“That’s When” is a duet describing the aftermath of a relationship breakup, with Swift in the role of the individual who stepped away from a relationship due to needing space and Keith Urban contemplating whether he should take her back. It was originally written for Swift’s sophomore album, Fearles...
[Verse 1: Taylor Swift]
You said, "I know"
When I said, "I need some time, need some space
To think about all of this"
And you watched me go
And I knew my words were hard to hear
And harder to ever take back
[Pre-Chorus: Taylor Swift]
And I said, "When can I come back?"
[Chorus: Taylor Swift]
And you said, "That's when
When I wake up in the morning
That's when, when it's sunny or stormin'
Laughin', when I'm cryin'
And that's when
I'll be waitin' at the front gate
That's when, when I see your face
I'll let you in and, baby, that's when"
[Post-Chorus: Keith Urban]
Mmm, mm
[Verse 2: Keith Urban, Taylor Swift, Keith Urban & Taylor Swift]
I said, "I know"
When you said, "I did you wrong, made mistakes
And put you through all of this" (Through all of this)
Then through the phone
Came all your tears
And I said, "Leave those all in our past"
[Pre-Chorus: Keith Urban]
And you said, "When can I come back?"
[Chorus: Keith Urban, Taylor Swift, Keith Urban & Taylor Swift]
And I said, "That's when
When I wake up in the morning
That's when, when it's sunny or stormin'
Laughin', when I'm cryin'
And that's when
I'll be waitin' at the front gate
That's when, when I see your face
I'll let you in and, baby, that's when"
[Bridge: Taylor Swift]
And you said, "Honestly
When you were gone
Did you ever think of me?"
[Chorus: Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift & Keith Urban]
And I said, "That's when
When I woke up in the morning
That's when it was sunny or stormin'
Laughin', when I was cryin'
And that's when
You were waitin' at the front gate
That's when, when I saw your face
You let me in, and baby, that's when"
[Outro: Taylor Swift, Taylor Swift & Keith Urban]
(That's when)
(When I woke up in the morning) Yeah
(That's when it was sunny or stormin')
When I'm laughin', when I'm cryin'
(That's when I'll be waitin' at the front gate)
That's when I miss you, that's when I want you
(That's when, when I see your face)
That's when I love you, that's when

We ended up ultimately writing a song about someone who is in love, in a relationship, but just all of a sudden is like, “Wait, I just need some space, I need to think about this”, and kind of leaves, and what does the other person do.

Swift shared via Twitter:
I’m really honored that Keith Urban is a part of this project, duetting on That’s When and singing harmonies on We Were Happy. I was his opening act during the Fearless album era and his music has inspired me endlessly.
