When it comes to Instagram, having photos or a reel ready to go is just half the battle. A key component of an excellent post is writing the perfect caption. Some may even say that a caption can make or break your Instagram post. Should you be funny? Straightforward? Cryptic? It’s a daunting task, but fear not, everyone’s favorite superstar has nearly 400 songs packed with lyrics fit for any occasion. Whether you’re posting for a celebration, a vacation, or just because, we've rounded up the best Taylor Swift lyrics to consider pairing with your next post.
"Love you to the moon and to Saturn"
The folklore album is packed with caption possibilities, but this one from track "seven" is an excellent option for posting how much you adore your friends, family, or partner.
“How evergreen, our group of friends"
From "champagne problems." This evermore-era bit is perfect for a wholesome photo or carousel featuring your besties...just don't mention the rest of the song.
"Lately I’ve been dressing for revenge"
We’ve all seen the epic choreography during this Eras Tour performance, and we’re bringing that energy into your next post. If you’re in your revenge era, put on your best dress, snap a fire photo, and seal the deal with this "Vigilante Sh*t" lyric.
"Take the moment and taste it"
Have you unlocked a new core memory? Whether you’re posting after the Eras Tour, an epic vacation, or a memorable moment, cling tight to your friendship bracelets and use this empowering lyric from "You’re On Your Own, Kid" for your next post.
"Flying in a dream, stars by the pocketful"
Stars are open for interpretation here, so whether you’re posing in front of a literal night sky, your favorite artist, or simply living out your dreams, this ethereal "Snow On The Beach" lyric makes an excellent caption.
"Babe, don’t threaten me with a good time"
For posts following a night out or a getaway on a whim, this 1989-era classic is the perfect companion for that blurry bar photo. No "Bad Blood" here!
"Rosé flowing with your chosen family"
A folklore favorite, this line from "the 1" is best paired with a photo of besties and a bottle of wine, both of which combine to help you forget about the one.
"Karma is my boyfriend"
Did you just break up with someone? Go all out with some shade from "Karma."
"Baby, let the games begin"
Whether embarking on a new phase of life or simply a night out, set the tone when posting on the cusp of it all with this classic Taylor line from Reputation's opening track. Ask yourself, are you "…Ready For It?"
"There’s glitter on the floor after the party"
This emotion-evoking Reputation track is full of lyrics to help you reflect on a good time. "New Year's Day" in particular is a great option post-party, post-Eras Tour, or any occasion that leaves candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor.
"We’re happy, free, confused, and lonely in the best way"
Aren’t we all? "22" will go down in history as one of Taylor’s best bangers, and while it may seem like an obvious option for a birthday post, consider this line for a sentimental photo with your pals, too.
"Long story short, it was the wrong guy"
When you’re ready to pack a punch post-breakup…"long story short" is for you.
"Dear reader: get out your map, pick somewhere and just run"
From globetrotting to remote road trips, spark wanderlust among your followers with shots from a getaway and this line from the Midnights (3am Edition) closing track "Dear Reader."
"I have this thing where I get older but just never wiser"
A cheeky-yet-slightly-self-deprecating option for a birthday post, "Anti-Hero" gets bonus points when paired with a carousel of funny (or embarrassing) memories from the previous year.
"Hold on to the memories, they will hold on to you"
"New Year's Day" works on everything from wedding albums and family photos to simple moments that turn into core memories.
"But I know I had the best day with you today"
This Fearless-era song has evoked tears for years, "The Best Day" is a stunning anthem honoring Taylor's relationship with her mother. Even if you've outgrown the age of princesses and pirate ships, add this sweet line to your next family photo for a dose of nostalgia.
"You kept me like a secret, but I kept you like an oath"
The secrecy of this caption is enough to keep all of your followers guessing who you’re alluding to here, but the one who knows, knows. Post and then start playing "All Too Well" in the background.
"And now I see daylight"
There are infinite caption options when it comes to hard launching, but "Daylight" says so much with so little. For anyone waiting for what seems like an eternity for love, launch your new sweetheart with this powerful lyric. Honorable mention: "I once believed love would be black and white, but it's golden."
