SINGLES

All Of The Girls You Loved Before 2019

TS

FEARLESS

SPEAK NOW

When you think of all the late nights

Lame fights over the phone

Wake up in the mornin' with someone

But feelin' alone

A heart is drawn around your name

In someone's handwriting, not mine

We're sneakin' out into town

Holdin' hands, just killin' time

Your past and mine are parallel lines

Stars all aligned and they intertwined

And taught you

The way you call me "baby"

Treat me like a lady

All that I can say is

All of the girls you loved before (Ooh)

Made you the one I've fallen for

Every dead-end street led you straight to me

Now you're all I need, I'm so thankful for

All of the girls you loved before

But I love you more

When I think of all the makeup

Fake love out on the town (Ooh)

Cryin' in the bathroom for some dude

Whose name I cannot remember now

Secret jokes all alone

No one's home, sixteen and wild (Ooh)

We're breakin' up, makin' up

Leave without sayin' goodbye (Ooh)

And just know that

It's everything that made me

Now I call you "baby"

That's why you're so amazing

All of the girls you loved before (Ooh)

Made you the one I've fallen for

Every dead-end street led you straight to me

Now you're all I need, I'm so thankful for

All of the girls you loved before

But I love you more

Your mother brought you up loyal and kind

Teenage love taught you there's good in goodbye

Every woman that you knew brought you here

I wanna teach you how forever feels like

The girls you loved before (Ooh)

Made you the one I've fallen for

Every dead-end street (Dead-end street) led you straight to me (Straight to me)

Now you're all I need (All I need), I'm so thankful for

All of the girls you loved before

But I love you more

(I love you more)

Beautiful Ghosts 2019

Follow me home if you dare to

I wouldn't know where to lead you

Should I take chances when no one took chances on me?

So I watch from the dark, wait for my life to start

With no beauty in my memory

All that I wanted was to be wanted

Too young to wander London streets, alone and haunted

Born into nothing

At least you have something, something to cling to

Visions of dazzling rooms I'll never get let into

And the memories were lost long ago

But at least you have beautiful ghosts

Perilous night, their voices calling

A flicker of light before the dawning

Out here, the wild ones

Are taming the fear within me

Scared to call them my friends and be broken again

Is this hope just a mystical dream?

All that I wanted was to be wanted

Too young to wander London streets, alone and haunted

Born into nothing

At least you have something, something to cling to

Visions of dazzling rooms I'll never get let into

And the memories were lost long ago

But at least you have beautiful ghosts

And so maybe my home isn't what I had known

What I thought it would be

But I feel so alive with these phantoms of night

And I know that this life isn't safe but it's wild and it's free

All that I wanted was to be wanted

I'll never wander London streets alone and haunted

Born into nothing

With them I have something, something to cling to

I never knew I'd love this world they've let me into

And the memories were lost long ago

So I'll dance with these beautiful ghosts

And the memories were lost long ago

So I'll dance with these beautiful ghosts

Christmas Tree Farm 2019

My winter nights are taken up by static

Stress, and holiday shopping traffic

But I close my eyes, and I'm somewhere else

Just like magic

In my heart is a Christmas tree farm

Where the people would come

To dance under sparkling lights

Bundled up in their mittens and coats

And the cider would flow

And I just wanna be there tonight

Sweet dreams of holly and ribbon

Mistakes are forgiven

And everything is icy and blue

And you would be there too

Under the mistletoe

Watching the fire glow

And telling me, "I love you"

Just being in your arms

Takes me back to that little farm

Where every wish comes true

In my heart is a Christmas tree farm

There's a light in the barn

We'd run inside out from the cold

In the town, kids are dreaming of sleighs

And they're warm and they're safe

They wake to see a blanket of snow

Sweet dreams of holly and ribbon

Mistakes are forgiven

And everything is icy and blue

And you would be there too

Under the mistletoe

Watching the fire glow

And telling me, "I love you"

Just being in your arms

Takes me back to that little farm

Where every wish comes true

(Baby, yeah!)

And when I'm feeling alone

You remind me of home

Oh baby, baby, Merry Christmas

And when the world isn't fair

I'll pretend that we're there

Baby, baby, Merry Christmas

To you

Under the mistletoe (To you)

Watching the fire glow

And telling me, "I love you"

Baby, baby, Merry Christmas

Oh baby, baby, Merry Christmas

(Darling)

Baby, baby, Merry Christmas

I love you

Oh baby, baby, Merry Christmas

(I just want you to know)

