Taylor's version :

As my tour progresses, I find myself in Kansas City that evening. I end up singing Karma before getting off stage. A few minutes later I greet and thank for the last time all the fans who came to see and support me. On the way back to the hotel, all I wanted to do was SLEEP. So I took off my make-up and put on my pyjamas so I could go to sleep. I remember starting an episode of Greys and then falling asleep.

I woke up and looked at the clock - it was almost 4pm, I'd slept a whole day. I needed it so badly but I never found the time between the separation with Joe, the concerts, my new album.

I get up, get ready and wait for Jack's call about my new album.

From the first ring I pick up the phone and we start talking about my album, but in particular about a track called "So Long London" which talks about my break-up with Joe. This relationship was everything to me until I found out what was going on behind my back, when I wasn't there. Joe always undermined me and made me look like a fool, he was an actor but didn't want to show his face with me on the pretext that he wanted to keep it a secret, I believed it... Anyway, it's over and I've accepted it, he reproached me so much that I was obliged to talk about it in my song:
And you say I abandoned the ship
But I was going down with it
My white knuckle dying grip
Holding tight to your quiet resentment and
My friends said it isn't right to be scared
Every day of a love affair
Every breath feels like rarest air
When you're not sure if he wants to be there.

Once the call was over I went into a room and started singing a melody before I could put words to it:
Who's gonna stop us from waltzing
Back into rekindled flames -
Before I was interrupted by my phone, Gigi was calling me:

"Hey Tay, how are you?"

"Hey Gigi, I'm good, and you? And Kay?"

"Everything's good, Kay is fine too. I had a question for you."

"Yes, I'm listening."

"For your concert in Paris, I have a show at the same time. Do you think you could get me some tickets? It's been so long since we last saw each other, and I would love to see you. I miss you so much, Tay."

"Aww, my Gigi, I miss you too, and yes, no problem, I can get you that without any trouble. How many do you need?"

"Only two."

"Ok, I'll let you know, Gigi."

"I miss you, Taylor. Kisses, babe."

"I miss you too. Kisses."

As the call ended, I realized how much I was no longer spending time with my friends, but it's my job and they understand, which is all that matters to me.

Hope you like it !!
