#that’s why those two are paired with that one lyric because it’s twofold the touch lights a fire that can be exciting but also scary

I am obsessed with all of the parallels to “ivy” on the Speak Now vault tracks. Like “still hoping that the fire won’t burn me” -> “it’s a goddamn blaze in the dark and you started it” and “he’s going to burn this house to the ground,” “got a feeling your electric touch could fill this ghost town up with life” -> “your touch brought forth an incandescent glow,” “turns out her heart fits right in the palm of his hand” -> “my pain fits in the palm of your freezing hand” and “in the fifteen hundreds off in a foreign land and I was forced to marry another man you still would’ve been mine”-> “I'd live and die for moments that we stole on begged and borrowed time so tell me to run or dare to sit and watch what we'll become and drink my husband's wine.”

#taylor swift #speak now tv #ivy #lyric parallels #electric touch #when emma falls in love #timeless #like the electric touch one is cool because it’s similar to ivy in the fact the contact ignites the fire #it’s like there’s a fear with that fire of it not working out and in ivy that fear stems from being found out #but there’s also excitement in there with her hoping it will bring good into her life #that’s why those two are paired with that one lyric because it’s twofold the touch lights a fire that can be exciting but also scary
