“I wrote it when I was 18 or 19, but my friend just had a baby and she named me godmother of it,” Swift told the cheering crowd. “I was holding this little baby the other night, and I was just thinking differently. When you’re holding onto something that’s so innocent and so perfect and has no idea what’s coming for it with the world. The world is going to throw so many things at you as you grow up. It made me think of this song I wrote a long time ago called ‘Never Grow Up.’”

Actress King, 36, previously gushed about picking Swift for her son’s godmother telling Elle.com, "I always knew she was going to be the godmother if I had another baby. Choosing a godmother is a very sacred and important thing in our family. They're going to be guiding your child, and they're responsible for them if something was to ever happen.”
