Lyrics:
You should've been there
Should've burst through the door
With that ‘baby, I'm right here’ smile
And it would've felt like
A million little shining stars had just aligned
And I would've been so happy
Christmas lights glisten
I've got my eye on the door
Just waiting for you to walk in
But the time is ticking
People ask me how I've been
As I comb back through my memory
How you said you'd be here
You said you'd be here
And it was like slow motion
Standing there in my party dress
In red lipstick
With no one to impress
And they're all laughing
As I'm looking around the room
But there was one thing missing
And that was the moment I knew
And the hours pass by
Now I just wanna be alone
But your close friends always seem to know
When there's something really wrong
So they follow me down the hall
And there in the bathroom
I try not to fall apart
And the sinking feeling starts
As I say hopelessly
“He said he'd be here…”
And it was like slow motion
Standing there in my party dress
In red lipstick
With no one to impress
And they're all laughing
And asking me about you
But there was one thing missing
And that was the moment I knew
What do you say when tears are streaming down your face
in front of everyone you know?
And what do you do when the one who means the most to you
is the one who didn't show…?
You should've been here
And I would've been so happy
And it was like slow motion
Standing there in my party dress
In red lipstick
With no one to impress
And they're all standing around me, singing
Happy birthday to you
But there was one thing missing
And that was the moment I knew
Oh, I knew
You called me later
And said, “I'm sorry I didn't make it”
And I said, “I'm sorry, too”
And that was the moment I knew

Music video by Taylor Swift performing The Moment I Knew (Taylor's Version) (Lyric Video). © 2021 Taylor Swift
Definitely one of the most heartbreaking songs she has ever written
Exactly
this along with champagne problems
@@444m1ahh Hoax too
@@shivanih8918 I love those two songs so much, also one of the other saddest songs she's written is my tears ricochet
And Last Kiss
2:55 THE BRIDGE GETS ME EVERY TIME
“what do you do when the one who means the most to you is the one who didn’t show”😭😭
Goosebumps every time
Heartbreaking
True
Happens to me but just in school.
Also the line “with no one to impress” hit different
This song would be so aesthetically cinematic for a music video
Manifesting a music video!!!!
RIGHT‼️
It was already shown in the “All Too Well Short film” The birthday scene. This is just an elaboration of that specific scene.
manifesting!!!
Since the first time I heard this song, I could always see how the music video would like. Like in the 10 minute version of All too well when she says she’s crying in a bathroom, that’s how I pictured it
Being treated as an Option instead of a Priority is one of the worst realizations one can go through. Having to have this reveal itself on a birthday, let alone a milestone birthday, has got to be so incredibly gut wrenching.
@espie OFFICIAL UA-cam Channel in the name of being honest
And her 21st birthday that guy deserves the worst
1k th likeee, I have been there, i cried so hard😭
Same thing happened to me on my 21st birthday actually
realizing people you knew over a decade and considered "friends" never really learned your birthday, man
Unpopular Opinion: This song has same level of pain just like All too well because we all know it tackled the same man who hurt her that turned out to be one of the inspiration of her RED album 😭
Yep… came here right after the 10 minute version.
