the lakes lyrics

306 17 6
                                    

Verse 1

Is it romantic how all my elegies eulogize me?
I'm not cut out for all these cynical clones
These hunters with cell phones

Chorus

Take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die
I don't belong, and my beloved, neither do you
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
I'm setting off, but not without my muse

Verse 2

What should be over burrowed under my skin
In heart-stopping waves of hurt
I've come too far to watch some namedropping sleaze
Tell me what are my words worth

Chorus

Take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die
I don't belong, and my beloved, neither do you
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
I'm setting off, but not without my muse

Bridge

I want auroras and sad prose
I want to watch wisteria grow right over my bare feet
'Cause I haven't moved in years
And I want you right here
A red rose grew up out of ice frozen ground
With no one around to tweet it
While I bathe in cliffside pools
With my calamitous love and insurmountable grief

Chorus

Take me to the lakes where all the poets went to die
I don't belong, and my beloved, neither do you
Those Windermere peaks look like a perfect place to cry
I'm setting off, but not without my muse
No, not without you



Note:

Happy new year, co-Swifties!

As much as I wanted to post lyrics from Taylor's new album, evermore, Wattpad only allows 200 parts for a book. And since this is the 200th part of Taylor Swift Lyrics and Trivias, this is going to be the last part and chapter of this lyric book.

I had fun meeting a lot of Swiftie friends as I made this lyric book of Taylor's discography. Thank you for being here and for the never ending support for Taylor Swift.
