Official Lyrics:

I’m five years old it’s getting cold I’ve got my big coat on
I hear your laugh and look up smiling at you I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch and the tractor rides look now the sky is gold
I hug your legs and fall asleep on the way home

I don’t know why all the trees change in the fall
But I know you’re not scared of anything at all
Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away
But I know I had the best day with you today

I’m thirteen now and don’t know how my friends could be so mean
I come home crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys
And we drive and drive until we found a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop till I’ve forgotten all their names

I don’t know who I’m gonna talk to now at school
But I know I’m laughing on the car ride home with you
Don’t know how long it’s gonna take to feel ok
But I know I had the best day with you today

I have an excellent father
His strength is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother
Inside and out he’s better than I am

I grew up in a pretty house and I had space to run
And I had the best days with you

There is a video I found from back when I was three
You set up a paint set in the kitchen and you’re talking to me
It’s the age of princesses and pirate ships and the seven dwarfs
Daddy’s smart and you’re the prettiest lady in the whole wide world

Now I know why all the trees change in the fall
I know you were on my side even when I was wrong
And I love you for giving me your eyes
For staying back and watching me shine and I didn't know if you knew
So I’m taking this chance to say that I had the best day with you today

    My talent is being able to cry to any song Taylor writes for her mum
  • @15jeam
    "You're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world."

    “Staying back and watching me shine” Brings a tear to my eye every time 🥹
  • You can tell Taylor's dad was absolutely in love with her mum by all the home videos where he centers around her face so often. So sweet to see this.
  • @riossloth
    I don’t know how she made it through this entire song without crying because I couldn’t even make it past the first note
  • I think a hug from Taylor's mom would solve most of my problems at this point
  • Everyone says that she write songs on her exes when literally everyone in the industry does it but on the other hand, no one applauses her for writing a song on her mother. The society we live in. ToT
  • @yanieverse_
    This song hits different when you’re in adulting phase wanting to give the best life to your parents, trying to reach your goals while watching them getting old :(((
  • @irynpatience
    I can't control my tears when she said I have an excellent father, his strength is making me stronger. I miss my dad
  • @artangel23
    This is what happens when you support and nurture your child. They become their best selves 💖
  • @alf5155
    This is so sweet. Her parents raised her well and we can see it.
  • My 27 year old daughter just sent this to me today and I’m crying my eyes out ❤
  • The way she is so grateful and content with her childhood, without being braggy about it.
  • @karinalemos1881
    The way she writes about her mom... I imagine the songs she’ll write if she becomes a mom herself
  • @marrrcccc_
    HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL STRONG AND LOVING MOTHER OUT THERE!! ❤ WE LOVE YOU
  • @meggiemon1731
    I'm here to heal my inner child who lacks the love of her parents. Imagining Taylor's amazing parents makes me imagine my inner child having one.
  • @claraz7699
    It makes me cry so hard at “you’re the prettiest lady in the whole wide world”
  • Am i the only one who crying over this one? The fact that she's so honest of making musics you can see it in these
  • @JESSICAJFRS
    Jesus Christ, I can't listen to this song without crying because I first heard it in high school when I was suffering from bullying really bad, and it reminds me of my parents trying their hardest to cheer me. Such a masterpiece, Taylor has a way to reach people in such a meaningful way. I love this.
  • @Pinkvr747
    I’m almost 40 years old and this song still makes me bawl my eyes out! It hits so many sweet spots in my heart, except damn near everything pertains to my dad.
