Swift, Taylor - One Way Ticket Lyrics






Standing on the border
Looking out into the great unknown
I can feel my heart beating faster as I step out on my own
There's a new horizon and the promise of favorable wind
I'm heading out tonight, traveling light
I'm gonna start all over again

And buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go
Cause I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know
I will face the world around me
Knowing that I'm strong enough to let you go
And I will fall in love again
Because I can

Gonna climb the mountain
And look the eagle in the eye
I won't let fear clip my wings and tell me how high I can fly
How could I have ever believed
That love had to be so blind
When freedom was waiting, down at the station
All I had to do was make up my mind

And buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go
Cause I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know
I will face the world around me
Knowing that I'm strong enough to let you go
And I will fall in love again
Because I can

Well, I have walked through the fire
And crawled on my knees through the valley of the shadow of doubt
Then the truth came shining like a light on me and now I can see my way out

Buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
See how far I can go
Cause I'm gonna go out dancing in the pouring rain
And talk to someone I don't know

Buy a one-way ticket on a west bound train
I'm gonna have my breakfast with some pink champagne
Gonna sail the ocean, gonna spread my wings
Gonna climb that mountain, gonna do everything

Swift, Taylor One Way Ticket Comments
  1. M.... J....

    I really adore this song

  2. M.... J....

    so good music

  3. w.... w....

    So shes 12 does anyone actually have proof like a video bc this sounds live and i wanna see it shes so adorable :)

    w.... w....

    Yeah she's 12 but it was recorded in her living room by Mama Swift (Andrea) when she had her guitar & microphone in her living room (I'm from Scotland & I don't know where you are from but it may be called something different where you live). It is unreleased even though Scott Borchetta actually asked her to re-record it to put on an album (Probably 'Taylor Swift' her self-titled album) because he loved it. She should have though! I absolutely love it!

    w.... w....

    @Sarah-Louise Davidson me too I love everything about Taylor swift :)

    w.... w....

    Wes Wells this is when she's 9

  4. S.... ....

    baby Taylor Swift singing but it's a LeAnn Rimes song

    S.... ....

    StoneOak no

    S.... ....

    It's Taylor swift song she wrote it

  5. T.... B....

    she has written the same words on her songs all her life

    T.... B....

    I don't know what you mean by that. She's a great lyricist. Also, this song isn't even written by her. Leann Rimes originally sang this (I don't know who wrote it) and 9 to 12-year-old Taylor Swift covered it when she was trying to get any performance opportunity she could get.

    T.... B....

    There are this things in most of her songs:
    -phones, windows, flying, names, months, trucks, pictures, rain, dancing, tears, towns, black dresses, blue jeans...

    T.... B....

    +Toñi Brecia LOL, it's general we found in country music.

    T.... B....

    I've noticed too😁 like 2AM, rain, 13 etc

  6. D.... F....

    3:08 Taylor is putting her hands on her ears to not hear her voice pitched like this! hahahaha

    D.... F....

    Actually this was when she was 12 so she did have that voice which is amazing, especially for a 12 year old. Scott Borchetta actually asked if she would put it on an album (Possibly/Probably 'Taylor Swift' her self-titled album) because he loved it but only sing it again when she was signed to Big Machine Records, which she should've! I LOVE this song & it is not 'Pitched' at all because it's an unreleased song.

    D.... F....

    Sarah-Louise Davidson This song is a cover. She didn’t write it

  7. A.... O....

    it does not sound like taylor

    A.... O....

    @Addy Oroz ITS FETUS TAY DUH

    A.... O....

    @Addy Oroz oops I didn't realize it was on all caps sorry hehe

    A.... O....

    It was her when she was young

  8. t.... m....

    She Sounds Like a Little girl....

    t.... m....

    I heard she was nine when she recorded this.

    t.... m....

    because she was a little girl....

    t.... m....

    She was a little girl

  9. F.... B....

    This isn't Taylor...

    F.... B....

