Timeless Taylor's Version
[00:14.10] Down the block, there's an antique shop
[00:17.02] And something in my head said, "Stop," so I walked in
[00:21.00] On the counter was a cardboard box
[00:23.67] And the sign said, "Photos: twenty-five cents each"
[00:27.42] Black and white, saw a '30s bride
[00:30.34] And school lovers laughin' on the porch of their first house
[00:34.06] The kinda love that you only find once in a lifetime
[00:38.57] The kind you don't put down
[00:41.22] And that's when I called you and it's so hard to explain
[00:47.07] But in those photos, I saw us instead
[00:53.98] And, somehow, I know that you and I would've found each other
[00:59.82] In another life, you still would've turned my head even if we'd met
[01:07.54] On a crowded street in 1944
[01:10.99] And you were headed off to fight in the war
[01:14.17] You still would've been mine
[01:16.83] We would have been timeless
[01:20.29] I would've read your love letters every single night
[01:24.01] And prayed to God you'd be comin' home all right
[01:27.73] And you would've been fine
[01:30.65] We would have been timeless
[01:34.10] 'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
[01:39.41] So, even in a different life, you still would've been mine
[01:43.41] We would've been timeless
[01:57.75] I had to smile when it caught my eye
[02:00.93] There was one of a teenage couple in the driveway
[02:04.91] Holdin' hands on the way to a dance
[02:07.57] And the date on the back said 1958
[02:11.82] Which brought me back to the first time I saw you
[02:14.47] Time stood still like somethin' in this old shop
[02:18.19] I thought about it as I started lookin' 'round
[02:21.38] At these precious things that time forgot
[02:24.57] That's when I came upon a book covered in cobwebs
[02:31.47] Story of a romance torn apart by fate
[02:38.65] Hundreds of years ago, they fell in love, like we did
[02:45.02] And I'd die for you in the same way if I first saw your face
[02:50.86] In the fifteen hundreds off in a foreign land
[02:54.58] And I was forced to marry another man
[02:58.30] You still would've been mine
[03:00.70] We would have been timeless
[03:04.14] I would've read your love letters every single night
[03:08.40] And run away and left it all behind
[03:11.59] You still would've been mine
[03:13.97] We would've been timeless
[03:18.22] 'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
[03:23.54] So, even in a different life, you still would've been mine
[03:25.93] We would've been timeless
[03:41.86] Time breaks down your mind and body
[03:48.26] Don't you let it touch your soul
[03:54.89] It was like an age-old classic
[03:58.35] The first time that you saw me
[04:01.54] The story started when you said, "Hello"
[04:08.71] In a crowded room a few short years ago
[04:11.90] And sometimes there's no proof, you just know
[04:15.89] You're always gonna be mine
[04:17.75] We're gonna be
[04:21.46] I'm gonna love you when our hair is turnin' gray
[04:25.17] We'll have a cardboard box of photos of the life we've made
[04:29.16] And you'll say, "Oh my, we really were timeless"
[04:35.01] We're gonna be timeless, timeless
[04:41.39] You still would've been mine
[04:44.57] We would've been
[04:47.22] Even if we'd met on a crowded street in 1944
[04:54.93] You still would've been mine
[04:58.42] We would've been
[05:02.40] Down the block, there's an antique shop
[05:05.60] And somethin' in my head said, "Stop," so I walked in
