Album Red (Taylor's Version) ini mencakup 30 lagu , dan beberapa di antaranya menampilkan kolaborasi dengan musisi ternama, seperti Ed Sheeran. Selain menghadirkan versi baru dari lagu-lagu ikonik, album ini juga memberi kesempatan bagi para penggemar untuk mendengar sisi baru dari karya Taylor Swift.
Makna Lagu Red Taylor Swift
Menyadur laman American Songwriter, Taylor Swift memang dikenal dengan lagu-lagu bertema putus cinta, namun lirik lagu "Red" menghadirkan jenis kesedihan yang berbeda. Lagu ini tidak menceritakan tentang hubungan putus nyambung seperti dalam lagu “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”.

Sebaliknya, “Red” menggambarkan tentang rasa penyesalan karena kehilangan hubungan yang hampir ideal, namun pada akhirnya tetap tidak bisa dipertahankan. Taylor menggunakan warna merah sebagai simbol untuk menggambarkan cinta yang penuh gairah dan emosi yang mendalam.
Dalam liriknya, Taylor menyebut cinta itu "merah" karena baginya cinta itu kuat dan penuh warna, namun juga menyakitkan di saat yang bersamaan. Lagu ini menggambarkan perasaan campur aduk dalam hubungan yang penuh lika-liku, serta betapa sulitnya untuk melupakan seseorang yang pernah sangat berarti.

Loving him is like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street

Faster than the wind, passionate as sin, ending so suddenly
Loving him is like trying to change your mind
Once you're already flying through the free fall
Like the colors in autumn, so bright, just before they lose it all
Losing him was blue, like I'd never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know
Somebody you never met
But loving him was red
Loving him was red
Touching him was like realizing all you ever wanted
Was right there in front of you
Memorizing him was as easy as knowing all the words
To your old favorite song
Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword

And realizing there's no right answer
Regretting him was like wishing you never found out
That love could be that strong
Losing him was blue, like I'd never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone
Forgetting him was like trying to know
Somebody you never met
But loving him was red
Oh, red
Burning red
Remembering him comes in flashbacks and echoes
Tell myself it's time now gotta let go
But moving on from him is impossible
When I still see it all in my head
In burning red
Burning, it was red
Oh, losing him was blue, like I'd never known
Missing him was dark gray, all alone

Forgetting him was like trying to know
Somebody you never met
'Cause loving him was red
Yeah, yeah, red
Burning red
And that's why he's spinning 'round in my head
Comes back to me, burning red
Yeah, yeah
His love was like driving a new Maserati down a dead end street