YES! Everyone is like “it’s just a birthday party it’s not that deep” but this was the last straw. Like everything else was going down and this was the final time it really sunk in that it was over and this is what CAUSED the feelings and everything in all too well. This was a birthday party but it really represents the MOMENT she realized everything
Trueeee. After all too well 10 min, i came here after
Ikr??? 😭
Exactly
The lyrics of “The Moment I Knew” and the 10 minute version of “All Too Well” is super connected. I just really have goosebumps now from realizing it. Taylor Swift is really a genius. Glad I stanned the right person ❤️
Yep! They talk about the same birthday
And then listening to 22 afterwards 😭
even in the film where FL is in a party wearing black dress & red lipstick and kinda looking around but didn't see ML
Omg- you're right-time to cry- T_T
They said it’s suppose to be fun turning 21
Funny how so many people just ignore the fact that All Too Well (the 10 min version), 22 and The Moment I Knew together narrate an incident so precisely. In ATW, she says that her Lover never showed up to her 21st birthday, and could be a sequel to this song. Taylor probably was feeling under the weather during the party, because we have the line "You who charmed my dad with self effacing jokes, sipping coffee like you're on a late night show, then he watched me watch the front door all night willing you to come, and he said it's supposed to be fun, turning 21." In TMIK, Taylor sings about how everyone turned up at her party, but her lover, and basically how she felt that day. She even explained this song in interview about how her lover didn't turn show up at her party and that they broke up after that night. This is where she inserts Begin Again, which is all about healing from a heartbreak and finding love. She describes how happy the new person made her feel, unlike the previous one. 22 comes into the story, how she felt the need to make it up for her previous birthday. It is about her not depending on anyone else for her satisfaction and is about getting ready for the next chapter of her life. HER MIND.
Thank you! Love detective swfties love u :3
Then 'I Bet You Think About Me' would be the final chapter as taylor already forget him and move on with her life became much happier and she knew that her ex still think about her and regretting
QUEEN for a reason yk
@@cefrinaldi8060umm she never moved on😂 she really loved jake.
"...but then he watched me watch the front door all night, willing you come..And he said "it's supposed to be fun turning 21"..." -All Too Well (10 minute version)
stoppp im still recovering emotionally from that
Was literally searching for this comment
That line had me tearing up so much, and now this song hurts even more than it did before.
EXACTLY! THATS WHAT I NOTICED TOO!
stawwwwppppp i cried
Years later, and this song still hits like a brick to the face, THIS SONG IS SO UNDERRATED
I can feel you.
SOOOOOO UNDERRATED
Yes!!! I did not expect all the feelings that came rushing back after all this time 😭😭
"Like a brick to the face" yes that's the feel.
EXACLTY!!!!
I’m 25, married and happy and Taylor is the only one who can take me back to when I was 13 and dreaming to have a boyfriend, make me realize how naive I was at 15, make me cry some more and almost give up on love at 20 and now at 25 imagining a character in my head that keeps breaking my heart while my loving husband is next to me cracking up about how dramatic I am because Taylor’s songs digs through my heart and soul like no other
Same here!
Glad u found love tho
I hope you're not unemployed
@@ddshhrss lol definitely not
girl same Lol (:
What hurts the most is that This horrible experience could have been avoided if he didn’t lack communication skills. A simple phone call or text would have alleviated some of the disappointment but nooo he didn’t even attempt to give her a heads up which highlights how little he was thinking of her happiness… this hurts
I know after the film why it hurt more cause they were already breaking down and she thought atleast he'll show up here on her birthday but he just called later to say oh sorry lol
And I think that's the moment she knew.
And the fact that they have years of age differences.. He really could've been a better man.
I love the song references in these replies
Precisely.
@That Nerdy girl Tarini chemistry and compatibility are the exact same thing
This song is extremely underrated and I’d like to make petition to have a music video for this song.
Where do I sign?
I have the full script in my mind ahahah
I’ve been saying this for years!!
consider this my signature
I mean I'd love to see it but when Red first came out, she said this was a really hard song for her and her friends and family because they were all there that day... I'd love to have a music video but I wouldn't want her to spend any more time on this one in particular
this song just feels like “ you’re gonna cry while youre dancing”
"But your close friends always seem to know when there's something really wrong, so they follow me down the hall". Those lyrics are so underrated, and they always get me, like even HIS FRIENDS showed up for her birthday, yet he didn't. So sad. 😢
I think she meant her close friends
@@friendlyneigborhoodbean she deffo says ‘But your close friends’ which is why it’s so devastating 😢
She is actually specifically talking about Anne Hathaway who had done a film with him. She followed Taylor to the bathroom because she could tell she was upset. She comforted Taylor. Even though she was there as his friend
i think thats not during her birthday. thats the party shes singing about in atwtmv@@Alslilgirl
And it’s connected to the crying in the bathroom “some actress asking me what happened… you… that’s what happened. You.” From all too well. This song is so connected it’s amazing
What makes Taylor's songs so relatable is her amazing storytelling ability. Each song is a story that people are drawn to.
