Midnight Rain Lyrics Taylor Swift - Taylor Swift

My town was a wasteland
Full of cages, full of fences
Pageant queens and big pretenders
But for some, it was paradise
My boy was a montage
A slow-motion, love potion
Jumping off things in the ocean
I broke his heart 'cause he was nice
He was sunshine, I was midnight rain

He wanted it comfortable
I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride
I was making my own name
Chasing that fame
He stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight
Midnight rain

A town that is 'nothing' if it ain't
The place where you made your name
But for me, it was waiting, waiting
Sunset heart, you didn't want my love
You were just a midwest boy
With your California dreams
How can you say that you're not changed?
All that I'm saying, he was sunshine, I was midnight rain

He wanted it comfortable
I wanted that pain
He wanted a bride
I was making my own name
Chasing that fame
He stayed the same
All of me changed like midnight
Midnight rain

I guess sometimes we all get
Just what we wanted, just what we wanted
And he never thinks of me
Except when I'm on TV
I guess sometimes we all get
Some kind of haunted, some kind of haunted
And I never think of him
Except on midnights like this
Midnights like this
