Taylor Swift: Lover


We could leave the Christmas lights up 'til January
This is our place, we make the rules
And there's a dazzling haze, a mysterious way about you, dear
Have I known you 20 seconds or 20 years?


Can I go where you go?
Can we always be this close forever and ever?
And ah, take me out, and take me home
You're my, my, my, my lover


We could let our friends crash in the living room
This is our place, we make the call
And I'm highly suspicious that everyone who sees you wants you
I've loved you three summers now, honey, but I want 'em all


Can I go where you go?
Can we always be this close forever and ever?
And ah, take me out, and take me home (Forever and ever)
You're my, my, my, my lover


Ladies and gentlemen, will you please stand?
With every guitar string scar on my hand
I take this magnetic force of a man to be my lover
My heart's been borrowed and yours has been blue
All's well that ends well to end up with you
Swear to be overdramatic and true to my lover
And you'll save all your dirtiest jokes for me
And at every table, I'll save you a seat, lover

Can I go where you go?  
Can we always be this close forever and ever?  
And ah, take me out, and take me home (Forever and ever)  
You're my, my, my, my  
Oh, you're my, my, my, my 
Oh, you're my, my, my, my 
Darling, you're my, my, my, my lover 

Interpretation of Lover

The song „Lover“ is about a female first person narrator who has fallen in love: She wants to go where her boyfriend goes and she does not want to be separated from him. Time is not important for her anymore.

The woman even seems to be indifferent to her friends as she says that she wants to „let [their] friends crash“ in her house. This strange phrase underlines how strong the affection of the woman against her lover is.

Nevertheless, it is very likely that is not easy for both of them: „My heart's been borrowed and yours has been blue“. The narrator wants to make clear like this that she also was interested in other men. And her friend had a problem we do not know the details about. At the same time, the narrator does not conceal her jealousy because she suspects that other women could be interested in her boyfriend.