Exactly.
“And they’re all laughing as I’m looking around the room. But there was one thing missing, and that’s the moment I knew” hits me hard. It’s exactly how I felt when my parents didn’t show up to my high school graduation back in 2018. I kept looking around the room watching people laugh, take pictures with families, hoping mine would show up. But they never did. This line has just always hit me the hardest since then because it’s just exactly what I felt. They should’ve been there. I haven’t seen my parents in 4 years.
I am so sorry love sending hugs❤❤❤
Sending lots of love to you
I think about my dad too when I listened to this song. Everytime. It broke my heart.
That's tough...hugs for you.
this is so sad im so sorry if we were friends in high school i woulda walked up and took some selfies with you and my parents probably would have joined in thier just like that lol
sending love
Okay, but when I heard that line “”…it’s supposed to be fun… Turning 21”” in the All Too Well 10 min. version MY HEART SHATTERED and it brought me here.
Yes!!!! Same!!! Can't wait to watch the shirt film. What a roller coaster ride. I get it now!!!
That was the line that made me understand The Moment I Knew fully!
SAME SAME SAMEEE
SAAAAAME it hit like a punch in my stomach
I was also reminded by this song after hearing it. Ahahha
I loved the way she sings the chorus in this version with the words "motion", "lipstick", "laughing" for so long. It feels like it's in slow motion
This is my first time hearing The Moment I Knew. I never expected that this was such a heartbreaking song! Such a masterpiece.
😁
I felt in love with it by first hear❤
@@LeahisgoofySame
Taylor going 'I'm sorry too and that was the moment I knew' breaks me every time because it's her realizing that this relationship is toxic as she's apologizing for something that's not even her fault.
It breaks me because it’s her being sorry that reality and fate couldn’t be different. That this one thing couldn’t happen. That she would have to run away from him because he couldn’t be a “better man”
No I cried because it feels like she's sorry because she known better what is supposed to happen that time but she still trust him that he will come. And she's sorry that she's in pain because she already knew that he is not a better man. As what she said in All Too Well, she remember everything all too well.
She feels guilty for letting her fall in such a toxic relationship. That’s why she wrote I knew you were trouble
I agree with all of you😭😭😭😭😭
@@basketball726 SAME ALL OF THESS MAKES SENSE
This feels like a prom where a girl is just standing there in the corner while everyone is having fun with their friends and lovers
actually it's about taylor's 21 year-old birthday party that jake gynnehal didn't attend even though he said he'd be there and she locked herself in the bathroom to cry when she realised he wasn't coming (read on twitter)
@@pedromendesrbd were they still dating then or was it after they've broken up?
@@menzo1369 Pretty sure they were still dating.
bestie you didnt have to hurt me like that :((((
@@faycoleman9023 actually I think they were broken up based on the timeline in the All Too Well short film. He probably promised to come before they broke up.
Has this woman ever written a bad song? She is amazing.
The answer to your question is no
Shake it off exists. And I personally don’t like LWYMMD
Stay stay stay
@@hugod9131 What 💀 there’s nothing bad about that song lyrically. I guess you could say the production kind of sounds like a kids song, but the lyrics are okay.
@@hugod9131 I'm offended by this
All too well: "He watched me watch the front door all night willing you to come, and he said it's supposed to be fun turning 21."
The moment I knew: "They're all standing around me signing happy birthday to you, but there was one thing missing."
In both songs she's talking about her ex who couldn't show up on her birthday
@@alejandrafuentes1316 *Wouldn't
this song with taylor's matured vocals is ten times more beautiful and heartbreaking
LITERALLY
Cheese matures, you didn't need the d at the end.
