Katy Perry shares emotional lyrics for new single 'Small Talk'
It's released this Friday
It was only few months ago that Katy Perry dropped her fantastic song 'Never Really Over', and now, she's just announced another new song is coming our way!
As well as announcing the new song, 'Small Talk', Katy has shared some of the song's lyrics on her socials. The series of three photos show the handwritten lyrics, written on a white pad of paper with the words 'From the desk of Katy Perry' written at the top.
After reading the lyrics, it appears the song is about other past relationships...
The second set of lyrics are...
'Isn't it weird
'Thank I know your weakness
'And everybody at the party thinks
'That you're the best since sliced bread.'
Finally ending with...
'I just can't believe
'We went from Strangers to lovers to
'Strangers in a lifetime.'
Fans have been quick to comment on Katy's lyrics, with many suggesting Taylor Swift might have some involvement with the song, leaving messages such as, 'TAYLOR X KATY OMGGGG 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥', and 'FT TAYLOR !!???'.
Whilst it is unknown if Taylor is involved with the song, singer Charlie Puth is apparently a producer on the track. After he seemed to confirm his involvement with the song last month, he then took to his Instagram Stories to promote Katy's new song.
'Small Talk' is the follow-up to Katy's comeback single "Never Really Over' which was released earlier this year. The upbeat single featured Katy exploring the nature of relationships, writing the track with Zedd, Dan Haywood, Leah Haywood, Dagny, Gino Barletta, Michelle Buzz, Jason Gill and Hayley Warner.
At the time of the single's release, Katy said, "All of our relationships - from first love, through failed love, to great love - all become a part of you, so that none are ever really over, and once you accept both the dark and the light, you may find that the darkness brought you to the light."
