Red (Taylor's version)

We blocked the noise with the sound of ‘I need you’

And your lover in the foyer doesn't even know you

Taxi cabs and busy streets

I know someday I'm gonna meet her It's a fever dream

I can't decide if it's a choice getting swept away

I was raised on a farm, no, it wasn't a mansion

And I just wanna tell you

Takin' down the pictures and the plans we made, yeah

The night we snuck into a yacht club party

Now I heard you moved on from whispers on the street

I could see this view a hundred times

And all I've seen since eighteen hours ago

I hold onto this pride because these days it's all I have

Is green eyes and freckles and your smile

And I gave to you my best and we both know you can't say that

A new notch in your belt is all I'll ever be

And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page

That never bring you back to me

I hear the sound of my own voice asking you to stay

Just livin' room dancin' and kitchen table bills

It takes everything in me not to call you

Pale blue sky reflected in your eyes

And for the first time I had something to lose

And it's strange how your face doesn't look so innocent

The kind of radiance you only have at seventeen

Pretending to be a duchess and a prince
