A moonlit forest spins into position behind the folklore cabin. A stylized asymmetrical 8 framed structure with smoke drifting up from its chimney. As fans from the crowd cheer, Taylor climbs up the slanted roof of the cabin and settles down on its moss covered surface wearing an elegant diaphanous cream colored gown

I'm doing good I'm on some new shit
Been saying "yes" instead of "no"
I thought I saw you at the bus stop
I didn't though

I hit the ground running each night
I hit the Sunday matinee
You know the greatest films of all time were never made

She kicks up a leg

I guess you never know, never know
And if you wanted me, you really should've showed
And if you never bleed, you're never gonna grow
And it's all right now

She looks into the crowd

But we were something, don't you think so?
Roaring twenties tossing pennies in the pool
And if my wishes came true
It would've been you

In my defense, I have none
For never leaving well enough alone
But it would be been fun
If you would've been the one
Ooh

She lies back, resting her head on the rooftop

I have this dream, you're doing cool shit
Having adventures on your own
You meet some woman on the Internet and take her home

The audience screams and cheers

We never painted by the numbers, baby
But we were making it count
You know the greatest loves of all time are over now

Trees glide in different directions behind a cabin

I guess you never know, never know
And another day waking up alone
But we were something, don't you think so?
Roaring twenties, tossing pennies in the pool
And if my wishes came true
It would've been you

She points

In my defense, I have none
For never leaving well enough alone
But it would've been fun
If you would've been the one
Hey, yeah-yeah

I persist and resist the temptation to ask you if one thing had been different
Would everything be different today?
We were something, don't you think so?
Rosé flowing with your chosen family
And it would've been sweet
If it could've been me

In my defense, I have none
For digging up the grave another time
But it wouldn't been fun, if you would've been the one

Backup singers

Ooh

She rises to her feet, then heads down the slope of the roof, turning and ascending a staircase to enter the cabin

Their wristbands glowing blue, fans in the crowd applaud enthusiastically

Taylor straps on an acoustic guitar with a flower and hummingbird design on the pick guard

"And so, we have brought the folklore cabin to Singapore." Taylor said as the crowd cheered "So, um, folklore is an album that I am extremely proud of, and, um, I started, uh..." The audience cheers "Aw... Aw... Thanks."

The crowd continues to cheer and she waves bashfully

Taylor chuckles "I immediately was picturing this album taking place in the woods, in an imaginary cabin. In my fantasy, in my imagination, I am not a lonely millennial woman covered in cat hair, um..." The audience laughs