@@DaviniaHill grammatically, "matured" is fine due to the comment implying a comparison to the original version. That being said, her voice has matured greatly since 2011.
Knowing that this was about her birthday and Jake didn't show up just makes it more painful especially this line: *"what do you do when the one who means the most to you is the one who didn't show?"* 🥲😭
dang didnt know that. my grade for being a swiftie is 80% only. lol But I felt the pain when I first heard this song
Or in "All Too Well" when the lyrics are "Its supposed to be fun turning twenty-one"
I used to have a friend this happened to. It hurt to see.
She is an icon, she is a legend and she is the moment.
I lovit
she is the music industry
She is *the one* the world has been waiting for (it’s been waiting for you) for billions of years - it finally came on a Wednesday, 13th of December, 1989, in Reading, Pennsylvania
This song isn't just about your significant other who didn't show up on your special day. It's about someone special who promised but wasn't there for you in your hard times.
The way this was not just about his mere absence in her birthday party--this was her last straw. Everything was falling apart. She was willing him to come like, "Tell me you're coming, that this isn't the end." But he didn't come, and in that moment she knew.
We've all had that moment of realising "oh, it's over over". This song hits me like a million darts to the heart, and I love it.
this song deserves recognition just like its sister song, ALL TOO WELL😭
Omg I just said this before I read your comment. Its totally All Too Well's sister song
The way Jake Gyllehaal behaved with his lover in Love & other drugs and now this..😫
Not you bringing in Anne Hathaway 😂😂
This song broke my heart. I miss my dad so much. This song painted the perfect picture of everything I felt. Like waiting for him to walk through the door, drive my family and I around during Christmas to look at houses decorated with Christmas lights, wishing he was there for my graduations and final prom where I finally looked like the princess he'd always call me, and through the biggest hardship I'd ever faced. I miss him so much
I love how people can have different interpretations of this song
“what do you say when tears are streaming down your face, in front of everyone you know? and what do you do when the one who means the most to you is the one who didn’t show?” the music industry, everyone 😭🥂
The fact that she added "But when he watched me watch the front door all night willing you to come", just makes this song feel so much like story-telling, because it's a direct continuation from that night.
"I've got my eye on the door just waiting for you to walk in but the time is ticking. People ask me how I've been
As I comb back through my memory,
how you said you'd be here" this part really hits me because it reminds me of my 16th birthday when not one person out of the 30 I invited came to my birthday and I was left alone with a birthday cake and a venue my parents helped me rent. Anyway they took me back home and I had my cake with my parents while I saw on snapchat stories that my 'friends' met up on my birthday without telling me to party somewhere else. Later they all messaged me they are sorry that something came up last minute and I erased them from my life after that and completely shut them all out. And that was the moment I knew.
This reminds me of my high school “friends” because they would always plan birthday parties for me but never followed through. Or something similar to you as well where I planned a friend outing to a nearby restaurant to celebrate my birthday after school since we had the week off (my birthday is on thanksgiving week) and somehow no one showed up because during the break they all “forgot” to ask permission. Took me years to realize how wrong I was with thinking they were real friends
I am so sorry you experienced that. You deserved better.
I don’t understand how people can be so cruel and selfish. It’s crazy. Imagine prioritising your image in the group over your friend who’s booked a venue and a whole party. It’s awful. I’m so sorry that anything like that ever happened to you or to anyone. It’s the kind of thing that makes me sickeningly angry at/ disappointed in people
I am so sorry. this feeling of something missing , maybe a friend, or even parents, tear our heart apart . But with the same time where we count anxietly the minutes waiting for them to come around, we can heal our hearts and sew it, with pacience
I pray you found yourself some real friends!! You deserve much better than them! ❤️🙏🏻
she even invited his close friends for her birthday party but he didnt come so heartbreaking
the way she refrenced this in all too well omg
This should win the grammy... Beats every single records out there
Exactly
We'll have to wait to see how Adele's music turns out
@@isabellescales3763 well this should definitely win a grammy
@@isabellescales3763 Adele's music is repetitive. Adele needs to bring something new. Same breakup songs, same theme.
