Although Taylor Swift's "Look What You Made Me Do" added fuel to her feuds with Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, and probably Katy Perry, her latest single takes on a much more romantic note. The singer's new song "Gorgeous" is a sweet, flirtatious track, and fans think it's about her relatively-new beau, British actor Joe Alwyn. The giveaways are all in the lyrics.

She sings in the first verse: "And I got a boyfriend, he's older than us / ;He's in the club doing I don't know what."
