Over a decade has passed, and "Love Story" - Taylor Swift's iconic song keeps captivating millions of her fans. The proof is that the remix of this hit song has attracted 8.3 million views on Tiktok.

Inspired by Romeo-Juliet's classic love story, Love Story is also a story of forbidden love. However, if the original version had a tragic ending, Taylor Swift gave it a "happy ending" of her own.

Love Story is the rejected love story of Taylor Swift in high school. But not many people know that she wrote this song in a concise amount of time, just over 20 minutes. Taylor Swift recounted that her parents forbade her to be with the person she loved. That moment of despair inspired the singer to compose this sweet country song.

Taylor Swift fought with her parents and management company to make Love Story the lead single for the album Fearless, opening the door to success in her music career.
Outstanding achievements of "Love Story" can be mentioned: the country song has the highest-paid download in history. The first country song to dominate Billboard's Mainstream Top 40 chart (2009). Reached the top 5 of the Billboard Hot 100 at No.4 (Taylor's first song to do so).

MV Love Story helped Taylor Swift win Video of the Year at the 2009 Country Music Television Awards and Country Music Association Awards. In addition, it also helped her win the "Song of the Year" award at the 2009 BMI Country Awards.

The original Love Story is included in the studio album Fearless, released in 2008. In June 2019. Braun Scooter bought Big Machine Records - Taylor Swift's former management company, which means owning her first six studio albums, from Taylor Swift (2006) to Reputation (2017) and Fearless. 

Taylor Swift said that Braun Scooter and Big Machine Records founder Scott Borchette did not allow her to perform her old songs on television, which had to be recorded. Therefore, the female singer entered the studio again to make the album Fearless.

On February 11, 2021, she released a new version of "Love Story," still the same old tune, but Taylor Swift's voice is much better. It can be seen that the female artist has made the public satisfied with this version.

Love Story lyrics:

[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

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
But you were everything to me
I was 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"
Romeo, save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story, baby, just say "Yes"

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh

[Bridge]
I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town

[Breakdown]
And I said, "Romeo, save me, I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think"
He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring, and said

[Chorus]
"Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone
I love you, and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby, just say 'Yes'"

[Outro]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
'Cause we were both young when I first saw you
