KEY POINTS

  • Taylor Swift confirmed that "Lavender Haze" from her new album was inspired by her relationship with Joe Alwyn
  • "Snow on the Beach" seemed to hint at the early days of the couple's romance
  • "Midnights" is out now on Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube

Taylor Swift has kept her relationship with longtime beau Joe Alwyn lowkey for the past six years, but she's now ready to give fans a glimpse into their love story and life together.

Several songs from the 32-year-old Grammy winner's new album, "Midnights," are inspired or partly inspired by her long-term relationship with the 31-year-old English actor.

Here are the tracks from the "All Too Well" singer's 10th studio album that discuss her relationship with her boyfriend, according to People.

1. "Lavender Haze"

In "Lavender Haze," the opening track of "Midnights," Swift addressed the engagement rumors involving her and Alwyn that have been making rounds on social media over the last several years.

"I'm damned if I do give a damn what people say/ The 1950s s— they want from me/ I just wanna stay in that lavender haze," Swift sings in the track, according to People. "All they keep asking me is if I'm gonna be your bride/ The only kinda girl they see is a one night or a wife."

Swift confirmed via Instagram earlier this month that the song is indeed about her relationship with Alwyn.

"I guess, theoretically, when you're in the 'Lavender Haze,' you'll do anything to stay there and not let people bring you down off of that cloud," she explained of the phrase, adding that in the era of social media, "if the world finds out you're in love with somebody, they're going to weigh in on it."

As a couple, "we've had to dodge weird rumors, tabloid stuff, and we just ignore it," Swift shared. "And so this song is sort of about the act of ignoring that stuff to protect the real stuff."

2. "Snow on the Beach" ft. Lana Del Rey

Swift described her collaboration with singer-songwriter Lana Del Rey, titled "Snow on the Beach," as a song about "falling in love with someone, at the same as they're falling in love with you," when she revealed details about the track on social media on Oct. 12.

"Snow on the Beach" explored Swift's "emotional state" during the early days of her romance with Alwyn, including her questioning whether or not the relationship would last.

"Now I'm all for you like Janet/ Can this be a real thing/ Can it?" she sings, referencing Janet Jackson's 2001 hit "All for You."

"You know how scared I am of elevators/ Never trust it if it rises fast/ It can't last," she also sings in the track, adding in the chorus: "I thought the plane was going down/ How'd you turn it right around?"

3. "Sweet Nothing"

Swift collaborated with several songwriters for her 10th studio album, including her boyfriend. Alwyn also co-wrote tracks from her "Folklore" and "Evermore" albums under the pseudonym "William Bowery."

"Sweet Nothing" is a new ballad the couple wrote together about being safe in each other's arms.

"They said the end is coming/ Everyone's up to something/ I find myself running home to your sweet nothings," sings Swift.

"I spy with my little tired eye/ Tiny as a firefly a pebble that we picked up last July/ Down deep inside your pocket we almost forgot it/ Does it ever miss Wicklow sometimes?" she also sings, seemingly referencing the time she visited Alwyn in Belfast, Northern Ireland, while he was filming "Conversations with Friends" last year.

4. "Mastermind"

"Mastermind" is the final track of the "Midnights" album, and it closes with the revelation that Swift made the first move in the relationship and that her lover fully embraced it.

"So I told you none of it was accidental and the first night that you saw me nothing was gonna stop me/ I laid the groundwork and then saw a wide smirk on your face/ You knew the entire time," she sings on the album's last song.

"Midnights" is now available on the music streaming platforms Spotify, Apple Music and YouTube.
