Dynamics
While being simple love story contains a rushed pace which continually grows. As the song gets louder within the chorus, more instruments come in whilst Taylor Swift also sings louder. The song slows down throughout the bridge but speeds up again in the chorus following it. Finally the song has a swirling yet dreamy soprano alongside the music.
