Taylor Swift - We Were Happy (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault)

Fearless: We snuck into the circus
Folklore: They called off the circus

I actually cried when I heard this because I would listen to the demo version of this song on repeat when I was a teenager wishing she had released a studio version. This has literally been a dream come true for me.

Fun fact: Whenever a song has Happy, Happily, Happier, or Happiness in the title its not going to be happy.

let’s appreciate taylor releasing it on youtube for those who don’t have the album or the money to get it AND providing us with lyric videos 💜

"But they don't give me choices and that's what these tears are for." - Taylor Swift ( We Were Happy )

We can finally call ourselves a Swifties (Taylor Swift Version).

FUN FACT: Swift said that at 14 she wrote a novel titled "A Girl Named Girl" and her parents still have a copy of it.

i confusingly started singing with her in the middle of the song and then i realized that this is one of the unreleased bops i used to jam to 7 years ago with terrible quality on youtube 😭 now all the feelings have hit me

I love how these From The Vault songs sounds like friends we’ve never met, but feel like we’ve known all our lives. They’re like a mosaic of her songs, with new pieces we get to meet-

She literally wrote this as a young teen and it sounds like it could be on evermore.

“Oh I hate those voices
Telling me I’m not in love anymore
But they don’t give me choices
And that’s what these tears are for
Cause we were happy”
- Taylor
*damn, that’s geniussongwriting101*

I love how hauntingly sad this song is from the bridge to the end of the song.

"I will never change, but I'll never stay the same either."
- Taylor Swift

THIS IS THE “HAPPINESS” OF THIS ALBUM

"You threw your arms around my neck back when I deserved it"
I have to thank Taylor for keeping this from us for thirteen years 'cause I don't know if I would survive.

This is literally this album's coney island, except this gets recognition.

THERE'S NOTHING MORE EXCITING THAN BINGE-LISTENING TO A WHOLE TAYLOR'S ALBUM THE SECOND AFTER IT DROPS !

She's officially the owner of HER OWN music. Nothing can defeat this woman, not even a bunch of thiefs. We're so proud of you. The Queen of Music.

She was not playing when she said,
“And I come back stronger than a 90s trend”
🔒💛🧡👸🏼🙋🏼‍♀️

"they don't give you choices and that's what these tears are for"..every child experiencing academic pressure could resonate 🤧
Love u Taylor 💟

This song is about trying to remind this person you two enjoyed each other's company's while breaking up with them because there's no love anymore.

“Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me”
We love you Taylor Swift.

Is it just me or all the Taylor songs are literally about our lives... Feels like my entire life in all her songs 😍🥺🥺😭

She was just a teen when she wrote this song shows us how talented our Queen is from the beginning itself... N all New Taylor's version hits different n deep ❤️❤️

YES YES SWFITIES RISE!

FACT: TAYLOR'S VOICE DIDN'T CHANGE. IT BECAME MORE PROFOUND AND DEEP, LIKE HOW SHE EVOLVED FROM ALL THE BATTLES SHE FOUGHT. WE WERE THERE. WE WERE HAPPY. WE ARE HAPPY.

Betty singing to James:
We used to walk along the street When the porch lights were shining bright Before I had somewhere to be Back when we had all night and we were happy ;(

for some reason, I keep coming back to this song...so beautiful yet so sad. this might be one of my favorite songs from her.

My dog and I used to listed to Fearless when it came out, he passed away last week, and all the songs, even this one, that he never got to hear, still reminds me of him.

*friend: so how many Taylor Swift songs did you stream today?*
*me: YES.*

I need an entire Taylor Swift and Keith Urban duets album.

The fact that she wrote this song as a teenager just goes to show how extraordinarily talented Taylor is

anyone else think of happiness from evermore?❤️

TAYLOR doesn't realize This, but She is making everyone's day better.

her vocal harmony with Keith Urban is perfectly on point

Guys for anyone who’s confused about the twerking it’s bc a week or so ago Taylor said in this house we cry and dance at the same time so Swifties took the dancing to mean twerking and cry to mean sad so it sorta blew up with sad twerking and things like that for wtv the video is that the comment is on
Proud explanation twerking

Can we agree that we swifties is the luckiest fandom in this casually cruel dimension

i’m literally in tears i love how folklore has been inside her all these years and we can go back and see it in this song and a lot of others

when reality hits you that the song is all about the past and you can't control your mind and the memories just keeps rushing like the cold wave of the ocean...

The fact that the background vocals are by Keith Urban is just *chef’s kiss*

Taylor... Has a whole different genre, infact her music is a genre itself....
Proving that she comes back stronger than a 90's trend

she definitely had hidden such precious gems for so long in her vault. sooooo glad they're out now!

Her voice SHINES in songs like this

"You held my hand and walked me home, I don't know"
~ Avril Lavigne
"We used to walk along the streets, when the porch lights were shining bright"
~ Taylor Swift
.
.
same feeling

My 12 year old self saying, “that’s my mom right there” 🤧💛 SHOUT OUT TO EVERYONE WHO’S CHILDHOOD WAS TAYLOR’S MUSIC, WE ARE HER KIDS TOO 💛💛💛

The old Taylor can't come to the phone right now. Why? Oh, that's because she comes back stronger than a 90s trend!!!

