Taylor Swift is coming back to the Philippines! And here I am again feeling all frustrated because I can’t still make it to her concert on Friday. If only I am residing in Manila and have lots of money… Urgh! :(

Anyhow, since I love Taylor and I love how she expresses her self through music, I am going to share to you my favorite lyrics from the songs included in her latest album “Red” as follows:

Come Back… Be Here

“The delicate beginning rush,

The feeling you can know so much,

Without knowing anything at all.

And now that I can put this down,

If I had known what I’d known now,

I never would have played so nonchalance.”

All Too Well

“And I know it’s long gone

And that magic’s not here no more

And I might be okay

But I’m not fine at all.”

“Time won’t fly, it’s like I’m paralyzed by it

I’d like to be my old self again, but I’m still trying to find it”

Treacherous

“I can’t decide if it’s a choice

Getting swept away

I hear the sound of my own voice

Asking you to stay.”

The Last Time

“This is the last time I’m asking you this,

Put my name on the top of your list,

This is the last time I’m asking you why,

You break my heart in the blink of an eye.”

I Almost Do

“Oh we made quite a mess babe

It’s probably better off this way

And I confess babe

In my dreams you’re touching my face

And asking me if I want to try again with you

And I almost do”

“And I just want to tell you

It takes everything in me not to call you

And I wish I could run to you

And I hope you know that every time I don’t

I almost do.”

RED

“Touching him is like realizing all you ever wanted was right there in front of you”

“Memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words to your old favorite song”

“Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there’s no right answer”

“Regretting him was like wishing you never found out love could be that strong”

State of Grace

“So you were never a saint

And I love the shades are wrong

We learn to live with the pain

Mostly of broken hearts.”

“Love is a ruthless game

Unless you play it good and right.”

Everyting Has Changed

“And all I feel in my stomach is butterflies the beautiful kind

Making up for lost time, taking flight, making me feel right.”

“Come back and tell me why

I’m feeling like I’ve missed you all this time

And meet me there tonight

And let me know that it’s not all in my mind.”

Like what Frank Ocean says, “When you’re happy, you enjoy the music. But when you’re sad, you understand the lyrics”. 

Every lyrics describes what I am feeling in the past two months until now. Healing process takes time. But I’m proud to say that I’m going through at least half of it at present. My heart is feeling BLUE but I believe there’s someone new that’s willing to paint it RED all over again! :)
