Taylor Swift - Cardigan

Vintage tee
Brand new phone
High heels on
Cobblestones
When you are young
They assume you know nothing

Sequin smile
Black lipstick
Sensual
Politics
When you are young
They assume you know nothing

But I knew you
Dancing in your Levi's
Drunk under a streetlight, I
I knew you
Hand under my sweatshirt
Baby, kiss it better, I

And when I felt
Like I was an old cardigan
Under someone's bed
You put me on
And said I was your favorite

A friend to all
Is a friend to none
Chase two girls
Lose the one
When you are young
They assume you know nothing

But I knew you
Playing hide-and-seek and
Giving me your weekends, I
I knew you
Your heartbeat on the High Line
Once in twenty lifetimes, I And when I felt
Like I was an old cardigan
Under someone's bed
You put me on
And said I was your favorite

To kiss in cars
And downtown bars
Was all we needed
You drew stars
Around my scars
But now I'm bleeding

Cause I knew you
Stepping on the last train
Marked me like a bloodstain, I
I knew you
Tried to change the ending
Peter losing Wendy, I
I knew you
Leaving like a father
Running like water, I
And when you are young
They assume you know nothing

But I knew you'd linger
Like a tattoo kiss
I knew you'd haunt
All of my what-ifs
The smell of smoke
Would hang around this long
Cause I knew everything
When I was young

I knew I'd curse you
For the longest time
Chasing shadows
In the grocery line
I knew you'd miss me
Once the thrill expired
And you'd be standing
In my front porch light

And I knew you'd come back to me
You'd come back to me
And you'd come back to me
And you'd come back

And when I felt
Like I was an old cardigan
Under someone's bed
You put me on
And said I was your favorite
