    lyrics about marriage

    On the title track, Taylor makes her desires known, singing: "At dinner, you take my ring off my middle finger / And put it on the one people put wedding rings on / And that’s the closest I’ve come to my heart exploding," suggesting she'd be delighted at the idea of marriage.

    "Are you gonna marry, kiss, or kill me / It’s just a game, but really / I’m bettin’ on all three for us two," Taylor sings whimsically, predicting a happily ever after for her and Travis.

    That said, Taylor has been known to change her opinion on marriage in the past. Back in 2019, her album Lover was peppered with lovesick references to marriage, such as "I'd marry you with paper rings," and a whole verse in the title track, Lover, dedicated to a traditional wedding speech.

    It remains to be seen whether her wish will come true, but we're betting fans will be the first to notice if Taylor does get engaged!
