I don't think I've listened to any Taylor Swift songs since she said Romeo and Juliet was a love story.
It is a love story. It's a tragic one, but it is still a story about love.
Let me address your comment with a quote from Romeo and Juliet:
“Love is a smoke raised with the fume of sighs”
Romeo and Juliet is one of the most famous love stories ever written. Like many Shakespeare plays, it is also met with and often consumed by tragedy.