    She was eight when she recorded this

  10. K.... A....

    this is taylor i can tell i heard the unpitched one

  11. T.... B....

    Im a bit oncfused is this taylor?

  12. s.... ....

    Darlin', just 'cause you think it's Miss Swift singin' doesn't mean it is. This is pitched LeAnn Rimes

    s.... ....

     http://m.imdb.com/name/nm2357847/trivia     here's the mix up and the catch 22 thesong is Le-ann's but the one on here is Taylor they were both in the same competition when Taylor heard it...link will explain.

    s.... ....

    @CJ BURLINSON

    s.... ....

    CJ Burlinson
    I know one thing about demos they say demo, t.swift is one way ticket demo by Taylor Swift, it also says ....tswiftrare
    It's defiantly LeeAnne Rimes singing this song very early copy but I have cd and it's this song.
    Not Taylor Swift.

  13. H.... M....

    She was 12...

  14. i.... k....

    its sound cute

  15. J.... R....

    She was 12

  16. m.... h....

    omg she sounds sounds so diffirent one the first one to now

    m.... h....

    May the most holy, most sacred, most adorable, most incomprehensible and unutterable Name of God be forever praised, blessed, loved, adored, and glorified, in Heaven, on earth and in the Hells, by all the creatures of God, and by the Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. Amen. Holy is His Name.

  17. H.... J....

    For a twelve-year-old this is pretty good.

  18. M.... S....

    I mean...comparing LeAnn Rimes who was like nearly 20 when her version come out to Taylor when she was 12...yeah, okay.

    M.... S....

    McKenzie Stewart Leann was 13 when she realeased this song dummy

  19. 0.... ....

    It's a really happy, uplifting song..and her voice is so young, of course it's not perfect but then she was only a kid.

  20. J.... W....

    LeAnne Rimes is the original Singer... she does it way better!!!!!

  21. h.... ....

    Pink champaign. Really taylor? Lol

  22. A.... M....

    aàaaaaaaaaaaaàaaaaaasæààåqàåàaaAsddg

  23. F.... ....

    Taylor is the best singer EVER. All you haters BACK OFF. If you don't like her, why are you even listening to her song in the first place?! Go back to the basement and continue playing your lame games!

  24. S.... H....

    @hayweed1987 1- she was 11. 2- the pitch is increased because otherwise it would get taken off. 3- she is a multimillionaire and you're probably sitting on your couch in your mothers basement.

  25. T.... ....

    Did she actually make this song up?

    T.... ....

    No. This is leann rimes song.

  26. c.... ....

    This is so cute: Taylor was so young, but she sounded amazing, though. And I bet she looked so pretty :)

  27. M.... ....

    oh please go to the songs YOU like and stop being mean to fans!!!

  28. r.... ....

    Hayweed shut up she was 12 I think she did great her voice wasn't fully matured

  29. L.... F....

    At 12, the talent was already in place. Her voice matured nicely.

  30. A.... H....

    To think such a cute adorable voice became the worlds American beauty

  31. F.... M....

    taylor sang this better

  32. P.... A....

    *Rimes. Yeah, I was thinking that when it said all right to Taylor because LeAnn Rimes sang it originally

  33. S.... ....

    Ehm, I think I got it from google? ahah it was a long time ago

  34. J.... H....

    I love T-swift. But this is Definetly Leanne Rhymes' song...

  35. M.... W....

    haha, i was thinking, "this is NOT taylor swift, who dungoofed?" but then i read the comments. she has an adorable voice ^_^

  36. L.... ....

    Really like it

  37. C.... X....

    I typed One Way Ticket and this came out as the top result instead of the original One Way Ticket song.

  38. T.... M....

    Well she is taylor swift

  39. T.... M....

    Wow im 13 and she was ten times better than i am now

  40. A.... H....

  51. R.... M....

  52. x.... ....

    Um, this is actually LeAnn Rimes song not Taylor Swifts.

  53. O.... ....
