Fans Think Taylor Swift's 'Surprise Song' Hints at Feelings for Travis Kelce
Taylor Swift
Taylor Swift isn't one to keep quiet about falling in love.
Fans think the "Anti-Hero" songstress was wearing her heart on her sleeve while kicking off the latest leg of The Eras Tour in Buenos Aires, Argentina on Thursday night, where she seemed to drop a not-so-subtle hint about her romance with Travis Kelce.
During the acoustic segment of the three-and-a-half-hour show , Swift, 33, plays two "surprise songs," from her discography that aren't usually included on the setlist.
Thursday's performance marks the first time Swift is back on the Eras Tour stage since sparking up a romance with the Kansas City Chiefs player, and she appeared to select a surprise song with very pointed lyrics for the occasion.
After playing her track "The Very First Night," Swift headed over to the piano to play "Labyrinth" off her album Midnights, and Swifties couldn't help but notice how fitting the message of the song is.
The Grammy-winner looked like she was trying to hold back a giant smile as she sang the chorus, "Oh no, I'm falling in love again."
The next line features the lyrics, "I thought the plane was going down, how'd you turn it right around?"

The deeper meaning of the song wasn't lost on Swifties, who were practically losing their minds online after Thursday night's performance.
"SHE'S EVEN TRYING TO NOT SMILE," one user on X pointed out.
"Taylor Swift knew what she was doing when she chose Labyrinth as one of the first surprise songs back," another fan added.

"TAYLOR SWIFT SINGING LABYRINTH WITH A SMILE ON HER FACE IS THE MOST PRECIOUS THING I'VE EVER SEEN," someone else exclaimed.
"Labyrinth live featuring Taylor Swift in love and happy is my Roman Empire," another person quipped.
As for Kelce, fans are expecting him to make an appearance in Argentina to support Swift over the weekend while his NFL team has a Bye this week. He was just spotted landing in South America ahead of the second scheduled show.
