Style Lyrics

Style Lyrics (1989 Album)

Written by Taylor Swift, Max Martin, Shellback & All Payami

Midnight
You come and pick me up
No head lights
Long drive
Could end in burning flames
Or paradise
Fade into view-oh
It's been a while since I have even
Heard from you
I should just tell you to leave
'Cause I
Know exactly where it leads
but I watch us go round and round
Each time

Chorus:
You got that James Dean
Day dream 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 got that long hair, slicked back
White t-shirt.
And I got that good girl thing
And a tight little skirt
And when we go crashing down
We come back in every time
'Cause we never go out of style
We never go out of style

So it goes
He can't keep his wild eyes
On the road
Takes me home
Lights are off
He's taking
Off his coat
I say I heard -Oh
That you been out and about,
With some other girl
Some other girl
He says what you've heard is
True but I
Can't stop thinking about you
And I
I said I've been there too a
Few times

Chorus

Take me home
Just take me home
Just take me home

You got that James Dean
Day dream 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

How You Get the Girl Lyrics

How You Get the Girl Lyrics (1989 album)

Written by Taylor Swift, Max Martin & Shellback

Stand there like a ghost
Shaking from the rain
She'll open up the door
And say, are you insane
Say it's been a long 6 months
And you were too afraid 
To tell her what you want.
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl.

Chorus:Then you say
I want you for worse or for better
I would wait forever and ever
Broke your heart
I'll put it back together
I would wait forever and ever
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl

Remind her how it used to be
With pictures in frames, 
Of kisses on cheeks
Tell her how you must've lost your mind
When you left her all alone,
And never told her why
And that's how it works
That's how you lost the girl

Chorus 

'Cause you know
That I don't want you to go...
Remind me how it used to be
Pictures in frames, Kisses on cheeks
And say you want me...

Chorus

And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl
And that's how it works
It's how you get the girl, girl

And that's how it works
That's how you got the girl.

Blank Space Lyrics

Blank Space Lyrics (1989 Album)

Written by Taylor Swift, Max Martin & Shellback

Nice to meet you
Where you've 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, want to play?

New money, suit and tie
I can read you like a magazine
Ain't it funny, rumors fly
And I know you've heard about me
So hey, let's be friends
I'm dying to see how this one ends
Grab your passport, and my hand
I can make the bad guys good
For a weekend

Chorus:
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
'Cause we're young and we're
Reckless, we'll take this way
Too far
It'll leave you breathless
Or with a nasty scar
Got a long list of ex-lovers
They'll tell you I'm insane
But I got a blank space,
Baby
And I'll write your name.

Cherry lips, crystal skies
I could show you incredible things
Slowly kisses, pretty lies
You're the king, baby, I'm your
Queen find out what you want
Be that girl for a month
Wait, the worst is yet to
Come...

Screaming, crying, perfect storms
I can make all the tables turn
Rose garden filled with thorns
Keep you second guessing like
Oh my god
Who is she?
I get drunk on jealousy
But you'll come back
Each time you leave
Cause darling I'm a nightmare
Dressed like a daydream

Chorus

Boys only want love if it's torture
Don't say I didn't, say I didn't warn
You...
Boy only want love if it's torture
Don't say I didn't say I didn't warn
You...

Chorus

Out of the Woods Lyrics

Out of the Woods Lyrics (1989 Album)

Written by Taylor Swift/Jack Antonoff

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
The rest of the world was black and white
But we were in screaming color
And I remember thinking�

Are we out of the woods yet?
Are we out of the woods yet?
Are we out of the woods yet?
Are we out of the woods?
Are we in the clear yet?
Are we in the clear yet?
Are we in the clear yet?
In the clear yet, good.
Are we out of the woods yet?
Are we out of the woods yet?
Are we out of the woods yet?
Are we out of the woods?
Are we in the clear yet?
Are we in the clear yet?
Are we in the clear yet?
In the clear yet, good.
Are we out of the woods?

Looking at it now
Last December, we were built to fall apart
Then fall back together
Your necklace hanging from my neck
The night we couldn�t quite forget
When we decided
To move the furniture so we could dance
Baby, like we stood a chance
Two paper airplanes flying, flying�
And I remember thinking

Chorus

Remember when you hit the brakes too soon
Twenty stitches in a hospital room
When you started crying
Baby, I did too
But when the sun came up
I was looking at you
Remember when we couldn�t take the heat
I walked out, I said �I�m setting you free�
But the monsters turned out to be just trees
When the sun came up
You were looking at me.
You were looking at me� Oh
You were looking at me.
I remember.
Oh, I remember..

