Guessing Game: Which Celebrities Are the Surprising Stars of Taylor Swift’s Songs?
Lover (Lover, 2019)
Who was it about: Joe Alwyn
Lyrics: “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.”
Story behind the lyrics: “Lover,” from Taylor’s album that shares the same name, is like a fairy tale waltz spun from the strings of real-life romance. It paints a picture of a love that’s magnetic, a force that pulls her towards Joe, her own personal North Star. The line about hearts borrowed and blue spins the classic “something borrowed, something blue” wedding adage into a tale of two souls, mended and made whole by love. The song is a lyrical dance through the ups and downs of love, landing in the arms of a relationship that feels like home.