Oh baby, baby, Merry Christmas

May your every wish come true

Only The Young 2020

It keeps me awake

The look on your face

The moment you heard the news

You're screaming inside

And frozen in time

You did all that you could do

The game was rigged, the ref got tricked

The wrong ones think they're right

You were outnumbered — this time

But only the young

Only the young

Only the young can run

Can run, so run

And run, and run

So every day now

You brace for the sound

You've only heard on TV

You go to class, scared

Wondering where the best hiding spot would be

And the big bad man and his big bad clan

Their hands are stained with red

Oh, how quickly, they forget

They aren't gonna help us

Too busy helping themselves

They aren't gonna change this

We gotta do it ourselves

They think that it's over

But it's just begun

Only one thing can save us

Only the young (Only the young)

Renegade 2021 (Big Red Machine feat. Taylor Swift)

I tapped on your window on your darkest night

The shape of you

Was jagged and weak

There was nowhere for me to stay

But I stayed anyway

And if I would've known

How many pieces you had crumbled into

I might have let them lay

Are you really gonna talk about timing in times like these?

And let all your damage, damage me

And carry your baggage up my street

And make me your future history

It's time, you've come a long way

Open the blinds, let me see your face

You wouldn't be the first renegade

To need somebody

Is it insensitive for me to say

Get your shit together

So I can love you?

Is it really your anxiety

That stops you from giving me everything

Or do you just not want to?

I tapped on your window on your darkest night

The shape of you

Was jagged and weak

There was nowhere for me to stay

But I stayed anyway

You fire off missiles cause you hate yourself

But do you know you're demolishing me?

And then you squeeze my hand as I'm about to leave

Are you really gonna talk about timing in times like these?

Let all your damage, damage me

And carry your baggage up my street

And make me your future history

It's time, you've come a long way

Open the blinds, let me see your face

You wouldn't be the first renegade

To need somebody

Is it insensitive for me to say

Get your shit together

So I can love you?

Is it really your anxiety

That stops you from giving me everything

Or do you just not want to?

And if I would've known

How sharp the pieces were

You'd crumbled into

I might've let them lay

Are you really gonna talk about timing in times like these?

And let all your damage, damage me

And carry your baggage up my street

And make me your future history

It's time, you've come a long way

Open the blinds, let me see your face

You wouldn't be the first renegade

To need somebody

I need somebody

To need somebody

(Are you really gonna talk about timing in times like these?)

Is it insensitive for me to say

(And let all your damage, damage me)

Get your shit together

(And carry your baggage up my street)

So I can love you?

(And make me your future history)

Is it really your anxiety

(It's time, you've come a long way)

That stops you from giving me everything

(Open the blinds, let me see your face

You wouldn't be the first renegade

To need somebody)

Or do you just not want to?

Carolina 2022

O Carolina creeks

Running through my veins

Lost I was born

Lonesome I came

Lonesome I'll always stay

Carolina knows

Why for years I roam

Free as these birds

Light as whispers

Carolina knows

And you didn't see me here

No, they never did see me here

And she's in my dreams

Into the mist, into the clouds

Don't leave

I make a fist, I make it count

And there are places I will never ever go

And things that only Carolina will ever know

Carolina stains

On the dress she left

Indelible scars

Pivotal marks

Blue as the life she fled

Carolina pines

Won't you cover me?

Hide me like robes

Down the back road

Muddy these webs we weave

And you didn't see me here

No, they never did see me

And she's in my dreams

Into the mist, into the clouds

Don't leave

I make a fist, I make it count

And there are places I will never ever go

And things that only Carolina will ever know

And you didn't see me here

They never did see me here

No, you didn't see me here

They never saw me

O Carolina knows

Why for years they've said

That I was guilty as sin

And sleep in a liar's bed

But the sleep comes fast

And I'll meet no ghosts

It's between me

The sand and the sea

Carolina knows

I Don't Wanna Live Forever 2016 (ZAYN & Taylor Swift)

Been sittin' eyes wide open behind these four walls, hopin' you'll call

It's just a cruel existence like it's no point hopin' at all

Baby, baby, I feel crazy

Up all night, all night and every day

Give me somethin', oh, but you say nothin'

What is happenin' to me?

I don't wanna live forever

'Cause I know I'll be livin' in vain

And I don't wanna fit wherever

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I'm sittin' eyes wide open and I got one thing stuck in my mind

Wondering if I dodged a bullet or just lost the love of my life

Baby, baby, I feel crazy

Up all night, all night and every day

I gave you something, but you gave me nothing

What is happening to me?

I don't wanna live forever

'Cause I know I'll be livin' in vain

And I don't wanna fit (fit, babe) wherever (wherever)

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I've been looking sad in all the nicest places

(Baby, baby, I feel crazy)

I see you around in all these empty faces

(Up all night, all night and every day)

I've been looking sad in all the nicest places

(Give me somethin', oh, but you say nothin')

Now I'm in a cab, I tell him where your place is

What is happenin' to me?

