Love Story Lyrics » Taylor Swift
[Verse 1]
We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I’m standing there
On a balcony in summer air
See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say, “Hello”
Little did I know
[Pre-Chorus]
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said, “Stay away from Juliet”
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you, “Please don’t go,” and I said
[Chorus]
Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I’ll be waiting, all there’s left to do is run
You’ll be the prince and I’ll be the princess
It’s a love story, baby, just say, “Yes”
[Verse 2]
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet ’cause we’re dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while, oh, oh

About Taylor Swift’s Love Story from Fearless (2008)
Taylor was inspired to write “Love Story” when she was going through a difficult situation with a boy she liked, whom she wasn’t “officially” dating. The song has been rumored to be about two singers – the first being Joe Jonas, since it was recorded in March of 2008, just a few months before she began
actually dating him
. Other songs such as
“Forever & Always”
and
“Last Kiss”
are more explicitly about him.
The second rumored subject of the song is
Boys Like Girls
front-man,
Martin Johnson
whom
Swift had a brief fling with in 2008
and collaborated with to pen the band’s track
“Two is Better Than One”
and Taylor’s song
“If This Was a Movie”
. This is a fitting match for the “star-crossed lovers” theme of the song as
sources claimed
that although the pair were into each other, Taylor’s publicists felt he was not a good match for her “American sweetheart” image – with him being a punk rocker who was going through personal issues at the time.
She chose to portray the story of
Romeo and Juliet
in the song, because
she felt like she could relate
.
I used to be in high school where you see [a boyfriend] every day. Then I was in a situation where it wasn’t so easy for me, and I wrote this song because I could relate to the whole Romeo and Juliet thing.
The lyrics talk about disapproval against the relationship, and her desire to go somewhere far away with him, and escape the people who look down on them.
“Love Story” peaked at #1 on
Billboard
’s Hot Country Songs, and at #5 on the
Billboard
Hot 100, just weeks after its release.
The song’s
music video
was described as timeless, by Swift.
‘Love Story’’s plot was a timeless scenario: I think it could happen in the 1700s, the 1800s, or 2008
The video won the CMT Music Awards for “Video of the Year,” as well as “Female Video of the Year.”
In February 2021, “Love Story” became the first official
re-release from Taylor’s backcatalog
following contractual disputes with Scooter Braun. It marked the beginning of a new chapter in her career as she sought autonomy and freedom from what she perceived as a manipulative business relationship.

FAQs About Love Story
What did Taylor Swift say about “Love Story”?
In
an interview
with the

I was going through a situation like that where I could relate. I used to be in high school where you see a boyfriend every day. Then I was in a situation where it wasn’t so easy for me, and I wrote this song because I could relate to the whole Romeo and Juliet thing. I was really inspired by that story. Except for the ending. I feel like they had such promise and they were so crazy for each other. And if that had just gone a little bit differently, it could have been the best love story ever told. And it is one of the best love stories ever told, but it’s a tragedy. I thought, why can’t you… make it a happy ending and put a key change in the song and turn it into a marriage proposal.
