Taylor Swift is changing her tune. The music superstar is following her uptempo, sassy breakup song, "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," with something much slower ... and happier! "Begin Again" is the second track released from Taylor's upcoming Red album. It's a beautiful ballad that tells the story of a girl who is pleasantly surprised by a new guy who does everything right that the last guy did wrong.

"It's about when you've gotten through a really bad relationship and you finally dust yourself off and go on that first date after a horrible breakup, and the vulnerability that goes along with all that," the singer-songwriter tells ABC's "Good Morning America." "I'm very excited about it."

Taylor Swift "Begin Again" Lyrics:

Take a deep breath in the mirror, he didn't like it when I wore high heels but I do.

Turn the lock and put my headphones on, he always said he didn't get this song but I do. I do.

Walked in expecting you'd be late, but you got here early and you stand and wait. I walk to you.

You pulled my chair out and helped me in, and you don't know how nice that is but I do.

And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid.

I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause he never did.

I've been spending the last eight months thinking all love ever does is break, and burn, and end.

But on a Wednesday, in a cafe ... I watched it begin again.

He said he never met one girl who had as many James Taylor records as you but I do.

We tell stories and you don't know why you're coming off a little shy but I do.

And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid.

I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause he never did.

I've been spending the last eight months thinking all love ever does is break, and burn, and end.

But on a Wednesday, in a cafe ... I watched it begin again.

And we walk down the block to my car and I almost brought him up.

But you start to talk about the movies that your family watches every single Christmas and I will talk about that for the first time.

What's past is past.

And you throw your head back laughing like a little kid.

I think it's strange that you think I'm funny cause he never did.

I've been spending the last eight months thinking all love ever does is break, and burn, and end.

But on a Wednesday, in a cafe...I watched it begin again.

But on a Wednesday, in a cafe...I watched it begin again.