@@gia42472 How many men write breakup and love songs and people still stick around and worship them
Turned 21 today sat here blasting this crying my eyes out cause everyone has cancelled and only 4 people actually remembered my birthday, taylor really is the soundtrack to my life...
Happy birthday🎉(i know that feeling, i m sorry)
I hope one day you will realize that your special day can be special just by you, yourself. It doesnt matter if people doesnt remember your birthday at least you got yourself. And it matters to not lose yourself just for certain people that forgot your existence. Anyway happy belated birthday :') 💜
Sending you late birthday wishesss ❤️❤️❤️
if you’re willing to share your birthday with me, i’ll wish you a happy birthday every year. you deserve it! you are loved, and i know that i’m late but sometimes you need to hear it.
During my worst days, he was never there. This song helps me express my sorrow and wash away my sadness. I felt it very deeply. In the end, you only have yourself, always.
This song is one of her most gutwrenching songs and it's painfully stunning and for that it will always be a favorite
I’ve been relating to this song recently so I’m glad I can listen to it on repeat and give the money to the artist who created it.
“what do you say when tears are streaming down your face in front of everyone you know?” is somehow one of her saddest lyrics of all time but everyone can relate to that in a way. that’s why this song is an underrated masterpiece.
“Standing there in my party dress, in red lipstick ,with no one to impress” I am crying because I have been there
"He said he'd be here" pls nooo the pain and dying hope expressed through this lyric 😭😭
this is criminally underrated. definitely needs more recognition.
I will say I really liked the beat on this song, I can't pinpoint what instrument comes in it is very deep and has base. I was picturing a cello but I honestly don't know what a cello sounds like maybe it's deepest cord. But the song has this weight and when that base comes in so heavy also it is almost enough to overwhelm you. I mean if the lyrics still sting I have been year and years since feeling like I wouldn't get over my ex for years.
UP!!!
I wasn't even aware of this song because I did not buy the Deluxe when Red came out 10 years ago. I can absolutely identify with this song because this actually happened to me. How does Taylor write such heartfelt lyrics that you can identify with. The Moment I Knew is one of my favorites on Red.
*In that one birthday scene of the All too well short film “and it’s suppose to be fun turning 21”* 🎂💔
*i love that she referenced this song (not explicitly) iykyk*
"and what do you do when the one who means the most to you is the one who didn't show"..... This line I swear 🥺❤️
Let's talk abt Taylor's matured vocals😭❤❤
Despite the context of this song, how sad and scary is that most relationships have a specific point where everything just stops and ends, and even worse, you’re aware of it.
If a stageplay was encapsulated in one 4 minute song...a songwriting masterclass
Those dislikes are just proof that Even haters can't wait for This COMEBACK.
Ok Stan
we get it dude just enjoy the music
also saw the same comment from TWICE-scientist m/v😂
First time hearing this song and All To Well. Didn't know the back story because I don't care about celebrity gossip. That aside, the lyrics to both are very sad, honest, & relatable. They didn't make me so much think about her & Jake, but about my own similar situations I've been through in life & how deep that pain can be, but also how that pain can manifest into powerful ways of expression. She really is a great artist.
Que afortunado eres, de que esta sea la primer versión que escuches 🥺
100% agree
That's what she wants as an artist. She doesn't want other people targeting who they think the song is about, she just hopes other people can enjoy what she's trying to convey and can apply it to their own situations.
Same here and it's my First time hearing this song and All Too Well
Yes, she is! Taylor is the music industry! She pours all the emotion into her songs! It's her outlet and everyone relate to every lyrics of it.
I'm a more than a decade fan now!
She's a great story letter. A modern Shakespeare!
