Lyrics

I would stand out in the rain
or stop you from getting on that train
so I could say what I need to say

Some flowers I could by
or get a skywriter in the sky
I could do every last cliche

and that's why
You heard me knockin' on your door
late at night what I do that for
they told you I was some kinda player
that's not me Taylor

That's why I snuck out this late
slipped right past your parent's gate
risked it all to say hello
and tell you things you need to know

I would a fight a bear for you
explore an evil lair for you
I'd light a torch so we can see the way

Propose to you on the jumbotron
Get a white picket fence and bright green lawn
can it get any more cliche

and that's why
You heard me knockin' on your door
late at night what i do that for
they told you I was some kinda player
that's not me Taylor

That's why I snuck out this late
slipped right past your parent's gate
risked it all to say hello
and tell you things you need to know
