It is well known that Taylor Swift can pen the catchiest tunes. She is one of the biggest, if not the biggest, music writer and performer of our time. Her music has touched the hearts and souls of girls, and the occasional guy, for the past decade, and throughout that time she has only gotten better.
When Taylor isn't touring the world, setting records or winning Grammys, she's being a staple for women's rights, donating to charities and forming the coolest squad, all while establishing herself as a style icon. She told us after her "1989" Tour that she was taking a break *insert the world crying*. Hopefully that break doesn't last too long, but it is a well-deserved break.
So in honor of Queen Tay stepping back from music, here are 10 of her best lyrics from her five albums.
1. "All Too Well"
"You call me up again just to break me like a promise / So casually cruel in the name of being honest / I'm a crumbled up piece of paper lying here"
2. "Sad Beautiful Tragic"
"Kiss me, try to fix it / Could you just try to listen? / Hang up, give up / For the life of us we can't get back"
3. "Clean"
"You're still all over me / Like a wine-stained dress I can't wear anymore / Hung my head as I lost the war / And the sky turned black like the perfect storm"
4. "Dear John"
"But I took your matches before fire could catch me so don't look now / I'm shining like fireworks over your sad, empty town"
5. "Last Kiss"
"So I'll watch your life in pictures like I used to watch you sleep / And I feel you forget me like I used to feel you breathe / And I keep up with our old friends just to ask them how you are / Hope it's nice where you are"
6. "Forever and Always"
"Oh, I stare at the phone / He still hasn't called / And then you feel so low / You can't feel nothing at all"
7. "Fifteen"
"Cause when you're fifteen / And somebody tells you they love you / You're gonna believe them/ And when you're fifteen don't forget to look before you fall / I found time can heal most anything / And you just might find who you're supposed to be / I didn't know who I was supposed to be / Fifteen"
8. "Cold As You"
" And now that I'm sitting here thinking it through / I've never been anywhere cold as you"
9. "Tied Together With a Smile"
"I guess it's true that love is all you wanted / Cause you're giving it away like it's extra change / Hoping it will wind up in his pocket / But he leaves you out like a penny in the rain"
10. "This Love"
"Tossing, turning, struggled through the night with someone new / Lantern burning, flickered in my mind for only you"
Believe me, this is not the only 10 good/amazing/mind-blowing lyrics Taylor has. You could insert the entirety of a few of her song's lyrics, because they are just phenomenal. This list is a good taster with a couple song lyrics from each album. Now, you'll be pulling out all your Taylor CD's (or going and buying them if you don't have them already) to jam to for the next few days, because I know I am.
