evermore (2020) \u201chappiness\u201d is the seventh track on Taylor\u2019s ninth album, evermore (2020). It channels a stream of consciousness, in which the narrator contemplates their divorce and affirms happiness will be found again eventually.With the opening lyrics, \u201cHoney, when I\u2019m above the trees,\u201d \u201chappiness\u201d ties back to \u201cseven,\u201d a song on evermore\u2018s sister album, folklore (2020), which starts with the lyric, \u201cPlease picture me in the trees.\u201d Table of Contents Background and Release Taylor created her eighth studio album, folklore (2020), as a set of mythopoeic visuals in her mind, a result of her imagination \u201crunning wild\u201d while isolating herself during the Covid-19 pandemic. She surprised with the album\u2019s announcement on July 23, 2020, and released it the next day. To satiate her craving to explore more of the \u201cfolklorian woods\u201d she visualized in her mind, Taylor immediately developed another album as a conclusive counterpart to folklore, titled evermore. \u201chappiness\u201d was written roughly a week before the album was supposed to be mastered. Producer and co-writer Aaron Dessner had been working on the composition of the since 2019, thinking it would be a Big Red Machine song; Taylor, however, admired its instrumentals and ended up finishing its lyrics, which was also the case with \u201cright where you left me\u201d. Aaron told Rolling Stone in 2020: \u00abThe music for \u2018happiness\u2019 is something that I had been working on since last year. I had sang a little bit on it, too \u2014 I thought it was a Big Red Machine song, but then she loved the instrumental and ended up writing to it.\u00bb Aaron Dessner The last few weeks of recording evermore overlapped with the recording of Fearless (Taylor\u2019s Version) [2021] \u2014 Taylor\u2019s first re-recorded album; she recorded \u201chappiness\u201d and \u201cYou Belong With Me (Taylor\u2019s Version)\u201d on the same day. Lyrical Theme Despite its title, \u201chappiness\u201d is fundamentally a breakup song that captures post-split emotions. The narrator is addressing their former spouse who has revealed themselves not to be all they thought they were. The narrator is understandably furious, but rather than giving vent to their bitterness, they take the high road and gives their former spouse the \u201cgreen light of forgiveness.\u201d Taylor explained the song as follows: \u00ab[It is] the realization that maybe the only path to healing is to wish happiness on the one who took it away from you.\u00bb Taylor Swift It\u2019s ultimately a hopeful song \u2014 what was bad was also good at times, and there are good things still to come. References to The Great Gatsby \u201chappiness\u201d contains several references to the F. Scott Fitzgerald classic novel The Great Gatsby. Just like Gatsby and Daisy\u2019s ill-fated romance, the song ruminates on the end of a relationship.\u00a0 There are allusions to the novel woven throughout the lyrics. I hope she\u2019ll be your beautiful fool \/ Who takes my spot next to you: This couplet references Daisy\u2019s hope for her daughter that \u201cshe\u2019ll be a fool\u2014that\u2019s the best thing a girl can be in this world, a beautiful little fool.\u201d All you want from me now is the green light of forgiveness: This is a reference to the green light at the end of Daisy\u2019s dock in The Great Gatsby. The light represents Gatsby\u2019s yearning for Daisy, a signal that\u2019s always just out of reach. In our history, across our great divide: This line could also connect to the novel\u2019s setting of West and East Egg. \u201chappiness\u201d isn\u2019t Taylor\u2019s first time incorporating The Great Gatsby into a song. In 2017\u2019s \u201cThis Is Why We Can\u2019t Have Nice Things,\u201d she sings, \u201cFeeling so Gatsby for that whole year.\u201d Live Performance \u201chappiness\u201d received its first live performance acoustically on piano in Hamburg on July 23, 2024, during one of Taylor\u2019s shows on \u201cThe Eras Tour\u201d (2023-2024), almost four years after its release. She played it as part of a mashup with \u201cWe Were Happy\u201d (2021). Commercial Performance Upon evermore\u2018s release, all of the album\u2019s tracks debuted on both the US Billboard Hot Rock &#038; Alternative Songs and the all-genre Hot 100 charts; \u201chappiness\u201d entered at No. 52 on the Hot 100. Lyrics [Verse 1]Honey, when I\u2019m above the treesI see this for what it isBut now I\u2019m right\u2005down\u2005in itAll\u2005the years I\u2019ve givenIs just shit\u2005we\u2019re dividing upShowed you all of my hiding spotsI was dancing when the music stoppedAnd in the disbeliefI can\u2019t face reinventionI haven\u2019t met the new me yet [Chorus 1]There\u2019ll be happiness after youBut there was happiness because of youBoth of these things can be trueThere is happinessPast the blood and bruisePast the curses and criesBeyond the terror in the nightfallHaunted by the look in my eyesThat would\u2019ve loved you for a lifetimeLeave it all behindAnd there is happiness [Verse 2]Tell me, when did your winning smileBegin to look like a smirk?When did all our lessons start to look like weapons pointed at my deepest hurt?I hope she\u2019ll be your beautiful foolWho takes my spot next to youNo, I didn\u2019t mean thatSorry, I can\u2019t see facts through all of my furyYou haven\u2019t met the new me yet [Chorus 2]There\u2019ll be happiness after meBut there was happiness because of meBoth of these things I believeThere is happinessIn our historyAcross our great divideThere is a glorious sunriseDappled with the flickers of lightFrom the dress I wore at midnightLeave it all behindAnd there is happiness [Bridge]I can\u2019t make it go awayBy making you a villainI guess it\u2019s the price I pay for seven years in heavenAnd I pulled your body into mine every goddamn night nowI get fake nicetiesNo one teaches you what to do when a good man hurts youAnd you know you hurt him too [Verse 3]Honey, when I\u2019m above the treesI see it for what it isBut now my eyes leak acid rainOn the pillow where you used to lay your headAfter giving you the best I hadTell me what to give after thatAll you want from me nowIs the green light of forgivenessYou haven\u2019t met the new me yetAnd I think she\u2019ll give you that
