Real life is a funny thing, you know.
I think most of us fear reaching the end of our life
and looking back, regretting the moments we didn't speak out.
When we didn't say I love you.
When we should have say I'm sorry.
So there is a time for silence
and there is a time for waiting your turn.
But if you know how you feel
and you so clearly know what you need to say, you know it.
I don't think you should wait.
I think you should speak now.
Sparks Fly
Drop everything now
The way you move is like a full on rainstorm
And I'm a house of cards
You're the kind of reckless that should send me running
But I kinda know that I won't get far
And you stood there in front of me
Just close enough to touch
Close enough to hope you couldn't see
What I was thinking of
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
Cause' I see sparks fly whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around
I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
My mind forgets to remind me you're a bad idea
You touch me once and it's really something
You find I'm even better than you imagined I would be
I'm on my guard for the rest of the world
But with you I know it's no good
And I could wait patiently but I really wish you would
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
Cause' I see sparks fly whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around
I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
I run my fingers through your hair
And watch the lights go wild
Just keep on keeping your eyes on me
It's just wrong enough to make it feel right
And lead me up the staircase
Won't you whisper soft and slow
I'm captivated by you baby
Like a firework show
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Drop everything now
Take away take away the pain
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Drop everything now
Take away take away the pain
Drop everything now
Meet me in the pouring rain
Kiss me on the sidewalk
Take away the pain
Cause' I see sparks fly whenever you smile
Get me with those green eyes, baby
As the lights go down
Give me something that'll haunt me when you're not around
I see, sparks fly whenever you smile
and sparks fly oh baby
Mine
You were in college, working part time, waiting tables left a small town, never looked back
I was a 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 is a drawer of my things at your place
You learn my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded
You said we'd never made my parents' mistakes
But we've 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 a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
And I remember that fight, 2:30 a.m.
You said everything was slipping right out of our hands
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
And 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
(Hold on), we'll make it last
(Hold on, never turn back)
(Hold on) You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Do you believe it?
We're gonna make it now
And I can see it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah) (I can see it now)
Oh hello Chicago, Illinois.
My name is Taylor.
And welcome to the Speak Now World Tour.
You know I was sitting in my dressing room a little earlier today.
And uh
I heard you guys screaming through the concrete walls of this arena.
And I thought to myself ...
I thought to myself: nothing says this is going to be an amazing crowd
like being able to hear them screaming through concrete walls.
Man I just ...
I get so fascinated standing here from this view point.
It's an excellent view of everybody here tonight.
And I can see everyone.
I can see the best friends who came all laid up over there.
I can see you all the way up of the top with the 'SWIFT' light-up sign.
I can...
And I get ...
I get so fascinated by the individual stories in this room.
You know I mean I just think about the fact that
you guys who made the 'Long Live' sign back there.
That must have taken hours.
And everyone here who waited in line and piled into the same room to be here tonight.
It's just so fascinating to me.
And I am so thankful because the main story of it all
the main story line here is that 13500 of you decide to spend your Friday night with me.
And I was hoping you would be alright with you if I would tell you some of my stories.
Are you ready?
Go!!!
The Story of Us
I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us
How we met and the sparks flew instantly
People would say, "they're the lucky ones"
I used to know my place was a spot next to you
Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat
lately I don't even know what page you're on
Oh, a simple complication
Miscommunications lead to fall out
So many things that I wish you knew
So many walls up I can't break through
Now I'm standing alone
In a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know
Is it killing you
Like it's killing me?
I don't know what to say
Since a twist of fate
When it all broke down
And the story of us
Looks a lot like a tragedy now
Next chapter
How'd we end up this way?
See me nervously pulling at my clothes
And trying to look busy
And you're doing your best to avoid me
I'm starting to think one day
I'll tell the story of us
How I was losing my mind when I saw you here
But you held your pride like you should have held me
Oh, we're scared to see the ending
Why are we pretending this is nothing?
I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know how
I've never heard silence quite this loud
Now I'm standing alone
In a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know
Is it killing you
Like it's killing me?
I don't know what to say
Since a twist of fate
When it all broke down
And the story of us
Looks a lot like a tragedy now
Can I please see you jump?
This is looking like a contest
Of who can act like they care less
But I liked it better when you were on my side
The battle's in your hands now
But I would lay my armor down
If you'd say you'd rather love than fight
So many things that you wish I knew
But the story of us might be ending soon
Now I'm standing alone
In a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know
Is it killing you
Like it's killing me?
