However, “Ruin the Friendship” isn’t the first time Jeff may have made a veiled appearance in Taylor’s music. Fans also believed that the song “Forever Winter”—a vault track off her 2012 album Red—is about Jeff as well, with Taylor discussing a friend struggling with mental health and substance abuse. “All this time, I didn't know / You were breakin' down / I’d fall to pieces on the floor / If you weren't around,” she sang during the chorus. “Too young to know it gets better / I’ll be summer sun for you forever / Forever winter if you go.”The Grammy winner added during the verse, “I pull at every thread trying to solve the puzzles in his head / Live my life scared to death he'll decide to leave instead.”While Taylor hasn’t shared the inspiration behind that track, she did discuss “Ruin the Friendship,” explaining during her Amazon Music intro that the song “wistfully goes back in time to moments that you hesitated.”“Moments that you were too scared or anxious to do something that you were really curious about,” she continued. “The idea of if you told this person you had feelings for them, or if you kissed this person, you might ruin the friendship.”But as the “Love Story” singer noted, “What really would have been so bad about that?”Especially as it means you wouldn’t have to “spend your life wondering what would have happened if you would have done it.”For a full breakdown of all the tracks on The Life of a Showgirl, keep reading.
