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

Line by Line Meaning

There's somethin' bout the way
There's a unique feeling I get when I see the street after a rainfall


The street looks when it's just rained
The street has a certain shimmer to it when it is wet after rainfall


There's a glow off the pavement
The wet surface of the pavement shines and radiates a lustrous light


You walk me to the car
You escort me to the car


And you know I wanna ask you to dance right there
And you are aware that I want to ask you to dance there and then


In the middle of the parking lot
In the center of the car park


We're drivin' down the road
We're on the move in a car along the road


I wonder if you know
I question whether you are aware


I'm tryin' so hard not to get caught up now
I'm struggling to not become too involved in this moment


But you're just so cool
But you radiate an infectious level of self-confidence


Run your hands through your hair
You absentmindedly caress your hair with your hand


Absent mindedly makin' me want you
Subconsciously, you're making me desire you


And I don't know how it gets better than this
I'm unsure how it could improve from this moment


You take my hand and drag me head first
You grab my hand and urge me forward impulsively


Fearless
Without fear of failure or negative repercussions


And I don't know why
I can't comprehend why


But with you I'd dance in a storm
But if I'm with you, I would dance carefreely in the face of danger


In my best dress
Dressed in my finest attire


So baby drive slow
Drive slowly, baby


'Til we run out of road in this one horse town
Until we exhaust all the roads in this uneventful town


I wanna stay right here in this passenger seat
I would like to remain in this passenger seat


You put your eyes on me
You direct your gaze towards me


In this moment now capture it, remember it
Seize this exact moment, memorize it and keep it with you


Well you stood there with me in the doorway
You stood with me by the doorway


My hands shake
My hands are quivering


I'm not usually this way but
It's not normal for me to behave in this manner but


You pull me in and I'm a little more brave
You pull me closer to you and I become slightly braver


It's the first kiss, it's flawless, really something, it's fearless
It is the first kiss, it's perfect, really remarkable - it's fearless


Oh, yeah
Oh yeah


And I don't know why
I can't understand why


But with you I'd dance in a storm
But if I'm with you, I would dance carefreely in the face of danger


In my best dress
Dressed in my finest attire


Oh, oh, oh-oh yeah
Oh, 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.
