Taylor Swift

Started out when I was younger

Your voice rang in my head

While pictures of our life together ran along the thread

Now that I'm wiser and I see you with her

I remember those times

And how I lost myself

I pictured it between us

Black coffee under trees

Reminiscing on old days when you thought about me

But if I don't have the answers

What's the point in being so caught up in failure?

'Cause I was only seventeen

I loved you tightly in that beat-up van, and I

Told you things I've never told a man

I leaned on you, but you needed me too

Now I'm back in my old car next to where you used to sit

And how I'd curate playlists so you'd think I was cool

Now I'm listening to Taylor Swift, thinking about you

Your mother didn't like me

Though she never knew my name

Her kitchen filled with comfort, nerves, and those games we used to play

What if I'd listened to my friends, would they be here? Would I be crying these words on this page?

Frozen cherries on the dashboard

And I'm eighteen now

But I still haven't figured out when or why, or how

I still don't have the answers

But that's been my way of being so afraid of failure

Wanting you wanting me

I loved you tightly in that beat-up van, and I

Told you things I've never told a man

I leaned on you

But you needed me too

Now I'm back in my old car next to where you used to sit

And how I'd curate playlists so you'd think I was cool

Now I'm listening to Taylor Swift, thinking about you

And now I'm listening to Taylor Swift, thinking about you

Ah, growing pains have me going crazy

Ah, growing pains

I loved you tightly in that beat-up van, and I

Told you things I've never told a man

Now I'm back in my old car next to where you used to sit

Now I'm listening to Taylor Swift, thinking about you

And now I'm listening to Taylor Swift, thinking about you
