KICK IT OR KEEP IT: “If This Was A Movie” by Taylor Swift

A re-release of a 13-year-old song from Taylor Swift is up for vote in this week’s Kick It or Keep It on SVI Radio.

Ahead of her first live tour in five years, Swift announced on Friday that she would release four new songs, one previously unreleased and three re-recorded.  Two of the re-recorded songs include “Eyes Open” and “Safe & Sound” which were initially recorded for the 2012 movie The Hunger Games. She also has revealed a previously unreleased song form her 2019 album Lover. 

The fourth song jumped up to #1 on the iTunes country downloads over the weekend and is this week’s Kick It or Keep It. “If This Was A Movie (Taylor’s Version)” was re-recorded and released as a single. The original version of the song came out in 2010 as part of Swift’s album Speak Now.

Lyrics

Last night I heard my own heart beating
Sounded like footsteps on my stairs
Six months gone and I’m still reaching
Even though I know you’re not there
I was playing back a thousand memories, baby
Thinking ’bout everything we’ve been through
Maybe I’ve been going back too much lately
When time stood still and I had you
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You would, you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside until I came out
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You could, you could, if you just said, “You’re sorry”
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie, you’d be here by now
I know people change and these things happen
But I remember how it was back then
Wrapped up in your arms and our friends were laughing
‘Cause nothing like this ever happened to them
Now, I’m pacing down the hall
Chasing down your street
Flashback to night when you said to me
Nothing’s gonna change, not for me and you
Not before I knew how much I had to lose
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You would, you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside until I came out
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You could, you could, if you just said, “You’re sorry”
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie, you’d be here by now
If you’re out there, if you’re somewhere, if you’re moving on
I’ve been waiting for you ever since you’ve been gone
I just want it back the way it was before
And I just want to see you back at my front door
And I’d say, come back, come back
Come back to me like
You would before you said it’s not that easy
Before the fight, before I locked you out
But I take it all back now
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You would, you would if this was a movie
Stand in the rain outside until I came out
Come back, come back, come back to me like
You could, you could, if you just said, “You’re sorry”
I know that we could work it out somehow
But if this was a movie, you’d be here by now
You’d be here by now
It’s not the kind of ending you wanna see now
Baby, what about the ending?
Oh, I thought you’d be here by now
Whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Thought you’d be here by now
Let us know what you think!
