Nevermind Lyrics

Look at you
Look at me
Look at who
We could be

I wanna know
Who you are
What you want
From the start

And everytime I look at you
I can hardly say a thing
my head starts to spin
And it hits me then
I love you

And everytime you look at me
I could go crazy but I don't
say it but I won't
Cause I'd rather be alone
Than lose you

And all I really wanna do is be next to you
But I'm too tired to fight
And I could tell you now
But baby, nevermind

All the time
Everyday
There's nothing I can do baby
To make it go away

So look at you
And look at me
Now think of who
We could be

And everytime I look at you
I can hardly say a thing
my head starts to spin
And it hits me then
I love you

And everytime you look at me I could go crazy
but I don't say it but I won't
Cause I'd rather be alone
Than lose you

And all I really wanna do is be next to you
But I'm too tired to fight
And I could tell you now
But baby, nevermind

All I really wanna say is I need you babe
But how could you understand
What happens if you turn away
And everything turns blue and grey
And I just wish I told you, nevermind

And I could tell you now
But baby nevermind

Yeah
Oh yeah

I could tell you now but nevermind

Yeah
Oh yeah yeah

And I could tell you now but nevermind

A song about being hopelessly in love, but not wanting to tell. Taylor's old songs are so underrated!

Cover art for Nevermind lyrics by Taylor Swift

Look at you Look at me Look at who We could be

  • She thinking in her mind about how this boy could be the one*

I wanna know Who you are What you want From the start

  • She wants to know everything about him*

And everytime I look at you I can hardly say a thing my head starts to spin And it hits me then I love you

  • Every time she looks at him everything seems to fall into place*

And everytime you look at me I could go crazy but I don't say it but I won't Cause I'd rather be alone Than lose you

  • She wants to say that she is in love with him, but doesn't want to get hurt*

And all I really wanna do is be next to you But I'm too tired to fight And I could tell you now But baby, nevermind

  • In this part by the way she says "I'm too tired to fight" to me it says her head is saying tell him, but her heart is too scared to know the answer. She eventually doesn't say anything*

All the time Everyday There's nothing I can do baby To make it go away

  • Her love is so strong she can't let it go*

So look at you And look at me Now think of who We could be

  • She thinks they could be something special*

All I really wanna say is I need you babe But how could you understand What happens if you turn away And everything turns blue and grey And I just wish I told you, nevermind

  • She is thinking about what would happen if she tells him she is in love with him and he rejects her*

And I could tell you now But baby nevermind

Yeah Oh yeah

I could tell you now but nevermind

Yeah Oh yeah yeah

And I could tell you now but nevermind

  • This song is so great and it so relatable to a lot of people*
Song Meaning
Cover art for Nevermind lyrics by Taylor Swift

This song is about a girl who's in love with a boy and she wants to tell him but she's afraid to. Maybe he just got in a relationship so she's saying "never mind", because she sees no use in continuing what she was going to say. I imagine she's at school and about to admit her feelings to a boy when a girl comes up and they start hanging all over each other, and when she leaves he asks her what she was going to say and she just says never mind. She would rather not be with him as boyfriend/girlfriend than lost him as a friend. Or maybe she DID tell him, and now she's really regretting it because he doesn't feel the same about her and she wishes she wouldn't have told him so she could at least pretend that he had the same feelings for her.
