new t swift

Even if I don't think we could be friends in real life, you write some killer songs.

You were in college working part time waiting tables
Left a small town never looked back.
I was flight risk with a fear of falling
Wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts.


I say "Can you believe it?"
As we're lying on the couch.
The moment I could see it..
Yes, Yes I can see it now


Do you remember we were sitting there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time.
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter.
You are the best thing that's ever been mine.


Flash forward and we're taking on the world together
and there's a drawer of my things at your place.
You learn my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded.
You say we'll never make my parent's mistakes


But we got bills to pay;
We got nothing figured out.
When it was hard to take
Yes, Yes, this is what I thought about:


Do you remember? We were sitting there by the water.
You put your arm around me for the first time.
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter.
You are the best thing that's ever been mine.


Do you remember all the city lights on the water?
You saw me start to believe for the first time.
You made a rebel of careless man's careful daughter.
You are the best thing that's ever been mine.


And I remember that fight; 2:30 a.m.
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street


Braced myself for the goodbye
Cause that's all I've ever known
Then you took me by surprise:
You said "I'll never leave you alone"


You said "I remember how we felt sitting by the water
And every time I look at you it's like the first time.
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter;
She is the best thing that's ever been mine."


You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine.
