The song itself is a statement on the purity of young love."The song is about a romance and why young love is often fixed so permanently within our memories," Taylor said in a livestream announcing the new release on Thursday.
Like something out of"The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe," Taylor's piano and its bench proved the doorways to take her to these magical other realms. One was filled with beautiful greens and moss with a waterfall pouring from her grand piano. It was all peace and love and blissful joy. But when beckoned to take another step, Taylor found herself adrift in turmoil, amid tumultuous waves in the middle of an endless sea with only her piano to keep her afloat.
It evoked the extremes of emotions that young people can experience, and how strong those feelings can be at both ends of that spectrum in young love. It's a wild ride, at times beautiful and at other times terrifying.
