Writing Songs About You

Taylor Swift · Other Songs - Taylor Swift

I can't believe you did it again, walk by and took my heart with you

Why'd you have to look so good, don't you know I'm trying to hate you

Try to have a dream without you anyway,

but how can I put out this fight

When you're the one who's leading?

I can't wait for the day I'll stop pretending

that I'm really okay when I'm not

I wanna know how it feels to be lover you for real, till I do

I keep writing songs about you



I got a sack of paper so high and it's all about you baby

Keep thinking maybe he I make sense of something crazy

Something I can get out of my head

I write your name, I write your name and I tear it out to shreds

I can't wait for the day I'll stop pretending

that I'm really okay when I'm not

I wanna know how it feels to be lover you for real, till I do

I keep writing songs about you



And if you ever change your mind you want me back again

I hope this song will remind me why I shouldn't let you in

I can't wait for the day I'll stop pretending

that I'm really okay cause I'm not

I wanna know how it feels to be lover you for real, till I do

I just wait for the day I'll stop pretending

that I'm really okay when I'm not

I wanna know how it feels to be lover you for real, till I do

I keep writing songs about you.