I don't know what to say
Since a twist of fate
When it all broke down
And the story of us
Looks a lot like a tragedy now, now, now...
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know
Is it killing you
Like it's killing me?
I don't know what to say
Since a twist of fate
cause we're going down
And the story of us
Looks a lot like a tragedy now
The end
Our Song
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car
He's got a one-hand feel on the steering wheel
The other on my heart
I look around, turn the radio down
He says baby is something wrong?
I say nothing I was just thinking how we don't have a song
And he says...
Our song is the slamming screen door
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date "man, I didn't kiss her, and I should have"
And when I got home ... before I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again
I was walking up the front porch steps after everything that day
Had gone all wrong or been trampled on
And lost and thrown away
Got to the hallway, well on my way to my lovin' bed
I almost didn't notice all the roses
And the note that said...
Our song is the slamming screen door
Sneakin' out late, tapping on your window
When we're on the phone and you talk real slow
Cause it's late and your mama don't know
Our song is the way you laugh
The first date "man, I didn't kiss her, and I should have"
And when I got home ... before I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again
I've heard every album, listened to the radio
Waited for something to come along
That was as good as our song...
Cause our song is the slamming screen door
Sneaking out late, tapping on his window
When we're on the phone and he talks real slow
Cause it's late and his mama don't know
Our song is the way he laughs
The first date "man, I didn't kiss her, man I should have"
And when I got home ... before I said amen
Asking God if he could play it again...
I was riding shotgun with my hair undone in the front seat of his car
I grabbed a pen and an old napkin
And I... wrote down our song
You guys are really really loud.
Wow!!!
I love it. I love hanging out with you guys
because you're loud and you're daning and you know all the words
and you're also very very nice which I appreciate.
You guys are.
You know the nice thing you guys being nice really means a lot to me
because in my lifetime I've run into people who
aren't quite as nice.
They're in fact more mean.
Mean
You, with your words like knives
and swords and weapons that you use against me
You, have knocked me off my feet again
Got me feelin' like a nothing
You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard
Callin' me out when I'm wounded
You, pickin' on the weaker man
You can take me down with just one single blow
But you don't know what you don't know
Someday I'll be livin' in a big ole city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
You, with your switching sides
And your wildfire lies and your humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again
As if I don't already see them
I walk with my head down
Tryna block you out 'cause I never impress you
I just wanna feel okay again
I bet you got pushed around
Somebody made you cold
But the cycle ends right now
Cause you can't lead me down that road
And you don't know what you don't know
Someday I'll be livin' in a big ole city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
And I can see you years from now in a bar
Talkin' over a football game
With that same big loud opinion but
Nobody's listening
Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things
Drunk and rumbling on about how I can't sing
All you are is mean
And a liar
And pathetic
And alone in life
And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean
But someday I'll be livin' in a big ole city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean, yeah
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
Someday I'll be livin' in a big old city
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
(Why you gotta be so mean?)
Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Why you gotta be so mean?
Back to December, Apologize, You're Not Sorry
I'm so glad you made time to see me
How's life? Tell me, how's your family?
