Taylor sang “Bigger Than the Whole Sky” from the Midnights album.
“Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye / You were bigger than the whole sky / You were more than just a short time / And I’ve got a lot to pine about / I’ve got a lot to live without / I’m never gonna meet / What could’ve been, would’ve been / What should’ve been you,” Taylor sings in the chorus of the song.
Taylor never addressed the death of Ana Benevides or said that the song was dedicated to her, but fans believe she specifically chose the song to pay tribute to the fan who lost her life on Friday.
There was also a lyric change in the song.
In the second verse, Taylor usually sings, “Every single thing to come has turned into ashes.” Instead she sang, “Every single thing I touched has turned into ashes.”
