Swift sings, “I found myself running home to your sweet nothings / I'll take their pushin’, shovin’ / You’re in the kitchen humming / All that you ever wanted from me was nothing,” capturing “things being so crazy but being able to go home and just exist and be able to be vulnerable with someone you trust,” as one fan put it. One Reddit user called the song a “safe space with your person epitomized,” with another adding, “How lovely it is to be so comfortably in love like this.” The lyrics also allude to Swift’s tumultuous life in the spotlight, and the ways in which her relationship with Alwyn has provided shelter. Under his pseudonym William Bowery, Alwyn is listed in songwriting credits for “Sweet Nothing,” with fans speculating he composed the track’s catchy piano riff (given his previous ivory-tickling contributions on Swift albums folklore and evermore). But it seems well-equipped to capture the dynamic between Swift and the song’s co-writer: Swift’s partner of six years, Joe Alwyn. The gentle simplicity of Taylor Swift’s “Sweet Nothing,” the penultimate track on her 13-song Midnights album, might be divisive amongst fans for its quiet approach.