Her songs are my comfort pill.
i was a TMIK stan ever since like forever and it still amazes me even now how she incorporated the phrase 'happy birthday to you' in a devastating context with this gut wrenching feeling. i really loved that she placed this big reveal at the last chorus like it just stabs you right into your heart for a thousand times and you can feel nothing but sorry for her even though this happenstance was years ago.
okay but the fact she was born december 13th, christmas season, and there are christmas lights actually glistening in the video makes me understand the situation better I don’t know why it feels so special
Based on the 10 minute version of All Too Well, this was also the moment Taylor's dad knew Jake was a d*uche
This was once underrated but now with Taylor's matured voice, it brings a whole different level of pain and meaning
The amount of heartbreak that this song gives me is beyond reason, but we have our own moment we knew.
The entire song made more sense because of “All too well” music video. Am I the only one crying in this part?😭
"What do you say when tears r streaming down your face in front of everyone you know." that hits. :'(👌🏻
I literally read this at the exact point she started singing it 😅
It's really difficult to keep a listener's attention for even the length of a full song and here goes Taylor making millions of people show up for her with every release. Even re-releases!! A real boss move.
Technically it is but it isn't, she is now singing these albums to own the rights to her music, and also she is now singing them with a more mature voice plus the songs from the vault that didn't get to be on her original. So they are not quite an original re-release, they need to find a different word for it.
Why have you copy pasted this on all her songs
The mark of a great songwriter. She can sing about things I've never experienced and make me feel like I have.
The artist
Every song that Taylor wrote feels so magical and felt like we are on the movie she wrote. You really will feel the emotions that she's giving. Plus the fact that Taylor's voice matured😣
It sounds like an epic movie soundtrack but add your heart shattering into a billion pieces
.
That last chorus just had me feeling so many indescribable feelings. It's such a powerful and beautiful song.
It’s incredible how Taylor Swift makes almost songs like stories
This songs captivates heartbreak in the purest form.
It's raw.
It's shattering.
It's beautiful.
It's perfect.
It's Taylor Swift ❤
i cried so hard to this in 2018 when i lived through it. time to channel those memories again.
Same
The emotion of this song is heart-wrenching but at the same time I am overwhelmed with the happiness of knowing Liz Huett returned to do the backing vocals for this one.
This clicks a lot better in my head weirdly now that I'm older and listen to her music more. My husband shares a birthday with Taylor Swift and this just... hits different. I'm glad I could be the woman who held birthday parties for him and creating our own lil traditions. I'm glad I can be the someone who he can cuddle with on his birthday, on our couch, next to the Christmas tree and just... breathe steady. The someone who showed up, no matter what. December 13th
I love how you unknowingly referenced one of her new songs
this song was always so underrated & with Taylor's version, I hope it'll get the hype it deserves!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This song is criminally underrated.
This gives me major "You're Not Sorry" vibes...the instrumental is quite reminiscent of YNS. I love it 💜
“And what do you do when the one who means the most to you is the one who didn’t show?”
I literally ugly cried to this on the night of my 18th birthday, realizing it’s over over.
That was almost 7 years ago and hearing this now is incredibly nostalgic. My Swiftie heart has awoken ♥️
The Christmas lights in here hits different when you know the story behind the song 🤧😭 BLONDIE IS SUCH A GENIUS.
Cause her birthday is in December? Lol
@@KpopLover1013 cause her 21 birthday was supposed to be Christmas themed.
@@claravasconcelos9069 imo her birthday will always be Christmas themed 😂😂

IM SHAKING. CRYING AND THROWING UP. MISS TAYLOR SWIFT FINALLY OWNS RED.
