This Love
Taylor Swift (cover) Lyrics

Clear blue water
The bright, transparent water symbolizes a fresh, new beginning.

High tide, came and brought you in
The arrival of the high tide signifies the beginning of a major change in life that brought somebody special into the singer's life.

And I could go on and on, on and on
The singer could talk endlessly about the wonderful new love she has found.

And I will, scars grow darker, currents swept you out again
The memories of the lost love grow worse as the new love is swept away by unforeseen circumstances.

And you were just gone and gone, gone and gone
The loss of the new love is deeply felt, leaving the singer feeling sad and defeated.

In silent screams, and wildest dreams
Despite being silent, the screams of the singer's emotions for the lost love are loud and fierce, as they haunt her dreams.

I never dreamed of this
The singer never expected to feel this devastating heartbreak after finding love again.

This love is good
Despite the heartbreak, the singer finds that the love she found was worth experiencing.

This love is bad
The love that swept into the singer’s life and then disappeared just as quickly, was also painful and difficult to overcome.

This love is a life back from the dead, oh
Despite the difficulties, this love has given the singer a second chance at something that fills her with life.

These hands had to let it go free
Although the singer had to release her newfound love, she understands that it had to be free and learn to survive on its own, without force or shackles.

And this love came back to me, oh
Despite being let go, the love has returned to the singer, bringing hope and joy into her life once again.

Tossing, turning, struggle through the night for someone new
The search for a new love is causing the singer to suffer through sleepless nights and hardship.

Lanterns burning, flickered in the mind only you
Despite trying to forget past love, the singer is still haunted by the memory of the lost love.

But you were still gone, gone, gone,
Despite the constant reminders, the lost love is still out of reach and not present in her life.

Been losing grip, on sinking ships
The singer feels like she is barely holding on to her own life and happiness, as everything around her collapses.

You showed up, just in time
The new love reappeared just in time, saving the singer from falling any deeper into a depression.

This love left a permanent mark
The love, both good and bad, will leave a lasting impression on the singer's heart and mind.

This love is glowing in the dark, oh
The love shines bright even in the darkest of times, radiating through the singer's heart and soul.

Your kiss, my cheek
A symbol of affection, the kiss left a lasting sensation on the singer's cheek, symbolizing the love and care they shared.

I watched you leave
The singer had to accept the fact that the love had moved on and had to go.

Your smile, my ghost
The memory of the lost love's smile haunts the singer, reminding her of the happiness she lost.

I fell to my knees
The loss was so overwhelming the singer had to fall to her knees in pain and despair.

When you're young, just to run
When the young and ambitious want to escape their current life to find adventure and excitement.

But you come back to what you need
Even those young and adventurous often return to the things and people they need to lead a fulfilled life.
