Verse 1
Justin Vernon
I can see you standing, honey
With his arms around your body
Laughin', but the joke's not funny at all
And it took you five whole minutes
To pack us up and leave me with it
Holdin' all this love out here in the hall
Chorus
Justin Vernon
I think I've seen this film before
And I didn't like the ending
You're not my homeland anymore
So what am I defending now?
You were my town, now I'm in exile, seein' you out
I think I've seen this film before
After chorus
Justin Vernon
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Verse 2
Taylor Swift
I can see you starin', honey
Like he's just your understudy
Like you'd get your knuckles bloody for me
Second, third, and hundredth chances
Balancin' on breaking branches
Those eyes add insult to injury
Chorus
Taylor Swift
I think I've seen this film before
And I didn't like the ending
I'm not your problem anymore
So who am I offending now?
You were my crown, now I'm in exile, seein' you out
I think I've seen this film before
So I'm leaving out the side door
Bridge
Justin Vernon, Taylor Swift & Both
So step right out, there is no amount
Of crying I can do for you
All this time
We always walked a very thin line
You didn't even hear me out [You didn't even hear me out
You never gave a warning sign [I gave so many signs
All this time
I never learned to read your mind [Never learned to read my mind
I couldn't turn things around [You never turned things around
'Cause you never gave a warning sign [I gave so many signs
So many signs, so many signs
You didn't even see the signs
Chorus
Taylor Swift & Justin Vernon, Taylor Swift
I think I've seen this film before
And I didn't like the ending
You're not my homeland anymore
So what am I defending now?
You were my town, now I'm in exile, seein' you out
I think I've seen this film before
So I'm leavin' out the side door
Outro
Justin Vernon & Taylor Swift
So step right out, there is no amount
Of crying I can do for you
All this time
We always walked a very thin line
You didn't even hear me out [Didn't even hear me out
You never gave a warning sign [I gave so many signs
All this time
I never learned to read your mind [Never learned to read my mind
I couldn't turn things around [You never turned things around
'Cause you never gave a warning sign [I gave so many signs
You never gave a warning sign [All this time
[So many times] I never learned to read your mind
[So many signs] I couldn't turn things around [I couldn't turn things around
'Cause you never gave a warning sign [You never gave a warning sign
You never gave a warning sign
Ah, ah
