Ivy Song Lyrics by Taylor Swift
How’s one to know?I’d meet you where the spirit meets the bonesIn a faith forgotten landIn from the snowYour touch brought forth an incandescent glowTarnished but so grand
And the old widow goes to the stone every dayBut I don’t, I just sit here and waitGrieving for the living
Oh, goddamnMy pain fits in the palm of your freezing handTaking mine, but it’s been promised to anotherOh, I can’tStop you putting roots in my dreamlandMy house of stone, your ivy growsAnd now I’m covered in you
I wish to knowThe fatal flaw that makes you long to beMagnificently cursedHe’s in the roomYour opal eyes are all I wish to seeHe wants what’s only yours
Oh, goddamnMy pain fits in the palm of your freezing handTaking mine, but it’s been promised to anotherOh, I can’tStop you putting roots in my dreamlandMy house of stone, your ivy growsAnd now I’m covered
Clover blooms in the fieldsSpring breaks loose, the time is nearWhat would he do if he found us out?Crescent moon, coast is clearSpring breaks loose, but so does fearHe’s gonna burn this house to the ground
How’s one to know?I’d live and die for moments that we stoleOn begged and borrowed timeSo tell me to runOr dare to sit and watch what we’ll becomeAnd drink my husband’s wine
Oh, goddamnMy pain fits in the palm of your freezing handTaking mine, but it’s been promised to anotherOh, I can’tStop you putting roots in my dreamlandMy house of stone, your ivy growsAnd now I’m covered in youAnd I’m covered in you
So yeah, it’s a fireIt’s a goddamn blaze in the darkAnd you started itYou started itSo yeah, it’s a warIt’s the goddamn fight of my lifeAnd you started itYou started it
Oh, I can’tStop you putting roots in my dreamlandMy house of stone, your ivy growsAnd now I’m coveredIn youIn you, youNow I’m covered in youIn you