This is the best song from the vault for Fearless.

I remember finding a few of these, including this one, like 8 years ago as unrealsed songs. Now they are well recorded and easy to find 😭😭 its too much I can't handle it

I often listened to Taylor's songs when something went wrong in my life, and it gave me strength. She's a perfect songwriter and singer. I feel lucky to be living at the same time as her. We love you Taylor, always stay with us.

Taylor Swift is a complete artist, reasons: •Sings well
• Great actress
•Too pretty
• Know how to compose
•Charismatic
• Intelligent

She and Michael J are the only ones who impacted the music industry.

When the first day I attend to University, one girl asked me "Who is you favoriate singer", "Taylor Swift, do you know that singer?" "Wow, Cool! Me Too".
12 Years have passed, since last year, that girl become my wife.

This is such a ✨golden hour✨ song

“Who clicked on the video and came straight to comments?😂”
(OMG Taylor Swift thanks for commenting on my new video)❤

I'm convinced that Taylor doesn't actually sleep. Getting all these songs from her vault it's like getting transported back to 2008 ❤️

no one could touch the way we laughed in the dark.

I'm currently 34 and I've been lodtrning to Taylor since I was 20. I cannot believe how much time has gone by & how much she shaped my 20's-early 30's. 💜💛 Simply magical. She sang the soundtrack of my life. So many memories!

Fearless came back stronger than a 90’s trend

*Taylor doesn’t realize that she makes literally everyone’s day better when she posts 🔥 She’s a big influence on my music, I hope I make a song with her one day 🙏🏿🌎*

Unpopular opinion: One of the Best song written by Taylor Swift 🔥💗

i will never accept we were happy slander this is STUNNING. we were happy get behind me i'll protect you. 💓

This sounds like it could be on folklore I’m OBSESSED

Me sitting in my room wearing my cardigan, wonderstruck perfume, Taylor Swift era hoodie listing to all of these songs balling my eyes out

One of the those beautiful underrated songs of Swift 💜

This lady is making thousands of lives better every day without knowing it...

She doesn't even understand how happy this makes me

someone give this woman a nobel peace prize for getting us through quarantine

'Cause we all were once happy'~

This is how I calm myself, I listen to Taylor's songs and just like magic, I would soon feel better.

-You were gonna marry me
Man that hits so hard, this song is a masterpiece!

the fact that other fandoms call their idols "boyfriend" or for kpop people go "oppa" but here we're literallyyyyyyy having a "mother - child" relationship with Taylor. I cannot - THE BEST - 😩😭

We are now called *Swifties (From The Vault)* 😆

1 year of "Fearless Album Taylor's Version"

I was listening to Taylor at the beginning of my relationship in the year 2007. She had just risen to fame the year before. Anyways, in 2007, my husband and I were both 19 yrs old, now fast forward to today and we are now 32 (with an adventurous, smart, outgoing son who is a bright ray of sunshine 🌞) Her music has grown with me and helped me through very tough times, and has also made me dance/feel so happy. Yet this song here, makes me cry. This year has been a rollercoaster, with my health and my marriage. I don’t know what will happen with my marriage, but I wish we could be as happy today, as we used to be back “when we were happy”. 💔 This song really affects me deeply.

Okay so now i know that Taylor Swift's new hobby is to surprised all Swifties around the world

Who needs a therapist when fearless is now officially Taylor's Version 💛💛

fun fact: before this was on fearless tv, it was an unreleased song

2:42 it's very difficult to listen to this part since I start tearing up when I hear this part as if I get heartbroken 😭

She really did come back stronger than a 90's trend

True fact: Everyone who listen to This song is getting healed

Listening to her love songs always makes me remember my teenage love life that I've never had.

this is the most beautiful song on fearless but no one acknowledge it😌

The bridge hits different!! Seriously Taylor defeats all civil engineers and build the best bridges

True fact: we all think that we can survive rerecordings but we actually can't, *sobs* I love this AHHHHHHHHHH

This song makes me mourn the end of a relationship I never even had.

When Taylor's songs are your reality. I feel it so deeply. She is amazing artist.

She could've easily added this to Folklore or Evermore but I ain't complaining.

"Happiness" from evermore was "we were happy" before "we were happy"
Damn that's a lot of Ws

This was my favorite unreleased Taylor Swift song back then... and now here it is. ♡

She is the only one who can make me cry for something I've never had😭😭
Legend

Taylor is the greatest. She inspired every song I ever made

I think I will never been in need of any more medicine as Taylor is here publishing one song after the other after the other after the other........

I started listening to Taylor in college.. I can still remember blasting her first album in my car after my first freshman year exam. ❤🧡
Now I'm 33 and still doing the same thing.

criminally underrated

* twerking in the vault *

them: "what's the matter?"
me:
"It's just a legend back"

this sounds like a grown up person with melancholy talking about his first love on the suburbs..

SHE WROTE THIS AT 14 HOLY COW
