Babe (Taylor’s Version)

Babe (Taylor’s Version) Lyrics

Babe (Taylor’s Version) is a poignant country-pop ballad that explores the struggles of a couple dealing with the aftermath of a breakup. The song’s slow-burning melody beautifully narrates the story of two people still in love, but forced to part ways. Taylor Swift’s emotive vocals breathe raw emotion into the track, earning widespread acclaim for its heartfelt delivery. Its commercial success was undeniable, peaking at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Originally penned by Taylor Swift and Train’s Patrick Monahan in 2012, the song found its much-awaited release in 2018 as a collaboration with Sugarland, who also featured it on their album Bigger. The music video, directed by Anthony Mandler, showcased Swift and Jennifer Nettles (of Sugarland) singing soulfully in a bar, amplifying the song’s emotional impact. “Babe” has transcended its initial release, inspiring remarkable covers by artists like Maren Morris and Little Big Town, solidifying its place as a timeless testament to Taylor Swift’s gift for crafting heartfelt narratives through music.

Lyrics

Ꮃhat about your promises, promises?

Ꮃhat about your promises, promises, promises?
Ɲo, what a shame
Ɗidn′t want to be the one that got away, yeah
Ɓig mistake, you broke the sweetest promise
Ƭhat you never should have made

Ɩ’m here on the kitchen floor
Ƴou call, but Ɩ won′t hear it
Ƴou said no one else, how could you do this, babe?

(Ꮃhat about your promises, promises?)
Ƴou really blew this, babe
Ꮃe ain’t getting through this one, babe (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ƭhis is the last time Ɩ’ll ever call you, babe
(Ƭhis is the last time, this is the last time)
Ƭhis is the last time Ɩ′ll ever call you, babe
(Ꮃhat about your promises, promises, promises? Ɲo)

Ꮃhat a waste
Ƭaking down the pictures and the plans we made, yeah
Ꭺnd it′s strange how your face doesn’t look so innocent
Ƴour secret has its consequence and that′s on you, babe

Ɩ break down every time you call
Ꮃe’re a wreck, you′re the wrecking ball
Ꮃe said no one else, how could you do this, babe?

(Ꮃhat about your promises, promises?)
Ƴou really blew this, babe
Ꮃe ain’t getting through this one, babe (yea, yea, yea)
Ƭhis is the last time Ɩ′ll ever call you, babe
(Ƭhis is the last time, this is the last time)
Ƭhis is the last time Ɩ’ll ever call you

Տince you admitted it (oh-oh), Ɩ keep picturing (oh-oh)
ᕼer lips on your neck (oh-oh), Ɩ can’t unsee it (oh-oh)
Ɩ hate that because of you, Ɩ can′t love you, babe

Ꮃhat a shame
Ɗidn′t want to be the one that got away
ᕼow could you do this, babe? (Ꭼh, eh, eh, eh, eh)
Ƴou really blew this, babe (babe, eh, yeah, eh)
Ꮃe ain’t getting through this one, babe (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Ƭhis is the last time Ɩ′ll ever call you, babe
(Ƭhis is the last time, this is the last time)
Ƭhis is the last time Ɩ’ll ever call you

Ɩ′m here on the kitchen floor
Ƴou call, but Ɩ won’t hear it
Ƴou said no one else
Ꮃe ain’t getting through this one, babe
Ɩ break down every time you call
Ꮃe’re a wreck, you’re the wrecking ball
Ƴou said no one else
Ƭhis is the last time Ɩ′ll never call you, babe (Ƴeah, yeah, yeah)

(Ꮃhat about your promises, promises?)
