8.Dorothea – “𝘢 𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘺 𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘪𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦 𝘐 𝘴𝘦𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘯𝘰𝘸”

“Dorothea” is the eighth song on evermore, as well as the first song that Taylor Swift wrote for this album. Taylor referred to the character as a “girl who left her small town to chase down Hollywood dreams.” “tis the damn season” is likely the story of her return back home for the holidays. “Dorothea” itself seems to be told from the point of view of an old hometown lover.

The song mirrors “The Lucky One” from Taylor’s Red album too, I got the imagery of a retro American shop front covered in small televisions for the tiny screens, this could also be referring to FaceTime and video chatting with the lockdown or busy schedules. 📺