I haven't seen them in a while
You've been good, busier than ever
Small talk: work and the weather
Your guard is up and I know why
Because the last time you saw me will still
burn in the back of your mind
You gave me roses and I left them there to die
So this is me swallowing my pride
Standin' in front of you, sayin' I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom aint nothin' but missin' you
Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I go back to December, turn around and make it alright
I go back to December all the time
These days I haven't been sleepin'
Stayin' up playin' back myself leavin'
When your birthday passed and I didn't call
And I think about summer, all the beautiful times
I watched you laughin' from the passenger side and
I realized I loved you in the fall
And then the cold came, the dark days
When fear crept into my mind
You gave me all your love and all I gave you was goodbye
So this is me swallowing my pride
Standin' in front of you, sayin' I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December all the time
It turns out freedom aint nothin' but missin' you
Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine
I go back to December
Turn around and change my own mind
I go back to December all the time
I miss your tan skin, your sweet smile
So good to me, so right
And how you held me in your arms that September night
The first time you ever saw me cry
Maybe this is wishful thinking
Probably mindless dreaming
If we loved again I swear I'd love you right
I'd go back in time and change it but I can't
So if the chain is on your door, I understand
And you said
It's too late to apologize, it's too late
You said it's too late to apologize, it's too late
This is me swallowing my pride
Standin' in front of you, sayin' I'm sorry for that night
And I go back to December
It turns out freedom aint nothin' but missin' you
Wishin' I'd realized what I had when you were mine
You said you're not sorry, no oh no oh
And you're not sorry, no oh no oh
Hey you're not sorry, no oh no oh
Hey, it's me, leave a message, make it hot
Now go stand in the corner and think about what you did
Better Than Revenge
The story starts when it was hot and it was summer
And, I had it all; I had him right there where I wanted him
She came along, got him along, and let's hear the applause
She took him faster than you can say sabotage
I never saw it coming, nor did I suspected it
I underestimated just who I was dealing with
She had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum
She underestimated just who she was stealing from
She's not a saint and she's not what you think
She's an actress, Whoa
She's better known for the things that she does
On the mattress, Whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other people's toys on the playground
Won't make you many friends
She should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge, Ha
She lives her life like it's a party and she's on the list
She looks at me like I'm a trend and she's so over it
I think her ever present frown is a little troubling
And, she thinks I'm psycho
Cause I like to rhyme her name with things, but
Sophistication isn't what you wear, or who you know
Or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go
Oh they didn't teach you that in prep school
So it's up to me
But no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity
She's not a saint and she's not what you think
She's an actress, Whoa
She's better known for the things that she does
On the mattress, Whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other people's toys on the playground
Won't make you many friends
She should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge
I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey
You might have him, but haven't you heard
I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at honey
You might have him, but I always get the last word
Whoa
She's not a saint and she's not what you think
She's an actress, Whoa
She's better known for the things that she does
On the mattress, Whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other people's toys on the playground
Won't make you many friends
She should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge
And do you still feel like you know what you're doing
Cause I don't think you do, Oh
Do you still feel like you know what you're doing
I don't think you do, I don't think you do
Let's hear the applause
See you deserve some applause
Cause you're so much better
She took him faster than you can say sabotage
Speak Now
I am not the kind of girl
Who should be rudely barging in
On a white veil ocassion
But you are not the kind of boy
Who should be marrying the wrong girl
I sneak in and see your friends
And her snotty little family all dressed in pastells
And she is yelling at a bridesmaid
Somewhere back inside a room wearing a gown shaped like a pastry
Thiiiiis iiis surely not what you thought it would be
IIIIIII lose myself in a daydream
Burst in and say
Don't say yes runaway now
I'll meet you when you're out
of the church at the back door
Don't wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
And they said speak now
Fun gestures are exchanged
And the organ starts to play
A song that sounds like a death march
And I am hiding in the curtains
It seems that I was uninvited by your lovely bride-to-be
Sheeee floats down the aisle like a pagent queen
But IIIIII knooooow you wish it was me
You wish it was me
Don't you
Don't say yes runaway now
I'll meet you when you're out
of the church at the back door
Don't wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
And they said speak now
Don't say yes runaway now
I'll meet you when you're out
of the church at the back door
Don't wait or say a single vow
Your time is running out
And they said speak now
I hear the preacher say
Speak now or forever hold your peace
There's the silence
There's my last chance
I stand up with shaking hands
All eyes on me
Horrified looks from everyone in the room
But I'm only lookin at you
I am not the kind of girl
Who should be rudely barging in
On a white veil ocassion
But you are not the kind of boy
Who should be marrying the wrong girl
Don't say yes runaway now
I'll meet you when you're out
of the church at the back door
Don't wait or say a single vow
You need to hear me out
And they said speak now
And you'll say let's run away now
I'll meet you when I'm out of my tux at the back door
Baby I didn't say my vows
So glad you were around when they said speak now
Let's runaway now
Baby I didn't say my vows
So glad you were around when they said speak now
You guys are absolutely unbelievable.
It's like I'm imaging you.
You got amazing. Thank you
You know
I think uh
I think in my mind
I kinda categorize different instruments a sounding like different emotions like
like uh
for example like for me a cello sounds sad
and uh a ukulele I'm playing right now that sounds really happy ,don't you think
I got this in howaii a few years ago and uh...
