Cornelia Street Lyrics

We were in the backseat
Drunk on something stronger than the drinks in the bar
I ran to a place on Cornelia Street
I sit casually in the car

We were a fresh page on the desk
Filling in the blanks as we go
As if the street lights pointed in an arrow head
Leading us home

I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
That's the kinda heartbreak time could never mend
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name
And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

Windows swung right open, autumn air
Jacket 'round my shoulders is yours
We bless the rains on Cornelia Street
Memorize the creaks in the floor

Back when we were card sharks, playing games
I thought you were leading me on
I packed my bags, left Cornelia Street
Before you even knew I was gone

But then you called, showed your hand
I turned around before I hit the tunnel
Sat on the roof, you and I

I hope I never lose you, hope it never ends
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
That's the kinda heartbreak time could never mend
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name
And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

You hold my hand on the street
Walk me back to that apartment
Years ago, we were just inside
Barefoot in the kitchen
Sacred new beginnings
That became my religion, listen

I hope I never lose you
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
Oh, never again
And baby, I get mystified by how this city screams your name
And baby, I'm so terrified of if you ever walk away
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again

I don't wanna lose you (Hope it never ends)
I'd never walk Cornelia Street again
I don't wanna lose you (Yeah)

I ran to a place on Cornelia Street
I sit casually in the car

Cover art for Cornelia Street lyrics by Taylor Swift

This song is actually about Joe Alwyn. They met on Cornelia Street and Taylor is singing how she’ll feel if Joe ever leaves her. She is saying that if they ever break up, she would never walk Cornelia Street again because it holds too many memories for her and “time could never mend” her heartbreak. This song is only about a supposed scenario, NO they didn’t break up.

Wondering if this is about Tom Hiddleston. But then we don't know if she was in love with him.

My Opinion

@BlankSpace89 No it’s about Joe Alwyn