Chorus

"I Know Places", "You Are In Love", and "Wildest Dreams"

Today's Taylor Swift songs are the introductory meanings of "I Know Places", "You Are In Love", and "Wildest Dreams".  Rolling Stone did it again and released three new song titles today in a follow up article 22 Things You Learn Hanging Out With Taylor Swift on September 10, 2014.

Who are they about?

"Wildest Dreams" is Taylor's take on love. Taylor tells Rolling Stone "I think the way I used to approach relationships was very idealistic. I used to go into them thinking, 'Maybe this is the one � we'll get married and have a family, this could be forever.' Whereas now I go in thinking, 'How long do we have on the clock � before something comes along and puts a wrench in it, or your publicist calls and says this isn't a good idea?'"

"You do feel a little bit like you got run over by a truck. You'll be riding in the car with someone and all of a sudden it comes on the radio that he bought you a diamond ring and he's going to propose. And you look at him and go, '...that's not true, right?' And he says, 'No that's not true!' Can you blame me for wanting less of that?"

I'm so sorry Taylor. Dating is no fun.  I really, really, really wouldn't want to to it in the public eye.  I really HOPE you can find someone that doesn't care about any of that and you can just have fun being yourselves.

She did have a glimmer of hope later in the interview.  When asked if she'd ever been in love she said, "Looking back? Not real love. Not the kind that lasts. I think that's still ahead of me � which is really exciting."

"You Are In Love" is a song that was cowritten with Jack Antonoff.  He says it has "a very 'Secret Garden' Springsteen vibe." I have an updated analysis of this song here.

"I Know Places" was cowritten with Ryan Tedder.

Thank you Rolling Stone for releasing more music titles!!! I can't wait to hear them.

"Bad Blood", "I Wish You Would", "All You Had to Do Was Stay", "Style",and "Out of the Woods" Introduction

Today's Taylor Swift SONGS are the introductory meanings of the songs; "Bad Blood", "I Wish You Would", "All You Had to Do Was Stay", "Style", and "Out of the Woods" from her 1989 album. They are featured in the Rolling Stone article, "The Reinvention of Taylor Swift" from September 8, 2014.

Who is each one about?

The Rolling Stone article gives us some clues.

"Bad Blood" is about Katy Perry.    Taylor told Rolling Stone, "For years, I was never sure if we were friends or not. She would come up to me at awards shows and say something and walk away, and I would think, 'Are we friends, or did she just give me the harshest insult of my life?'" Then last year, the other star crossed a line. "She did something so horrible, I was like, 'Oh, we're just straight-up enemies.' And it wasn't even about a guy! It had to do with business. She basically tried to sabotage an entire arena tour. She tried to hire a bunch of people out from under me. And I'm surprisingly non-confrontational � you would not believe how much I hate conflict. So now I have to avoid her. It's awkward, and I don't like it." 

She wanted to make sure people knew it was not about a boy, "But I just want people to know it's not about a guy. You don't want to shade someone you used to date and make it seem like you hate him, when that's not the case. And I knew people would immediately be going in one direction." (Rolling Stone)

Katy stole some of Taylor's dancers and crew from her tour.  An ex dancer of Taylor's Lockhart Brownlie, who formally danced with Katy told Manika Dadson Dec. 20, 2013, "I was with Taylor for the first six months. It was a great experience and she's a great person to work with, but then Katy contacted us." And the rest is history, or a song in this case. Click here for a detailed analysis of this song.

"I Wish You Would" is "about an ex who bought a house two blocks from" Taylor's place. (Rolling Stone)

"All You Had to Do Was Stay" is "about a guy who was never willing to commit (ditto)." (Rolling Stone). Click here for a detailed analysis of this song.

"Style" is "a sexy Miami Vice-sounding throwback about a guy with slicked-back hair and a white T-shirt and a girl in a tight little skirt." (Rolling Stone) Click here for a detailed analysis of this song.

"Out of the Woods" (click here for the updated analysis of "Out of the Woods")  is quite possibly the song I am most excited for from this new group.  It is "a frantic tale" about her relationship with Harry Styles where she says "'every day was a struggle. Forget making plans for life � we were just trying to make it to next week.'" They even ended up in the hospital following a snowmobile accident in Utah in December 2012 because he "lost control and wrecked it so badly that she saw her life flash before her eyes." They both had to go to the ER, but Taylor wasn't hurt as bad.  She said that they went to the hospital and asked everyone to not say anything, and no one did.  (You revealed your own secret Taylor!)
 Harry had a banged up chin, "Remember when you hit the brakes too soon/Twenty stitches in a hospital room." (lyrics from "Out of the Woods"). (Rolling Stone)

I am so excited for all the new songs and can't wait to hear all of them! Don't forget I'll include some more detail analysis once we have the songs in hand.
