They simply grew apart and plan to remain friends.
But unlike Swifts other breakups, this one feels a little more gut-wrenching.
Alwyn also inspired Lavender Haze on Swifts recent studio albumMidnights.

And so this song is sort of about the act of ignoring that stuff to protect the real stuff.
I hope you guys like it.
They kept their romance between just themselves.
They protected the real stuff and loved with deep intention and commitment.
And yet, they still didnt work.
But maybe thats okay.
Because maybe love isnt about how long it lasts or if it hasforever potential.
Just because something ends, that doesnt mean it didnt matter or doesnt matter.
Love doesnt always need to fall apart spectacularly in order for it end either.
Sometimes, it simply needs to run its course.
But not all hope is lost.
Because just as Swift once said, love is like daylight.It always arrives again.
