willow
Taylor Swift Lyrics

I'm like the water when your ship rolled in that night
I am fluid just like the water, when you first came to my life

Rough on the surface but you cut through like a knife
Although my exterior can seem cold and tough, you effortlessly gained access to my heart

And if it was an open-shut case, I never would've known from that look on your face
Even if it was clear-cut that we were meant to be, your expression showed nothing, and left me guessing

Lost in your current like a priceless wine
I am swept away by your overwhelming presence, like a precious wine that takes over the senses

The more that you say, The less I know
Despite all your words, each revelation makes me less sure of what's true

Wherever you stray, I follow
Wherever you go, I am there, tagging along without question

I'm begging for you to take my hand, Wreck my plans, That's my man
I am yearning for you to take charge and disrupt my life because that's just how much I am devoted to you

Life was a willow and it bent right to your wind
My life was flexible and morphed to whatever you wanted it to be

Head on the pillow, I could feel you sneaking in
Whenever I am about to fall asleep, I always feel you crawling into my thoughts

As if you were a mythical thing
You are like a legendary creature, too good to be true

Like you were a trophy or a champion ring
You are like an award or a prize that one dreams of having

And there was one prize I'd cheat to win
I'd do anything to get you, at any cost, because you are the ultimate reward

You know that my train could take you home, Anywhere else is hollow
I am your only way back to happiness and everything else without me feels empty and meaningless

They count me out time and time again, But I come back stronger than a 90's trend
Others have given up on me multiple times, but like the fashion trends of the 90s, I will always make a comeback

Wait for the signal and I'll meet you after dark
I'll wait for you in the dark, just give me a sign

Show me the places where the others gave you scars
Tell me your past traumas and pain so that I can understand you better

Now this is an open-shut case, Guess I should've known from the look on your face
Now that everything is clear and leave no room for confusion, I should have known right from the start, judging from the expression on your face

Every bait and switch was a work of art
Every tactic you used to lure me in and then discarded me was done with finesse and mastery

Hey, that's my man
I am proud to claim you as my own, even with all your faults