I can't believe I've never heard this song. Literally BALLING RN 😭
This makes me appreciate that she has Joe Alwyn so much. She went from her bf not showing up to her birthday party to now having an incredible life partner that celebrates her birthdays with her
this aged like milk
This song is the most tearjerking for me out of all songs in the album I just visualize how the scenario happens
HOW COULD SOMEONE DISLIKE SUCH A PERFECTION
probably Scooter’s hired trolls🤪
@Stay Sane yeah it was 22 too when I commented🤣
She didn't want me there because she wanted to write a song about me not showing up. She got what she wanted. I'm the one that was crushed in those moments.
I appreciate that All Too Well The Short Film has “They’re all standing around me singing Happy Birthday To You” scene, that’s my favorite part of this song😭
Just when I thought I couldn't love this song any more. And her background vocal at 2:20 is such a beautiful addition!
Solo quiero agradecer a mi ex por haberme abandonado en mi cumpleaños, ahora puedo disfrutar de esta joya, DIOS TE BENDIGA TAYLOR POR ESCRIBIR ESTA OBRA MAESTRA

Que llegue un alwyn a tu vida ❤
Haha typical swifties
No me abandonó, pero lo arruinó. 😂😂😂 SWIFTIES THINGS
@@pamelaalejandraigornavarro8888 SAME HERMANA
What I really, really love about this song, but particularly this version, is how inevitable the heartbreak feels. Every element of the song feels bent toward that end and it displays a mastery of the craft that I feel is beyond words.
Reminds me of my 18th birthday where my boyfriend (at that time) did not appear, rather, sends me a text message breaking up with me.
The pain you can feel through the lyrics, this song just... It breaks you into pieces but then you feel whole but inside you're shredded 😭😭😭😭😭😭
This gives us the in depth version of the hurt she felt at her 21st birthday😔
so underrated that it isn't even mentioned in the underrated ones
This is absolutely one of my favorite TS songs and I’m manifesting it for an ERAs surprise song.
IT WAS PLAYED LAST NIGHT😭
Bestie I'm afraid to tell you this....
@@Reputationtourstanyep, I missed it. 🥲 But I got Evermore!
My heart still hearts just like the moment I first heard these heartbreaking lyrics back in 2012 😭💔. The Moment I Knew is so slept on. it's just as brilliant as All Too Well!
Being a new edition to the fandom i feel so special coz like i am lucky enough to experience all the excitement for the album release and all. I get a chance again. Btw this is my first time listening to RED and I WAITED FOR THE TAYLOR'S VERSION.
Welcome to the fandom
Sameee
SAME HERE
Samee
welcome to the family 😩❤
this song deserved a music video
Taylor is a great storyteller. I feel like I could've been there at the party after listening to this song. She really paints such a vivid picture in your mind with her music.
This gotta be one of the most heartbreaking songs of all time but it's a song you enjoy even though it hurts.
The ending brings me chills “I am sorry I didn’t make it, I said I am sorry too. And that was the moment I knew”
why does she say, "I am sorry too?"
@@emogoesboom She's sorry he didn't make it. Him not going was the last straw, the final thread of the relationship broke. She's saying sorry not in an apologetic way more in a "Yeah, I'm sorry you didn't come too because now I know I'm not a priority to you"
@@friendlyneigborhoodbean omg thank you!!
@@emogoesboom No problem. Taylor uses sorry in different ways a lot. It's a southern thing. They don't just use sorry in one way
I‘ve been listening to Taylor since Fearless. But I still can’t wrap around my head how she manages to create so vivid pictures in mind that I almost feel like I am the person in this song. Even though I never ever experienced a situation like this.
Im in my late 40’s weeping in my shower like a teenager because of this song, while I’ve never ever been stood up like that at a party….Its how powerful TS is….She can turn raw universal emotions into words that will resonate through your soul like nothing else can ❤
The background is Christmasy like, symbolizing her birthday month, December. 😭
😭😭😭😭😭😭
Also that specific birthday party was Christmas themed, she loves doing that
OH MY GOSH YESSSS
😭😭😭
@@taybieb wait rly?
. She sings about things that most people can relate to and I feel a very strong connection to her music.
“…and why I spend my whole life trying to put it into words”