I've always wanted to play for you in a concert
But it felt like...
it felt like if I was gonna play it for you I'd have to play it on a very happy song, don't you think
You know like a song about falling in love or having a best first day of your entire life
you know things like that
because I feel like I feel like those things not only make you feel happy
but they also make you feel fearless
Fearless, I'm Yours, Hey, Soul Sister
Somethin'bout the way
The street looks when it's just rained
There's a glow off the pavement
You walk me to the car
And you know I wanna ask you to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot
Yeah
Hey, hey, hey~ (hey, soul sister)
Drivin' down the road
Wonder if you know
I'm tryin' so hard not to get caught up now
You're just so cool
Run your hands through your hair
Absent mindedly makin' me want you
And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
So baby drive slow
Till we run out of road in this one horse town
I wanna stay right here in this passenger's seat
You put your eyes on me
Californian now capture every memory
And I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
I won't hesitate no more, no more (I'm yours)
It cannot wait, I'm yours(I'm yours)
Hey, hey, hey~ (hey, soul sister)
Cauz I don't know how it gets better than this
You take my hand and drag me head first
Fearless
And I don't know why but with you I'd dance
In a storm in my best dress
Fearless
When I started writing songs when I was about 12
And uh
you know back then
it kind of started out something that was like more of a hobby
I really liked doing it
And then it became something that was like a daily after-school activity
And then it became all that I ever wanted to do
all I ever thought about dreamed about
It became absolutely everything to me
And I thank you from the bottom of my heart
for making something that means that much to me, a career path
I... uh I tend to write a lot of songs about love and relationships that tends to be
the main topic covered
And I think it's because
we need music the most when we're feeling things really intensely
And I think the most intense times in your life are
when you're either falling in love or losing it
Don't you think
And I think...
I think I fall into the category of the hopeless romantics
And I think you do too
because you're here
I see the things
the tricky thing about us
the tricky thing about the hopeless romantics is that
when we fall in love with someone
when we say hello
and it's magical
We never imagined that hello could someday turn into a goodbye
And when we have first kiss with someone
and it's magical
We never
ever
imagine that someday that could turn into a last kiss
Last Kiss
I still remember the look on your face
Lit through the darkness at 1:58
The words that you whispered
For just us to know
You told me you loved me
So why did you go
Away
I do recall now
The smell of the rain
Fresh on the pavement
I ran off the plane
That July 9th
The beat of your heart
It jumps through your shirt
I can still feel your arms
But now I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is
I don't know how to be something you miss
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
I never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
I still remember
The swing in your step
The life of the party, you're showing off again
And I roll my eyes and then
You pull me in
I'm not much for dancing
But for you I did
Because I love your handshake
Me and my father
I love how you walk with your hands in your pockets
How you kissed me when I was in the middle of saying something
There's not a day when I don't miss those rude interruptions
But now I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is
I don't know how to be something you miss
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
Never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
So I'll watch you live 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
And I hope the sun shines
And it's a beautiful day
And something reminds you
You wish you had stayed
You can plan for a change in weather and town
But I never planned on you changing your mind
So I'll go sit on the floor
Wearing your clothes
All that I know is
I don't know how to be something you miss
Never thought we'd have a last kiss
I never imagined we'd end like this
Your name, forever the name on my lips
Just like our last kiss
Forever the name on my lips
Just like our last
You know you guys have a lot of amazing bands from this part of the world.
Did you know that?
Drops Of Jupiter
Now that he's back in the atmosphere
With drops of Jupiter in his hair, hey, hey
He acts like summer and walks like rain
Reminds me that there's time to change, hey, hey
Since the return from his stay on the moon
He listens like spring and he talks like June, hey, hey
Tell me did you sail across the sun
Did you make it to the Milky Way to see the lights all faded
And that heaven is overrated
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there
Now that he's back from that soul vacation
Tracing his way through the constellation, hey, hey
He checks out Mozart while she does tae-bo
Reminds me that there's a wound to grow, hey, hey
Now he's back in the atmosphere
I'm afraid that he might think of me as plain ol' Jane
Told a story about a man who was too afraid to fly so he never did land
Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the Milky Way
And tell me, did Venus blow your mind
Was it everything you wanted to find
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself out there
Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you
Even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance
Freeze dried romance five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had and . . . me
Tell me did the wind sweep you off your feet
Did you finally get the chance to dance along the light of day
And head back to the Milky Way
Tell me, did you fall for a shooting star
One without a permanent scar
And did you miss me while you were looking for yourself
Na na na ......
Oh......
Na na na ......
Can you imagine no love, pride, deep-fried chicken
Your best friend always sticking up for you
Even when I know you're wrong
Can you imagine no first dance
Freeze dried romance five-hour phone conversation
The best soy latte that you ever had and . . . me
You Belong With Me
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset.