I don't wanna live forever

'Cause I know I'll be livin' in vain

And I don't wanna fit wherever

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

I just wanna keep callin' your name

Until you come back home

Sweeter Than Fiction 2013

Hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground, oh oh

Only sound, only sound that you hear is "No"

You never saw it comin'

Slipped when you started runnin'

And now you've come undone and I, I, I, I

Seen you fall, seen you crawl on your knees, eh eh

Seen you lost in a crowd, seen your colors fade

Wish I could make it better

Someday you won't remember

This pain you thought would last forever and ever

There you'll stand, ten feet tall

I will say, "I knew it all along."

Your eyes are wider than distance

This life is sweeter than fiction

Just a shot, just a shot in the dark, oh oh

All you got, all you got are your shattered hopes

They never saw it comin'

You hit the ground runnin'

And now you're onto something, I, I, I say

What a sight, what a sight when the light came on

Proved me right, proved me right when you proved them wrong

And in this perfect weather

It's like we don't remember

The rain we thought would last forever and ever

There you'll stand, ten feet tall

I will say, "I knew it all along."

Your eyes are wider than distance

This life is sweeter than fiction

There you'll stand, next to me

All at once, the rest is history

Your eyes are wider than distance

This life is sweeter than fiction (than fiction)

I'll be one of the many saying,

"Look at you now, look at you now, now."

I'll be one of the many saying,

"You made us proud, you made us proud, proud."

I'll be one of the many saying,

"Look at you now, look at you now, now."

I'll be one of the many saying,

"You made us proud, you made us proud, proud."

And when they call your name

and they put your picture in a frame

You know that I'll be there time and again

'Cause I loved you when, when you

Hit the ground, hit the ground, hit the ground, oh oh

Only sound, only sound that you heard was "No"

Now in this perfect weather

It's like we don't remember

The rain we thought would last forever and ever (forever)

There you'll stand, ten feet tall (ten feet tall)

I will say, "I knew it all along." (I knew it all along)

Your eyes are wider than distance (your eyes)

This life is sweeter than fiction

There you'll stand next to me (next to me)

All at once, the rest is history (ooooh)

Your eyes are wider than distance (your eyes)

This life is sweeter than fiction (than fiction)

It's sweeter than fiction

It's sweeter, yeah

It's sweeter than, sweeter

Sweeter than fiction

Eyes Open 2012

Everybody's waiting

Everybody's watching

Even when you're sleeping

Keep your ey-eyes open

The tricky thing

Is yesterday we were just children

Playing soldiers

Just pretending

Dreaming dreams with happy endings

In backyards, winning battles with our wooden swords

But now we've stepped into a cruel world

Where everybody stands and keeps score

Keep your eyes open

Everybody's waiting for you to break down

Everybody's watching to see the fallout

Even when you're sleeping, sleeping

Keep your ey-eyes open

So here you are, two steps ahead and staying on guard

Every lesson forms a new scar

They never thought you'd make it this far

But turn around (turn around), oh they've surrounded you

It's a showdown (showdown) and nobody comes to save you now

But you've got something they don't

Yeah you've got something they don't

You've just gotta keep your eyes open

Everybody's waiting for you to break down

Everybody's watching to see the fallout

Even when you're sleeping, sleeping

Keep your ey-eyes open

Keep your ey-eyes

Keep your feet ready

Heartbeat steady

Keep your eyes open

Keep your aim locked

The night goes dark

Keep your eyes open

Keep your ey-eyes open

Everybody's waiting for you to break down

Everybody's watching to see the fallout

Even when you're sleeping, sleeping

Keep your ey-eyes open

Safe & Sound 2011 (feat. Joy Williams & John Paul White)

I remember tears streaming down your face when I said, "I'll never let you go"

When all those shadows almost killed your light

I remember you said, "Don't leave me here alone"

But all that's dead and gone and passed tonight

Just close your eyes

The sun is going down

You'll be alright

No one can hurt you now

Come, morning light

You and I'll be safe and sound

Don't you dare look out your window, darlin', everything's on fire

The war outside our door keeps ragin' on

Hold on to this lullaby

Even when the music's gone, gone

Just close your eyes

The sun is going down

You'll be alright

No one can hurt you now

Come, morning light

You and I'll be safe and sound

Ooh, ooh

Oh (Oh)

Ooh, ooh

Oh

Just close your eyes

You'll be alright

Come, morning light

You and I'll be safe and sound

Ooh, ooh

Crazier 2009

I'd never gone with the wind

Just let it flow

Let it take me where it wants to go

'Til you open the door

There's so much more

I'd never seen it before

I was trying to fly but I couldn't find wings

But you came along and you changed everything

You lift my feet off the ground

You spin me around

You make me crazier, crazier

Feels like I'm falling and I am lost in your eyes

You make me crazier, crazier, crazier

I've watched from a distance

As you made life your own

Every sky was your own kind of blue

And I wanted to know

How that would feel

And you made it so real

You showed me something that I couldn't see

You opened my eyes and you made me believe

You lift my feet off the ground

You spin me around

You make me crazier, crazier

Feels like I'm falling and I am lost in your eyes

You make me crazier, crazier, crazier

Baby, you showed me what living is for

I don't wanna hide anymore

You lift my feet off the ground

You spin me around

You make me crazier, crazier

Feels like I'm fallin' and I am lost in your eyes

You make me crazier, crazier, crazier

Crazier, crazier.

