Lyrics of 'Timeless' by Taylor Swift

Down the block, there's an antique shop
And something in my head said: Stop, so I walked in
On the counter was a cardboard box
And the sign said: Photos, twenty-five cents each
Black and white, saw a thirties bride
And school lovers laughing on the porch of their first house
The kinda love that you only find once in a lifetime
The kind you don't put down

And that's when I called you and it's so hard to explain, but
In those photos, I saw us instead
And somehow I know that you and I would've found each other
In another life, you still would've turned my head

Even if we'd met on a crowded street in 1944
And you were headed off to fight in the war
You still would've been mine, we would have been timeless
I would've read your love letters every single night
And prayed to God you'd be coming home all right
And you would've been fine, we would have been timeless

'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
So, even in a different life
You still would've been mine, we would've been timeless

I had to smile when it caught my eye
There was one of a teenage couple in the driveway
Holding hands, on the way to a dance
And the date on the back said 1958
Which brought me back to the first time I saw you
Time stood still like something in this old shop
I thought about it as I started looking 'round
At these precious things that time forgot

That's when I came upon a book covered in cobwebs
Story of a romance torn apart by fate
Hundreds of years ago, they fell in love like we did
And I'd die for you in the same way

If I first saw your face in the fifteen hundreds, off in a foreign land
And I was forced to marry another man
You still would've been mine, we would have been timeless
I would've read your love letters every single night
And run away and left it all behind
You still would've been mine, we would've been timeless

'Cause I believe that we were supposed to find this
So, even in a different life
You still would've been mine, we would've been timeless

Time breaks down your mind and body
Don't you let it touch your soul
It was like an age-old classic
The first time that you saw me
The story started when you said: Hello

In a crowded room, a few short years ago
And sometimes there's no proof, you just know
You're always gonna be mine, we're gonna be
I'm gonna love you when our hair is turning grey
We'll have a cardboard box of photos of the life we've made
And you'll say: Oh my, we really were timeless

We're gonna be timeless, timeless
You still would've been mine, we would've been
Even if we'd met on a crowded street in 1944
You still would've been mine, we would've been

Down the block, there's an antique shop
And something in my head said: Stop, so I walked in
