Guessing Game: Which Celebrities Are the Surprising Stars of Taylor Swift’s Songs?
Red (Red, 2012)
Who was it about: Jake Gyllenhall
Lyrics: “Like the colors in autumn, so bright just before they lose it all.”
Story behind the lyrics: “Red,” a track from Taylor’s album of the same name, paints a vivid, emotionally charged picture of a love story at its peak, reminiscent of autumn’s fleeting beauty. As expected of the legendary songwriter, she didn’t miss the mark, conveying her gut-wrenching emotions through her lyrics. She skillfully used the metaphor of autumn, a season known for its stunning yet transient beauty, to describe her relationship with Jake, which was equally magnificent and short-lived. Even though the couple dated for about three months, the magnitude of the emotional toll Taylor took was indescribable.