Beautiful Eyes 2008

Your beautiful eyes

Stare right into my eyes

And sometimes I think of you late at night

I don't know why, I

I wanna be somewhere where you are

I wanna be where

You're here, your eyes are looking into mine

So baby, make me fly

My heart has never felt this way before

I'm looking through your

I'm looking through your eyes

I wake up, I'm alive

In only a little while I'll cry

'Cause you're my lullaby

So baby, come hold me tight 'cause I-I

I wanna be everything you need

I wanna be where

You're here, your eyes are looking into mine

So baby, make me fly

My heart has never felt this way before

I'm looking through your

I'm looking through your eyes

Just as long as you're mine

I'll be your everything tonight

Let me love you, kiss you

Oh, baby, let me miss you

Let me see your

Dream about, dream about

Dream about your eyes

Eyes, eyes

Beautiful eyes

I Heart? 2008

Wish I had concentrated

They said love was complicated

But it's something I just fell into

And it was overrated

But just look what I created

I keep my life in black and blue

Before you ask me if I'm alright

Think about what I had to do, ooh yeah

Wake up and smell the breakup

Fix my heart, put on my make-up

Another mess I didn't plan

And I'll bet you thought you beat me

Wish you could only see

I got an I heart question mark

Written on the back of my hand

I'll be fine if you just walk by

But you had to talk about why

You were wrong and I was right

But I can't believe you made me

Sit at home, cry like a baby

Wait right by the phone every night

And now you ask about you and I

There's no you and I

Remember what you put me through

I had to wake up and smell the breakup

Fix my heart, put on my make-up

Another mess I didn't plan

And I'll bet you thought you beat me

Wish you could only see

I got an I heart question mark

Written on the back of my hand

And when you're home all alone at night

You'll still wonder why

You took everything I had, oh baby

I haven't thought about you and I

There's no you and I

And I know someday you will

Wake up and smell the breakup

Realize that we won't make-up

It didn't go the way you planned

And you'll know you didn't beat me

When you look down and see

I got an I heart question mark written on the back of my hand

Written on the back of my hand

An I heart question mark, yeah

Written on the back of my hand

Christmases When You Were Mine 2007

Please take down the mistletoe

'Cause I don't wanna think about that right now

'Cause everything I want is miles away

In a snow covered little town

My momma's in the kitchen, worrying about me

Season's greetings, hope you're well

Well I'm doing alright

If you were wondering

Lately I can never tell

I know this shouldn't be a lonely time

But there were Christmases when you were mine

I've been doing fine without you, really

Up until the nights got cold

And everybody's here, except you, baby

Seems like everyone's got someone to hold

But for me it's just a lonely time

'Cause there were Christmases when you were mine

Merry Christmas, everybody

That'll have to be something I just say this year

I'll bet you got your mom another sweater

And were your cousins late again?

When you were putting up the lights this year

Did you notice one less pair of hands?

I know this shouldn't be a lonely time

But there were Christmases when I didn't wonder how you are tonight

'Cause there were Christmases when you were mine

You were mine

Christmas Must Be Something More 2007

What if ribbons and bows didn't mean a thing?

Would the song still survive without five golden rings?

Would you still wanna kiss without mistletoe?

What would happen if God never let it snow?

What would happen if Christmas carols told a lie?

Tell me, what would you find?

You'd see that today holds something special

Something holy, not superficial

So here's to the birthday boy who saved our lives

It's something we all try to ignore

And put a wreath up on your door

So here's something you should know that is for sure

Christmas must be something more

What if angels did not pay attention to

All the things that we wished they would always do?

What if happiness came in a cardboard box?

Then I think there is something we all forgot

What would happen if presents all went away?

Tell me, what would you find?

You'd see that today holds something special

Something holy, not superficial

So here's to the birthday boy who saved our lives

It's something we all try to ignore

And put a wreath up on your door

So here's something you should know that is for sure

Christmas must be something more

We get so caught up in all of it

Business and relationships

Hundred-mile-an-hour lives

And it's this time of year

And everybody's here

It seems the last thing on your mind

Is that the day holds something special

Something holy, not superficial?

So here's to Jesus Christ who saved our lives

It's something we all try to ignore

And put a wreath up on your door

But here's something you should know that is for sure

Christmas must be something

Christmas must be something more

There's gotta be more
