This week, Alicia and Melissa wander back in time as Taylor revisits a long-ago love affair that left her feeling like a crumpled up piece of paper lying here - and they remember it all too well. From Scarf Stealer's (Jake Gyllenhaal's) apparent continuing pattern of seducing women way too young for him - which is certainly one part of this song's origin story - to the glittering emotional clarity of these lyrics, our Swiftorians drink in this phenomenal and heartbreaking story set to music.
