Mine:Taylor Swift

Mine Lyrics by Taylor Swift
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

You were in college, working part-time, waiting tables (older man she seems interested)
Left a small town and never looked back (he needed to get as so did she)
I was a flight risk, afraid of fallin'(afraid of going back to the old ways)
Wondering why we bother with love, if it never lasts(waste of time what am I doing)

I say, "Can you believe it?" (she’s surprised she found love)
As we're lyin' on the couch
The moment, I can see it(she ‘s sees them in the future together)
Yes, yes, I can see it now

Do you remember, we were sittin' there, by the water?(memories of the first times they met)
You put your arm around me for the fist time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter(he changed her to do things she never do)
You are the best thing that's ever been mine ( You are my everything)

Flash forward, and we're takin' on the world together( she’s telling a story about how she met her husband) not in real life though
And there's a drawer of my things at your place (moving in together)
You learn my secrets and figure out why I'm guarded
You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes(Doesn’t want to get in a divorce like her parents did)

But we got bills to pay ( All of the problems that could turn things bad)
We got nothin' figured out
When it was hard to take
Yes, yes

This is what I thought about:

Do you remember, we were sittin' there, by the water?
You put your arm around me for the fist time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Do you remember all the city lights on the water?
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Oh, oh, oh, oh

And I remember that fight, two-thirty AM ( the big fight over all the problems that happened when moved in together)
You said everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out, crying, and you followed me out into the street

Braced myself for the goodbye, cause that's all I've ever known
Then, you took me by surprise
You said, "I'll never leave you alone."

You said, "I remember how we felt, sitting by the water.
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time.
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter.
She is the best thing that's ever been mine."

You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Do you believe it?
We're gonna make it now
And I can see it

I can see it now
From the album Speak Now (2010)
I chose to do this because she’s telling the story of how she met her husband and that love is good and bad. She speaks of the struggles and the highs of being young together. "MINE lyrics - TAYLOR SWIFT." Lyrics. N.p., n.d. Web. 13 Dec.2010.
