Fearless
Taylor Swift Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There's 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
Oh, yeah

We're drivin' down the road
I wonder if you know
I'm tryin' so hard not to get caught up now
But 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
'Til we run out of road in this one horse town
I wanna stay right here in this passenger seat
You put your eyes on me
In this moment now capture it, remember it

'Cause 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

Oh, oh

Well, you stood there with me in the doorway
My hands shake, I'm not usually this way but
You pull me in and I'm a little more brave
It's the first kiss, it's flawless, really something
It's fearless

Ohh-oh-ohh, yeah

'Cause 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

'Cause 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

Oh, oh
Oh yeah

This song has a special meaning for me. This year I had the chance to go on The Eras Tour, but I was late and the show had already started.
I remember that when we finally managed to climb the stairs that led to the access gate, I saw her for the first time, singing to a crowd.

She looked like an angel. Her voice was soft. It was the voice I had heard all my life, through my headphones. At that moment, the only thing I could hear was her.
Taylor was real and she was beautiful. My eyes watered and I was frozen for a few minutes.

The song that was starting to play when I first met her was fearless.

Thank you so much, Taylor. We all love you.
