and nobody trusts me Screaming, "This is absurd"
I'll be the actress starring in your bad 'Cause for a moment, a band of thieves
dreams In ripped up jeans got to rule the world
I don't trust nobody and nobody trusts me
I'll be the actress starring in your bad Long live the walls we crashed through
dreams How the kingdom lights shined just for me
I don't trust nobody and nobody trusts me and you
I'll be the actress starring in your bad I was screaming, "Long live all the magic
dreams we made"
And bring on all the pretenders, I'm not
I'm sorry afraid
But the old Taylor can't come to the phone Long live all the mountains we moved
right now I had the time of my life fighting dragons
Why? Oh, 'cause she's dead (oh) with you
I was screaming, "Long live that look on
#
your face"
And bring on all the pretenders
19. Enchanted One day we will be remembered
