Wonderland (Taylor’s Version) Lyrics – Taylor Swift
Wonderland (Taylor’s Version) Lyrics
[Verse 1: Taylor Swift]
Flashing lights
And we took a wrong turn
And we fell down a rabbit hole
You held on tight to me
’Cause nothing's as it seems
And spinning out of control
[Pre-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
Didn't they tell us, "Don’t rush into things"?
Didn't you flash your green eyes at me?
Haven't you heard what becomes of curious minds?
Oh, didn't it all seem new and exciting?
I felt your arms twisting around me
I should have slept with one eye open at night
[Chorus: Taylor Swift]
We found Wonderland, you and I got lost in it
And we pretended it could last forever, eh
We found Wonderland, you and I got lost in it
And life was never worse, but nevеr better, eh, еh
[Post-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
In Wonderland
In Wonderland
In Wonderland
In Wonderland
[Verse 2: Taylor Swift]
So, we went on our way
Too in love to think straight
All alone, or so it seemed
But there were strangers watching
And whispers turned to talking
And talking turned to screams, oh
[Pre-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
Didn’t they tell us, "Don’t rush into things"?
Didn't you flash your green eyes at me?
Didn’t you calm my fears with a Cheshire cat smile?
Oh, didn't it all seem new and exciting?
I felt your arms twisting around me
It’s all fun and games 'til somebody loses their mind
But darling
[Chorus: Taylor Swift]
We found Wonderland, you and I got lost in it
And we pretended it could last forever, eh
We found Wonderland, you and I got lost in it
And life was never worse, but never better, eh, eh
[Post-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
In Wonderland, eh, eh
In Wonderland
In Wonderland, woah
In Wonderland
[Bridge: Taylor Swift]
I reached for you, but you were gone
I knew I had to go back home
You searched the world for something else
To make you feel like what we had
And in the end, in Wonderland, we both went mad
Oh
[Chorus: Taylor Swift]
We found Wonderland, you and I got lost in it
And we pretended it could last forever (Could last forever)
We found Wonderland, you and I got lost in it (Got lost in it)
And life was never worse, but never better (Never better)
We found Wonderland, you and I got lost in it (In Wonderland)
And we pretended it could last forever (In Wonderland)
We found Wonderland, you and I got lost in it (In Wonderland)
And life was never worse, but never better
In Wonderland
Wonderland (Taylor’s Version) Lyrics Meaning
"Wonderland (Taylor's Version)" by Taylor Swift, reflects the rollercoaster of emotions and experiences in a romantic relationship. It begins with excitement and wonder, but as it progresses, external pressures and internal issues start to surface. Ultimately, it leads to a sense of loss and confusion, wondering if the relationship has come to an end. The song captures the complexities and uncertainties that come with love and the inevitable highs and lows in a relationship.
[Verse 1]
In this opening verse, Taylor Swift describes a situation where she and her partner took a wrong turn in their relationship, much like falling down a rabbit hole, which is a reference to Alice's adventures in Wonderland. The flashing lights could symbolize the allure or excitement of the relationship, and despite the chaos and uncertainty, they held on to each other tightly. It's a metaphor for the unpredictable nature of love and the feeling of losing control.
[Pre-Chorus]
Here, Taylor reflects on the advice they received not to rush into things, but their curiosity and attraction to each other led them to dive headfirst into the relationship. The mention of "green eyes" and the Cheshire cat smile might allude to her partner's charming and enticing qualities. However, there's a sense of regret or caution, as she realizes that the initial excitement may have masked some underlying problems, making her wish she had been more cautious.
[Chorus]
The chorus describes the idea of finding a "Wonderland" with someone, a place where they got lost together, and the belief that this magical place could last forever. However, the "life was never worse but never better" part indicates that this Wonderland, while enchanting, also brought challenges and uncertainties.
[Post-Chorus]
The post-chorus repeats the idea of being in Wonderland, emphasizing the dreamlike quality of this place and the emotional intensity of the experience.
[Verse 2]
In the second verse, the relationship continues, but it becomes more complicated. The couple is too in love to think straight, and they may feel isolated. However, the mention of "strangers watchin'" and "whispers turned to talkin'" suggests that their relationship is being observed and discussed by others. The verse ends with a reference to "screams," indicating that the situation has become tumultuous and chaotic.
[Pre-Chorus]
The repetition of the pre-chorus emphasizes the idea of rushing into the relationship, the allure of her partner, and the temporary excitement. She references the Cheshire cat smile again, indicating that her partner might have had a way of charming her or calming her fears. However, the mention of it being "all fun and games" until someone loses their mind suggests that the relationship might have taken a toll on both of them.
[Chorus]
The chorus repeats the theme of finding Wonderland within the relationship, where they got lost together. Despite the challenges, it's a place they cherished, even if it was not without its problems.
[Post-Chorus]
The post-chorus reiterates the idea of being in Wonderland, emphasizing the magical and dreamlike quality of the relationship.
[Bridge]
In the bridge, there is a shift in the narrative. Taylor Swift reaches out for the person, but they're no longer there. It's a moment of realization that the relationship has ended, and she needs to return to reality. The person she was with has gone in search of something else to fill the void left by their past connection. The line "we both went mad" suggests that the relationship had a lasting impact on both of them, perhaps driving them to extremes emotionally.
[Chorus]
The final chorus is a repetition of the earlier one, emphasizing the idea that they found Wonderland together, but it didn't last, and their lives are now marked by a mix of both good and bad experiences.
In summary, "Wonderland (Taylor's Version)" seems to explore the complexities of a passionate but ultimately unsustainable relationship, with references to the ups and downs, the allure of the other person, and the eventual realization that the Wonderland they found couldn't last.
