The singer took to social media to make the announcement alongside a note explaining that the album's ideas came in during the self-isolation period amid the novel coronavirus pandemic.

Official "Cardigan" Lyrics:
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 knew you
Hand under my sweatshirt Baby kiss it better
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 knew you
Your heartbeat on the High Line Once in twenty lifetimes
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 knew you
Tried to change the ending Peter losing Wendy
I knew you
Leaving like a father Running like water
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
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan Under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your favorite

Swifties are in for a treat! Taylor Swift recently dropped her eight studio album "Folklore," alongside a music video of her latest single "Cardigan."
The acclaimed singer wrote and directed the music video for "Cardigan," which already amassed over 21 million views as of writing. In the music video, Swift is first seen playing the piano inside a room, and she sees some magical forces coming from her piano.
The singer then leaps and finds herself in between a forest, later in an ocean, and finally returning to her room. In announcing its arrival, Swift explained that they took extra precautions while filming.
"The entire shoot was overseen by a medical inspector, everyone wore masks, stayed away from each other, and I even did my own hair, makeup, and styling," she wrote on Instagram.
The "Cardigan" music video comes as Swift released her eighth studio album, "Folklore," on July 24. The singer took to social media to make the announcement alongside a note explaining that the album's ideas came in during the self-isolation period amid the novel coronavirus pandemic.