She's going off about something that you said
Cuz she doesn't, get your humor like I do
I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday night
I'm listening to the kind of music she doesn't like
And she'll never know your story like I do
She wears short skirts
I wear T-shirts
She's cheer captain
And I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up
And find what you're looking for
Has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
Walkin' the streets with you and your worn-out jeans
I can't help thinking this is how it ought to be
Laughing on a park bench, thinking to myself
Hey isn't this easy
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
You say you're fine
I know you better then that
Hey whatcha doing with a girl like that
She wears high heels
I wear sneakers
She's cheer captain and
I'm on the bleachers
Dreaming about the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for
Has been here the whole time
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know
Baby....
You belong with me
I remember you drivin' to my house
In the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh
When you know you're about to cry
And I know your favorite songs
And you tell me about your dreams
Think I know where you belong
Think I know it's with me...
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along
So why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time
How could you not know
Baby you belong with me
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along
So why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time
How could you not know
Baby you belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
Dear John
Long were the nights
When my days once revolved around you
Counting my footsteps
Prayin' the floor won't fall through, again
My mother accused me of losing my mind
But I swore I was fine
You paint me a blue sky and go back
And turn it to rain
And I lived in your chess game
But you changed the rules every day
Wonderin which version of you
I might get on the phone, tonight
Well I stopped pickin' up
And this song is to let you know why
Dear John
I see it all now that you're gone
Don't you think I was too young
To be messed with
The girl in the dress
Cried the whole way home
I shoulda known.
Well maybe it's me
And my blind optimism to blame
Maybe its you and your sick need
To give love then take it away
And you'll add my name
To your long list of traitors
Who don't understand
And I'll look back in regret
How I ignored when they said
Run as fast as you can
Dear John
I see it all now that you're gone
Don't you think I was too young
To be messed with
The girl in the dress
Cried the whole way home
Dear John
I see it all now it was wrong
Don't you think nineteen's too young
To be played by your dark twisted games
When I loved you so
I shoulda known
You are an expert at sorry
And keeping lines blurry
And never impressed by me
Acing your tests
All the girls that you run dry
Have tired lifeless eyes
Cuz you burned them out
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
Oh woah oh
Dear John
I see it all now that you're gone
Don't you think I was too young
To be messed with
The girl in the dress
Cried the whole way home
I see it all now that you're gone
Don't you think I was too young
To be messed with
The girl in the dress
Wrote you a song
You shoulda known
Don't you think I was too young
You shoulda known.
Enchanted
There I was again tonight forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place
Walls of insincerity
Shifiting eyes and vancancy vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you
Your eyes whispered "have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette starts to make it's way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks like passing notes in secrecy
And it was enchanting to meet you
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
The lingering question kept me up
2 am, who do you love?
I wonder till I'm wide awake
Now I'm pacing back and forth
Wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say
Hey, it was enchanted to meet you
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
This is me praying that this was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name until I see you again
These are the words I held back as I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Haunted
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
But I never thought I'd live to see it break
It's getting dark and its all too quiet
And I can't trust anything now
And its comin' over you like its all a big mistake
Oh,holding my breathe, won't lose you again
Something's made your eyes go cold
Come on, come on don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong, you're all I wanted
Come on, come on don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn back now I'm haunted
Stood there and watched you walk away
From everything we had
But I still mean every word I say to you
He will try to take away my pain
And he just might make me smile
But the whole time I'm wishin he was you instead
Oh, holding my breath, won't see you again
Something keeps me holding on to nothing
Come on, come on don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong, you're all I wanted
Come on, come on don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone
Can't turn back now I'm haunted
I know, I know, I just know
You're not gone, you can't be gone
No
Come on, come on don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Something's gone terribly wrong
Won't finish what you started
Come on, come on don't leave me like this
I thought I had you figured out
Can't breathe whenever you're gone can't go back
I'm haunted
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You and I walk a fragile line
I have known it all this time
Never ever thought i'd see it break
Never thought i'd see it
This last album "Speak Now" was inspired by a lot of things
that happened to me in my life
But one thing that inspired the song was um
we went on our very first headlining tour a few years ago
And I used to stand there before
I would go on stage and listen to the crowd
making the most amazing magical loud screaming sounds
That is exactly the sound I'm talking about
And I hear and I
first of all I ... I would sit there and think
I can't believe I get to hear that sound one time in my life
And uh...
