Long Live

創作背景

泰勒·斯威夫特在自己的官網上寫道：“這首歌是獻給我的樂隊和製作人的，還有所有那些幫助我們一點一點成長起來的人。還有所有冬粉，他們總讓我感覺和他們緊密的聯繫在一起”。

(Verse:)

I said remember this moment

In the back of my mind

The time we stood with our shaking hands

The crowds in stands went wild

We were the kings and the queens

And they read off our names

The night you danced like you knew our lives would never be the same

You held your head like a hero on a history book page

It was the end of a decade

But the start of an age

(Chorus:)

Long live the walls we crashed through

How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you

I was screaming long live all the magic we made

And bring on all the pretenders

One day we will be remembered

(Verse:)

I said remember this feeling

I pass the pictures around

Of all the years that we stood there on the sidelines

Wishing for right now

We are the kings and the queens

You traded your baseball cap for a crown

When they gave us our trophies

And we held them up for our town

And the cynics were outraged

Screaming this is absurd

Cause for a moment a band of thievesin ripped up jeans got to rule the world

(Chorus:)
