Taylor Alison Swift (born December 13, 1989) is an American singer-songwriter. Raised in Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, she moved to Nashville, Tennessee, at the age of 14 to pursue a career in country music. She signed with the independent label Big Machine Records and became the youngest songwriter ever signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house. The release of Swift's eponymous debut album in 2006 marked the start of her career as a country music singer. Her third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Hot Country Songs chart.
Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008. Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", Fearless became the best-selling album of 2009 in the United States. The album won four Grammy Awards, making Swift the youngest ever Album of the Year winner. Swift's third and fourth albums, 2010's Speak Now and 2012's Red, both sold more than one million copies within the first week of their U.S release. Speak Now's "Mean" won two Grammy Awards, while Red's singles "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" and "I Knew You Were Trouble" were successful worldwide. Swift's fifth album, the pop-focused 1989, was released in 2014 and sold more copies in its opening week than any album in the previous 12 years, making Swift the first and only act to have three albums sell more than one million copies in the opening release week. Its singles "Shake It Off", "Blank Space", and "Bad Blood" reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100. The album would go on to win three awards at the 2016 Grammys including Album of the Year making Swift the first and thus far only female artist to receive the award twice.
I should have known there'd be danger
When I saw your face in the crowd
Now I'm trying to work past my anger
I should know better by now
I used to believe in the love songs
That took me so long to write down
Every word you say takes my breath away
But I should know better by now
Chorus:
I know your sorrow
But everybody's tasted pain
I've known your sorrow
Since God makes the rain
I see tomorrow
When everybody tries again
I see tomorrow
When God makes the rain 2x
I used to believe in the spirits
That turned all your words into sound
But I was your walk on the wild side
I should know better by now
If you see me looking for something
Or someone who'll never be found
When I look your way
Turn your eyes astray
'Cause I should know better by now
Chorus
I used to hold my fury
Keep it bottled tight
And wrestle with the consequences
Each and every night
But if I put my faith in someone who was only trying to bring me down
I wouldn't stand, where I am standing now
I should have known there'd be danger
When I saw your face in the crowd
Every word you say takes my breath away
But I should know better by now
Chorus.
God makes the rain -repeated
