“Cardigan” is a song recorded by American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift. It was released as the lead single from her eighth studio album, Folklore (2020), on July 27, 2020, through Republic Records.
Written by Swift and her producer Aaron Dessner, “Cardigan” is a slow-burning, folk, soft rock, and indie rock ballad, with subtle piano arrangements, drum cuts, and melancholy fiddles.
The song’s lyrics deal with a comforting romance lost in memory, from the point of view of a female narrator named Betty, one of several fictional characters told in Folklore. The music video for the song, written, directed and arranged by Swift, was released concurrently with the album’s release.
The video is described as following a beautiful cottagecore aesthetic, featuring Swift in three different settings: a “cozy cabin” in a forest, a mossy forest, and a dark stormy sea, which represents the concept of different phases in a relationship.
“Cardigan” was praised by music critics for its poetic songwriting and easygoing sound. It received nominations for Song of the Year and Best Pop Solo Performance at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards. An acoustic version of the song, entitled “Cabin in Candlelight”, was also released.
Commercially, “Cardigan” debuted atop the global Spotify chart with more than 7.742 million streams, which at the time was the biggest opening day for a song on the platform in 2020. On the Billboard Hot 100 as well, Swift scored a US number one sixth in his career. Along with Folklore’s debut atop the Billboard 200 that same week, he became the first artist to simultaneously debut atop the Hot 100 and the Billboard 200.
“Cardigan” later topped the Hot Alternative Songs, Hot Rock & Alternative Songs, Streaming Songs and Digital Song Sales charts, making Swift the first act in history to amass a chart-topping twenty on the latter. It reached number one in Australia, the top ten in Canada, Ireland, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore and the United Kingdom, and the top 20 in Denmark, Estonia, Lithuania and Scotland.

Lyrics Cardigan – Taylor Swift
–
Vintage tee, brand new phone
High heels on cobblestones
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
Sequin smile, black lipstick
Sensual politics
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
But I knew you
Dancing in your Levi’s
Drunk under a streetlight, I
I knew you
Hand under my sweatshirt
Baby, kiss it better, I
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone’s bed
You put me on and said I was your favorite
A friend to all is a friend to none
Chase two girls, lose the one
When you are young, they assume you know nothing
But I knew you
Playing hide-and-seek and
Giving me your weekends
I, I knew you
Your heartbeat on the High Line
Once in twenty lifetimes, I
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone’s bed
You put me on and said I was your favorite
To kiss in cars and downtown bars
Was all we needed
You drew stars around my scars
But now I’m bleeding
‘Cause I knew you
Stepping on the last train
Marked me like a bloodstain, I
I knew you
Tried to change the ending
Peter losing Wendy
I, I knew you
Leaving like a father
Running like water, I
And when you are young, they assume you know nothing
But I knew you’d linger like a tattoo kiss
I knew you’d haunt all of my what-ifs
The smell of smoke would hang around this long
‘Cause I knew everything when I was young
I knew I’d curse you for the longest time
Chasing shadows in the grocery line
I knew you’d miss me once the thrill expired
And you’d be standing in my front porch light
And I knew you’d come back to me
You’d come back to me
And you’d come back to me
And you’d come back
You put me on and said I was your favorite
