Did Taylor Swift make a romantic statement about Travis Kelce on her Buenos Aires show?
There was a bit of disappointment for fans of the so-called rom-com “TNT” (Taylor ‘n Travis) on Thursday night in Buenos Aires. Taylor Swift kicked off her South American leg of the hugely successful The Eras Tour, but there was no new episode of the beloved show due to Travis Kelce’s absence. Where was it? At a charity event with teammate Patrick Mahomes in Kansas City.
However, there’s still hope for a new episode as Taylor is performing again tonight and tomorrow in Argentina. While fans may have missed out on a new episode of their favorite romance,” they did get treated to some surprise songs from Taylor.
As usual, she always has a couple of surprises up her sleeve for every show. One of the surprise songs she performed in Buenos Aires was “Labyrinth” off her album “Midnights.” And Swifties are speculating about the significance of this song choice, because the lyrics include lines like “You know how scared I am of elevators, never trust it if it rises fast. It can’t last. Uh oh I’m falling in love. Oh no, I’m falling in love again.”

Did Taylor make a public statement through her music?
Taylor had never performed “Labyrinth” live before, so this has led some fans to believe that she may be hinting at a new romance in her life, and that it may in fact be a public and musical declaration of her romance with the Kansas City Chiefs’ star tight end. Swift knows that her fans are always looking for hidden messages and connections in her songs and performances. And last night in Buenos Aires, she gave them something to ponder with her song choice.
In addition to the musical surprises, Taylor also made a fashion statement by wearing a lot of pink during the show. This has led some fans to speculate that her next re-recorded album will be “Lover.” It seems being a Taylor Swift fan is like being on a never-ending treasure hunt. There’s always something new to discover or decode.

What are Labyrinth’s lyrics?
Here are the full lyrics to the song with which Taylor seems to accept her new romance with Travis Kelce, who is expected to appear at one of her concerts in Argentina or Brazil, which is her next stop.
“Labyrinth”
(Verse 1)
It only hurts this much right now
Was what I was thinking the whole time
Breathe in, breathe through, breathe deep, breathe out
I’ll be getting over you my whole life
You know how scared I am of elevators
Never trust it if it rises fast
It can’t last
(Chorus)
Uh oh, I’m falling in love
Oh no, I’m falling in love again
Oh, I’m falling in love
I thought the plane was going down
How’d you turn it right around?
(Verse 2)
It only feels this raw right now
Lost in the labyrinth of my mind
Break up, break free, break through, break down
You would break your back to make me break a smile
You know how much I hate
That everybody just expects me to bounce back
Just like that
(Chorus)
Uh oh, I’m falling in love
Oh no, I’m falling in love again
Oh, I’m falling in love
I thought the plane was going down
How’d you turn it right around?
Uh oh, I’m falling in love
Oh no, I’m falling in love again
Oh, I’m falling in love
I thought the plane was going down
How’d you turn it right around?
(You know how much I hate it)
(You know how much I hate it)
(You know how much I hate it)
The Eras tour has resumed after a nearly three-month-long break, and with it comes the return of what Swifties have dubbed “surprise song anxiety.”
