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.
