20 Memorable Taylor Swift Quotes From 'Folklore' Album Lyrics
Some of the best Taylor Swift's quotes come right from her song lyrics.
getty Taylor Swift has proven many times in her songwriting that she is capable of telling a story. No matter if it’s a personal love story or a fictional tale, Swift evokes many emotions through her relatable quotes and song lyrics.
With her 2020 release Folklore, Swift tells the story of a teen love triangle. She sprinkles in personal songs about her relationship with Jow Alwyn as well.
Overall the album has a serious and interesting tone different from her previous album Lover. Some fans have noted Folklore's deeper meaning and compare it to things that remind them of comfort.
Even though it feels like there aren’t any songs about self-love such as her first single off of Lover, “ME!”, she still has managed to sprinkle in encouraging words.
Here is a list of the most memorable Taylor Swift quotes from Folklore lyrics.
