evermore

[Verse 1: Taylor Swift] Gray November I've been down since July Motion capture Put me in a bad light I replay my footsteps on each stepping stone Trying to find the one where I went wrong Writing letters Addressed to the fire [Chorus: Taylor Swift] And I was catchin' my breath Starin' out an open window, catchin' my death And I couldn't be sure I had a feeling so peculiar That this pain would be for Evermore [Verse 2: Taylor Swift] Hey, December Guess I'm feeling unmoored Can't remember What I used to fight for I rewind thе tape, but all it does is pause On thе very moment all was lost Sending signals To be double-crossed [Chorus: Taylor Swift] And I was catchin' my breath Barefoot in the wildest winter, catchin' my death And I couldn't be sure I had a feeling so peculiar That this pain would be for Evermore [Post-Chorus: Justin Vernon] (Evermore) [Bridge: Justin Vernon, Taylor Swift] Can't not think of all the cost And the things that will be lost Oh, can we just get a pause? To be certain we'll be tall again Whether weather be the frost Or the violence of the dog days I'm on waves, out being tossed Is there a line that I could just go cross? And when I was shipwrecked (Can't think of all the cost now) I thought of you (All the things that will be lost now) In the cracks of light (Can we just get a pause?) I dreamed of you (To be certain we'll be tall again) (If you think of all the cost) It was real enough (Whether weather be the frost) To get me through (Or the violence of the dog days) (Or the violence of the dog days) (Out on waves, being tossed) (I'm on waves, out being tossed) But I swear (Is there a line that we can just go cross?) You were there [Chorus: Taylor Swift & Justin Vernon] And I was catchin' my breath Floors of a cabin creakin' under my step And I couldn't be sure I had a feeling so peculiar This pain wouldn't be for Evermore [Outro: Taylor Swift, Justin Vernon, Both] Evermore (Evermore) Evermore (Evermore) This pain wouldn't be for evermore Evermore
