[Long Live]

It's astonishing how accurate Taylor Swift's songs can describe the present or foretell the future. This particular one speaks to me:

I said remember this moment
In the back of my mind
The time we stood with our shaking hands
The crowds in stands went wild
We were the kings and the queens
And they read of names
The night you danced like you knew
Our lives would never be the same
You held your head like a hero
On a history book page
It was the end of a decade
But the start of an age

Long live.  The walls we crashed through
How the kindom lights shine just for me and you
I was screamin' long live
All the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
One day, we will be remembered.

I said remember this feelin' 
I pass the pictures around
Of all the years that we stood there on the side-lines wishin' for right now 
We are the kings and the queens
You traded your baseball cap for a crown
When they gave us our trophies
And we held them up for our town
And the cynics were outraged
Screamin' "this is absurd!"
Cause for a moment
A band of theifs in ripped up jeans
Got to rule the world

Long live.  The walls we crashed through
How the kindom lights shine just for me and you
I was screamin' long live
All the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid

Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
I was screamin' long live
The look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders
One day, we will be remembered

Hold on, to spinnin' around
Confetti, falls to the ground
May these memories break our fall

*Will you take a moment
Promise me this
That you'll stand by me forever
But if God forbid fate should step in
And force us into a good by
If you have children someday
When they point to the pictures
Please tell them my name*

Tell them how the crowds went wild
Tell them how I hope they shine

Long live the walls we crashed through
I had the time of my life with you

Long long live.  The walls we crashed through
How the kindom lights shine just for me and you
I was screamin' long live
All the magic we made
And bring on all the pretenders
I'm not afraid

Singin' Long live all the mountains we moved
I had the time of my life fighting dragons with you
and long long live
The look on your face
And bring on all the pretenders

One day, we will be remembered.          -Taylor Swift
