Timeless (Taylors Version) (From The Vault)
[00:00.53] "Timeless (Taylor's Version) (From The Vault)"
[00:07.69] Taylor Swift
[00:14.14] Down the block, there's an antique shop
[00:16.80] And something in my head said, "Stop," so I walked in
[00:20.81] On the counter was a cardboard box
[00:23.81] And the sign said, "Photos: twenty-five cents each"
[00:27.84] Black and white, saw a '30s bride
[00:30.51] And school lovers laughin' on the porch of their first house
[00:34.24] The kinda love that you only find once in a lifetime
[00:38.52] The kind you don't put down
[00:41.21] And that's when I called you and it's so hard to explain
[00:46.39] But in those photos, I saw us instead
[00:54.33] And, somehow, I know that you and I would've found each other
[01:00.79] In another life, you still would've turned my head even if we'd met
[01:07.42] On a crowded street in 1944
[01:11.13] And you were headed off to fight in the war
[01:14.60] You still would've been mine
[01:16.19] We would have been timeless
[01:20.21] I would've read your love letters every single night
[01:24.45] And prayed to God you'd be comin' home all right
[01:28.19] And you would've been fine
[01:29.81] We would have been timeless
[01:34.33] 'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
[01:39.38] So, even in a different life, you still would've been mine
[01:43.09] We would've been timeless
[01:58.01] I had to smile when it caught my eye
[02:00.92] There was one of a teenage couple in the driveway
[02:04.90] Holdin' hands on the way to a dance
[02:07.62] And the date on the back said 1958
[02:11.60] Which brought me back to the first time I saw you
[02:14.61] Time stood still like somethin' in this old shop
[02:18.35] I thought about it as I started lookin' 'round
[02:21.01] At these precious things that time forgot
[02:24.71] That's when I came upon a book covered in cobwebs
[02:31.36] Story of a romance torn apart by fate
[02:38.27] Hundreds of years ago, they fell in love, like we did
[02:45.17] And I'd die for you in the same way if I first saw your face
[02:51.28] In the fifteen hundreds off in a foreign land
[02:55.28] And I was forced to marry another man
[02:58.74] You still would've been mine
[03:00.33] We would have been timeless
[03:04.57] I would've read your love letters every single night
[03:08.58] And run away and left it all behind
[03:12.01] You still would've been mine
[03:13.88] We would've been timeless
[03:18.41] 'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
[03:23.45] So, even in a different life, you still would've been mine
[03:27.25] We would've been timeless
[03:41.87] Time breaks down your mind and body
[03:48.50] Don't you let it touch your soul
[03:54.65] It was like an age-old classic
[03:58.37] The first time that you saw me
[04:01.83] The story started when you said, "Hello"
[04:08.21] In a crowded room a few short years ago
[04:12.19] And sometimes there's no proof, you just know
[04:15.64] You're always gonna be mine
[04:17.48] We're gonna be
[04:21.78] I'm gonna love you when our hair is turnin' gray
[04:24.95] We'll have a cardboard box of photos of the life we've made
[04:29.22] And you'll say, "Oh my, we really were timeless"
[04:34.81] We're gonna be timeless, timeless
[04:42.81] You still would've been mine
[04:44.39] We would've been
[04:47.06] Even if we'd met on a crowded street in 1944
[04:56.11] You still would've been mine
[04:57.97] We would've been
[05:03.03] Down the block, there's an antique shop
[05:05.69] And somethin' in my head said, "Stop," so I walked in
