Taylor Swift

Lyrics

[Intro: Ed Sheeran]
(You good to go?)

[Verse 1: Taylor Swift]
All I knew this morning when I woke
Is I know something now
Know something now I didn't before
And all I've seen since 18 hours ago
Is green eyes and freckles and your smile
In the back of my mind, making me feel like

[Pre-Chorus: Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran]
I just wanna know you better
Know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you better
Know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you better
Know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you, know you, know you

[Chorus: Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran]
'Cause all I know is we said, "Hello"
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name
And everything has changed
All I know is you held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday
Is everything has changed
[Verse 2: Ed Sheeran & Taylor Swift]
And all my walls stood tall, painted blue
And I'll take 'em down, take 'em down
And open up the door for you
And all I feel in my stomach is butterflies
The beautiful kind, making up for lost time
Taking flight, making me feel right
[Pre-Chorus: Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran]
I just wanna know you better
Know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you better
Know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you better
Know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you, know you, know you

[Chorus: Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran]
'Cause all I know is we said, "Hello"
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name
And everything has changed
All I know is you held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday
Is everything has changed
[Bridge: Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran]
Come back and tell me why
I'm feeling like I've missed you all this time
And meet me there tonight
And let me know that it's not all in my mind
[Pre-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
I just wanna know you better
Know you better, know you better now
I just wanna know you, know you, know you

[Chorus: Taylor Swift & Ed Sheeran]
'Cause all I know is we said, "Hello"
And your eyes look like coming home
All I know is a simple name
And everything has changed
All I know is you held the door
You'll be mine and I'll be yours
All I know since yesterday
Is everything has changed

[Outro: Taylor Swift]
All I know is we said, "Hello"
So dust off your highest hopes
All I know is pouring rain
And everything has changed
All I know is a new found grace
All my days, I'll know your face
All I know since yesterday
Is everything has changed

When it comes to love and its effects on one's life, Taylor Swift definitely knows how to express it through her music. "Everything Has Changed," featuring Ed Sheeran, is one of those songs where she takes us on a rollercoaster of emotions as she sings about the ways in which someone new has flipped her life upside down. The song appears on Taylor's fourth album, "Red," and at its core, it explores the excitement and uncertainty that comes with falling for someone new.

About Everything Has Changed

Everything Has Changed is a song that talks about the impact a new relationship could have on one's life. Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran collaborate for the first time on this track, and the result is nothing short of beautiful. The combination of their voices is seamless, and their harmonies do justice to the depth of the lyrics.

The song starts with a description of the unfamiliarity that comes with falling for someone new. The first verse describes how the proximity of the person makes her feel different, she is nervous and lost for words, but at the same time, she is captivated, and just being around that person makes everything else okay. By the time the song reaches the chorus, we get a sense of the magnitude of this new relationship to Taylor as she sings "Cause all I know is we said hello and your eyes look like coming home."

As the song progresses, Taylor and Ed's voices blend beautifully to describe the emotional journey of how they fell in love with one another; time stood still, and nothing else mattered. Their worlds were transformed, and as the title suggests, everything has changed.

The music video for the song is just as enchanting and follows a day in the life of two young misfits who find each other and become good friends in the same elementary school. As the video progresses, it's clear they develop romantic feelings for each other. At the video's end, it is revealed that the girl is Taylor's daughter, and the boy is Ed's son.

The musical arrangement of the track primarily includes acoustic guitar and percussion, with a harmonious blend of different other instruments. The track's instrumentation perfectly complements the lyrics, emphasizing the emotional journey the singers experienced and adding a touch of nostalgia to the track.

In keeping with her tradition of hiding messages in her albums, the hidden message in this song is "Hyannis Port," a location where Taylor spent the 4th of July with her then-boyfriend, Conor Kennedy.

Conclusion

The track's instrumentation complements the melody beautifully, adding a touch of nostalgia and emphasizing the song's emotional journey.
