Taylor Swift – 22 lyrics
It feels like a perfect night
To dress up like hipsters
And make fun of our exes
It feels like a perfect night
For breakfast at midnight
To fall in love with strangers
Ah,ah,ah,ah
Yeah, we're happy, free, confused and lonely at the same time
It’s miserable and magical, oh yeah
Tonight’s the night when we forget about the deadlines, it's time

I don't know about you
But i’m feeling 22
Everything will be alright if
You keep me next to you
You don't know about me
But i’ll bet you want to
Everything will be alright if
We just keep dancing like we're... 22, 22

It seems like one of those nights
This place is too crowded
Too many cool kids
ah,ah,ah,ah
It seems like one of those nights
We ditch the whole scene
And end up dreaming instead of sleeping, yeah...
We're happy, free, confused and lonely in the best way
It’s miserable and magical, oh yeah
Tonight’s the night when we forget about the heartbreaks, it's time

I don't know about you
But i’m feeling 22
Everything will be alright if
You keep me next to you
You don't know about me
But i’ll bet you want to
Everything will be alright if
We just keep dancing like we're... 22, 22

I don’t know about you
22, 22

It feels like one of those nights
We ditch the whole scene
It feels like one of those nights
We won't be sleeping
It feels like one of those nights
You look like bad news
I gotta have you
I gotta have you

I don't know about you
But i’m feeling 22
Everything will be alright if
You keep me next to you
You don't know about me
But i’ll bet you want to
Everything will be alright if
We just keep dancing like we're... 22, 22

22, 22

It feels like one of those nights
We ditch the whole scene
It feels like one of those nights
We won't be sleeping
It feels like one of those nights
You look like bad news
I gotta have you
I gotta have you

    22 is about being in your twenties. Hanging out with your friends, because you're all single and being free, happy and confused without having a guy. Its about having fun with your friends. Its about doing stupid things with them. Going to parties and flirting with guys, finding that one guy you gotta have. You're making fun of ex's and staying up all night. Ignoring the cool kids, ditching the cool kid parties for your own. Making fun of the haters. Doing crazy thing with them, like jumping on guy's backs as their riding bikes. Pretending to be cool even through you're not. Its mainly about having fun with your friends.

    She is awesome like she doesn't care what people say about her cause they know its not true and even if it is she will stand up for herself and tell them to just back off. I think it's cute to be nerdy and chic at the same time. Go Taylor! You go girl.

    She is saying how much fun being 22 is and she just wishes to go back to that age. Taylor swift is saying that being 22 for her was about being with all her girl friends and just expressing herself and well not changing herself for anyone. She finally has this amazing group of girlfriends ans they can tell each other everything and not keep any secrets away from each other. And that they all have each other. They are together all the time. This song was dedicated to two of her great friends so it is to show them how much fun they all had with each other and that this is an amazing time in life for her. One of these people that she wrote the song to was her best friend Selena Gomez. It is about letting loose and just having fun and you don't have to be so strict all of the time.
