Love story

創作背景

2007年年底，環球唱片公司率先為泰勒·斯威夫特在非鄉村類的主流電台和電視台進行了大力推廣，並且為她制定了鄉村、流行和搖滾的跨界音樂定位和發展路線。這首歌曲的歌詞的靈感來自莎士比亞的經典悲劇《羅密歐與朱麗葉》和歌手Taylor Swift自己的生活實際：一對戀人因為家族矛盾和父母反對無法走到一起，但卻不屈於命運安排，最後用真摯的愛情感化了父母，過上幸福生活的故事。泰勒沒有借用莎士比亞的悲劇結尾，而是自己書寫了一個全新、美好的結局，使整個故事更加感人，歌曲曲風也不顯乏味。

歌曲歌詞

We were both young when I first saw you.I close my eyes and the flashback starts:Im standing there on a balcony in summer air.See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns.《Love Story》See you make your way through the crowdand say hello;Little did I knowThat 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, dont go.And I said,Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.Ill be waiting; all theres left to do is run.Youll be the prince and Ill be the princessIts a love story baby just say Yes.So I sneak out to the garden to see you.We keep quiet cause were dead if they knew.So close your eyes; escape this town for a little while.Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter,And my daddy said Stay away from Juliet,Love Story MV拍攝地Castle Gwynn (5張)But you were everything to me; I was begging you, Please, dont go,And I said,Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone.Ill be waiting; all theres left to do is run.Youll be the prince and Ill be the princessIts a love story baby just say Yes.Romeo save me; theyre tryin to tell me how to feel.This love is difficult, but its real.Dont be afraid; well make it out of this mess.Its a love story baby just say Yes.I got tired of waiting,Wondering if you were ever comin around.Love Story MV截圖(8張)My faith in you was fadingWhen I met you on the outskirts of town.And I said,Romeo save me Ive been feeling so alone.I keep waiting for you but you never come.Is this in my head? I dont know what to thinkHe knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said,Marry me, Juliet. youll never have to be alone.I love you and thats all I really know.I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress;Its a love story baby just say Yes.Oh, oh.We were both young when I first saw you
