if ‘Betty’ by Taylor Swift was written from Betty’s perspective by Hannah Grae Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Jamie, I won't make assumptions
But I think that you still love me
And maybe that's okay
Jamie, one time I was crying in my bedroom
Writing songs I thought I'd sing to you one day
[Pre-Chorus]
I heard the rumors from Inez
I can't believe a word she says most times
This time it was true
The worst thing that I ever did
Was fall in love with you
[Chorus]
And now I'm throwing stupid parties
Trying to get people to like me
Getting drunk with my fake friends
I have enough, run to the garden
In the garden, I imagine my worst nightmares
That eventually came true
I'm only 17, I don't know anything
But I know I miss you
[Verse 2]
Jamie, I know where it all went wrong
Your favorite song was played by her
Her eyes so wide and blue
Her long dark hair in the crowds
Her lust is loud, you know that
The temptation's too much for you
[Pre-Chorus]
I heard the rumors from Inez
I can't believe a word she says most times
This time it was true
The worst part of this whole damn thing
Was that I didn't hear it from you
[Chorus]
And now I'm throwing stupid parties
Trying to get people to like me
Getting drunk with my fake friends
I have enough, run to the garden
In the garden, I imagine my worst nightmares
That eventually came true
I'm only 17, I don't know anything
But I know I miss you
[Bridge]
I was walking home on broken cobblestones
Just thinking of you in your Levi's
Drunk and dancing underneath the streetlight
And I thought, am I crazy?
Is my heart just too lazy?
And I thought even maybe
I don't deserve this kind of love
[Verse 3]
Jamie, you're here on my doorstep
But I've cried this out for weeks now
And it's finally sinking in
You made me feel like I was invisible
Now you see me, is this some kinda game
That you are tryna win?
The only thing I wanna do
Is just get over you
[Chorus]
But you showed up at my party
Yeah, you showed up at my party
Yeah, you showed up at my party
And your eyes, yeah the deceive me
And I resist a single thing
I wish I could stay angry
If you kissed me, will it be just like I dreamed it?
Will it patch my broken wings
I'm only 17, I don't know anything
I don't even know you
[Outro]
Standing in your Levi's, trying to conceal the lies
Stopped at a streetlight
You know I miss you
Jamie, I won't make assumptions
But I think that you still love me
And maybe that's okay
Jamie, one time I was crying in my bedroom
Writing songs I thought I'd sing to you one day
[Pre-Chorus]
I heard the rumors from Inez
I can't believe a word she says most times
This time it was true
The worst thing that I ever did
Was fall in love with you
[Chorus]
And now I'm throwing stupid parties
Trying to get people to like me
Getting drunk with my fake friends
I have enough, run to the garden
In the garden, I imagine my worst nightmares
That eventually came true
I'm only 17, I don't know anything
But I know I miss you
[Verse 2]