and I would get a melody stuck in my head
And I could never get this melody out of my head until
I finally wrote it into a song
And uh I called that song "Long Live"
Thank you so much for screaming for us
This song is so completely a hundred percent for you
Long Live
I say remember this moment
In the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds in stands went wild
We were the kings and the queens
And they read off our names
The night you danced like you knew our lives
Would never be the same
You held your head like a hero
On a history book page
It was the end of a decade
But the start of an age
Long live the walls we crashed through
All the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered
I said remember this feeling
I passed the pictures around
Of all the years that we stood there on the sidelines
Wishing for right now
We are the kings and the queens
You traded your baseball cap for a crown
When they gave us our trophies
And we held them up for our town
And the cynics were outraged
Screaming, this is absurd
Cause for a moment a band of thieves
In ripped up jeans got to rule the world
Long live the walls we crashed through
All the kingdom lights shined just for me and you
I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid
Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life
Fighting dragons with you
I was screaming, long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered
Hold on to spinning around
Confetti falls to the ground
May these memories break our fall
We have absolutely loved spending time in your town
And you've been so amazing to us
I mean you guys know every single word and you've danced this entire night
And it means the world to me and every single person you see on stage
Thank you
And you take a moment
And promise me this:
That you'll stand by me forever
But if god forbid fate should step in
And force us into a goodbye
If you have children someday
When they point to the pictures
Please tell them my name
Tell them how the crowds went wild
Tell them how I hope they shine
Long live the walls we crashed through
I had the time of my life with you
Long, long live the walls we crashed through
All the candlelight shined just for me and you
And I was screaming, long live all the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid
Singing long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life
Fighting dragons with you
Long, long live the look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day we will be remembered
I can't help but notice this is a very sparkly glittery crowds tonight
I think...
I see some of you brought things light up
What if what if everybody who has like a cellphone or
flashlight. I don't know who carries around a flashlight
But if you do
could you put it up in the air for me?
Oh that's pretty
You know the thing
the thing about life is that every time you learn a new lesson
There is just another one right around the corner
You know, you never know everything
I think you know for me I just kind of giving up and I'm like
I know nothing compared to what I'm going to know some day
And uh I stoped thinking I knew everything a while ago
I think last time I thought I knew everything I was uh... fifteen
Fifteen
You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors
It's the morning of your very first day
You say hi to your friends you ain't seen in a while
Try and stay out of everybodys way
It's your freshman year and you're gonna be here
For the next four years in this town
Hoping one of those senior boys will wink at you and say
You know I haven't seen you around before
Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen
Feeling like there's nothing to figure out
Well count to ten, take it in
This is life before you know who you're gonna be at fifteen
You sit in class next to a redhead named Abigail
And soon enough you're best friends
Laughing at the other girls who think they're so cool
We'll be out of here as soon as we can
And then you're on your very first date and he's got a car
And you're feeling like flying
And your mama's waiting up and you think he's the one
And you're dancing round your room when the night ends
When the night ends
Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen and your first kiss
Makes your head spin round well
In your life you'll do things greater than dating the boy on the football team
I didnt know it at fifteen
When all you wanted was to be wanted
Wish you could go back and tell yourself what you know now
Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday
But I realized some bigger dreams of mine
Abigail gave everything she had to a boy
Who changed his mind and we both cried
Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen, don't forget to look before you fall
But I've found that 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 at fifteen
La la la la la ... la la la la la ... La la la la la...
Your very first day
You take a deep breath girl
Take a deep breath as you walk through the doors.
La la la la la ... la la la la la ... La la la la la...
Your very first day
Love Story
We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say hello, little did I know
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
And I was crying on the staircase, begging you please don't go
And I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be this princess
It's a love story
Baby, just say yes
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet cause we've dead if they knew
So close your eyes, escape this town for a little while
Oh, oh, oh
Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said stay away from Juliet
But you were everything of me, I was begging you please don't go
And I said
Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story
Baby, just say yes
Romeo save me try to tell me how it feels
This love is difficult, but it's so real
Don't be afraid we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story
Baby, just say yes
I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town
And I said
Romeo save me I've been feeling so alone
I'll keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head, I don't know what to think
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring
And said
Marry me Juliet you'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad you'll pick out a white dress
It's a love story
Baby, just say yes
Oh, oh
We were both young when I first saw you
I love you
Thanks for watching
