Taylor Swift does not hold back her breakup anger in "Forever & Always (Taylor's Version)." The song is clear and to the point: It questions a guy who told her that he loved her and then seemingly changed his mind out of the blue. "You looked me in the eye and told me you loved me / Were you just kidding?" she asks in the first verse of the song, per Genius. "Baby, what happened? Please tell me / 'Cause one second it was perfect / Now you're halfway out the door," she continues.

The chorus focuses on the distress Swift feels as she contemplates the impending doom of the relationship, before continuing to belt out her sorrows. "Oh, and it rains in your bedroom / Everything is wrong / It rains when you're here and it rains when you're gone / 'Cause I was there when you said forever and always," she croons.

Swift confirmed that the original "Forever & Always" is about Joe Jonas in an appearance on The Ellen Degeneres Show, per PopSugar. The song was written and recorded last minute, and the pair broke up a month before the song was released. While the relationship was short-lived, the songs about it last forever.
