With less than 10 days until the release of Red (Taylor’s version), I thought it would be good to share our favourite lyrics from Red.

For me, I don’t think anything can beat these lyrics from Red:

Losing him was blue, like I'd never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know
Somebody you never met
But loving him was red

I could choose nearly all the lyrics in All Too Well too but I’ll settle on this verse:

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

And here’s a few more I love:
State of Grace -
We are alone with our changing minds
We fall in love 'til it hurts or bleeds, or fades in time
And I never saw you coming
And I'll never be the same

Treacherous -
Your name has echoed through my mind
And I just think you should, think you should know
That nothing safe is worth the drive

What are your favourite lyrics from Red??

I finally know which lyrics!

All Too Well

The idea you had of me
Who was she?
A never-needy, ever lovely jewel
Whose shine reflects on you
Not weeping in a party bathroom
Some actress asking me what happened
You
That’s what happened: You
You, who charmed my dad with self-effacing jokes
Sipping coffee like you were on a late night show
But then he watched me watch the front door
All night, willing you to come
And he said, “it’s supposed to be fun…
Turning 21”

Good choice. The 10 minute version is just too beautiful.
