  • One look, dark room
    Meant just for you
    Time moved too fast
    You play it back
    Buttons on a coat
    Light-hearted joke
    No proof, not much
    But you saw enough
    Small talk, he drives
    Coffee at midnight
    The light reflects
    The chain on your neck
    He says, "Look up"
    And your shoulders brush
    No proof, one touch
    But you felt enough

    You can hear it in the silence, silence, you
    You can feel it on the way home, way home, you
    You can see it with the lights out, lights out
    You are in love, true love
    You are in love

    Morning, his place
    Burnt toast, Sunday
    You keep his shirt
    He keeps his word
    And for once, you let go
    Of your fears and your ghosts
    One step, not much
    But it said enough
    You kiss on sidewalks
    You fight and you talk
    One night he wakes
    Strange look on his face
    Pauses, then says
    You're my best friend
    And you knew what it was
    He is in love

    You can hear it in the silence, silence, you
    You can feel it on the way home, way home, you
    You can see it with the lights out, lights out
    You are in love, true love, you are in love

    And so it goes
    You two are dancing in a snow globe, 'round and 'round
    And he keeps the picture of you in his office downtown
    And you understand now why they lost their minds and fought the wars
    And why I've spent my whole life tryin' to put it into words

    'Cause you can hear in the silence
    You can feel it on the way home
    You can see it with the lights out
    You are in love, true love
    You are in love

    You can hear it in the silence, silence, you
    You can feel it on the way home, way home, you
    You can see it with the lights out, lights out
    You are in love, true love
    You are in love
    You can hear it in the silence, silence, you
    You can feel it on the way home, way home, you
    You can see it with the lights out, lights out
    You are in love, true love
    You are in love Writer/s: Jack Michael Antonoff, Taylor Swift
