(Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault) | Down the block there's an antique shop
And something in my head said stop, so I walked in
On the counter was a cardboard box
And the sign said, 'Photos twenty five cents each
Black and white, saw a thirties bride and school lovers laughing on the porch of their first house
The kinda love that you only find once in a lifetime
The kind you don't put down
And that's when I called you and it's so hard to explain, but in those photos I saw us instead
And somehow I know that you and I would've found each other
In another life, you still would've turned my head
Even if we'd met
[Chorus]
On a crowded street in 1944
And you were headed off to fight in the war
You still would've been mine
We would have been timeless
I would've read your love letters every single night
And prayed to God you'd be coming home all right
And you would've been fine
We would have been timeless
Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
So even in a different life, you still would've still been mine
We would've been timeless
[Verse 2]
I had to smile when it caught my eye
There was one of a teenage couple on the driveway
Holding hands on the way to a dance and the date on the back said 1958
Which brought me back to the first time I saw you
Time stood still like something in this old shop
I thought about it as I started looking 'round at these precious things that time forgot
That's when I came upon a book covered in cobwebs
Story of a romance torn apart by fate
Hundreds of years ago they fell in love like we did
And I'd die for you in the same way
If I first saw your face
[Chorus]
In the fifteen hundreds off in a foreign land
And I was forced to marry another man
You still would've been mine
We would have been timeless
I would have read your love letters every single night
And run away and left it all behind
You still would've been mine
We would've been timeless
Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
So even in a different life
You still would've been mine
We would've been timeless
[Bridge]
Time breaks down your mind and body
Don't you let it touch your soul
It was like an age old classic
The first time that you saw me
The story started when you said "hello"
In a crowded room a few short years ago
And sometimes there's no proof, you just know
You're always gonna be mine
We're gonna be...
I'm gonna love you when our hair is turning grey
We'll have a cardboard box of photos of the life we made
And you'll say, "Oh my, we really were timeless"
[Chrous]
We're gonna be timeless
Timeless
You still would've been mine
We would've been
Even if we'd met on a crowded street in 1944
You still would've been mine
We would've been
[Outro]
Down the block there's an antique shop
And something in my head said stop, so I walked in
Li jêr blokê dikanek kevnare heye
Û tiştek di serê min de got raweste, lewra ez diçûm
Li ser counter qutiyek karton bû
Û nîşana got, 'Wêneyên bîst û pênc sed
Reş û spî, dît ku bûk û hezkirên dibistanê li ser devê xaniyê xwe yê yekem dikenîn
Kinda evîna ku hûn tenê di temenê xwe de tenê bibînin
Ya ku hûn nexapînin
That's ew gava ku min gazî we kir û ez rave dikim ku rave bikim, lê di wan wêneyan de min li şûna me dît
Û hinekî ez dizanim ku hûn û ez ê hevdu dîtin
Di jiyanek din de, hûn hîn jî serê min zivirî
Heta ku em pê re hevdîtin bikin
[Qoro]
Li kolanek girseyî di sala 1944-an de
Û hûn ji bo şer di şer de derketin
Hûn hîn jî dê min bin
Em ê demsalî bûn
Ez ê her şev tîpên evîna we bixwînim
Û ji Xwedê re dua kir ku hûn ê rast werin malê
Û hûn ê baş bûn
Em ê demsalî bûn
Sedema ku ez bawer dikim ku em dixwazin vê yekê bibînin
Lewra di jiyanek cûda de jî, hûn hîn jî dê hîn jî min bûn
Em ê demsalî bûn
[Ayetek 2]
Dema ku çavê min kişand ez neçar mam
Li ser rêwîtiyê yek ji cotek xortan hebû
Destên xwe li ser riya dansê û tarîxa li ser pişta sala 1958 digotin
Ku min berê xwe da min ku min te dît
Dem di vê dikana kevin de mîna tiştek sekinî
Ez li ser wê difikirîm mîna ku min dest bi lêgerîna li van tiştên hêja kir ku wext ji bîr kir
Ew gava ku ez li ser pirtûkek ku li Cobwebs hatim girtin
Çîroka roman a ku ji hêla çarenûsê ve hatî çêkirin
Bi sedan sal berê ew ketin hezkirinê mîna me
Û ez ê bi heman awayî ji bo we bimirim
Ger min yekem rûyê te dît
[Qoro]
Di panzdehan de bi sedan li axa biyanî
Û ez neçar mam ku bi zilamek din re bizewicim
Hûn hîn jî dê min bin
Em ê demsalî bûn
Ez ê her şev tîpên evîna we bixwînim
Û bireve û ew gişt li paş xwe hişt
Hûn hîn jî dê min bin
Em ê demsalî bûn
Sedema ku ez bawer dikim ku em dixwazin vê yekê bibînin
Lewra di jiyanek cûda de jî
Hûn hîn jî dê min bin
Em ê demsalî bûn
[Pir]
Dem hiş û laşê we diqulipîne
Ma hûn nehêlin ku ew giyanê we bide
Ew mîna klasîkek kevn a temen bû
Cara yekem ku te min dît
Theîrok dest pê kir dema te got "Hello"
Li odeyek girseyî çend salên kurt
Sometimes carinan jî delîl tune, hûn tenê dizanin
Hûn her gav dê bibin ya min
Em ê bibin ...
Gava ku porê me zer dibe ez ê ji te hez bikim
Em ê qutiyek karton a wêneyên jiyana ku me çêkirine hene
Û hûn ê bêjin, "Oh min, em bi rastî jî demdirêj bûn"
[Chrous]
Em ê bê dem bimînin
Herdem
Hûn hîn jî dê min bin
Em ê bûn
Heya ku em ê di sala 1944-an de li kolanek girseyî hevdîtin bikin
Hûn hîn jî dê min bin
Em ê bûn
[جهر
