My heart, my hips, my body, my love!

Travis Kelce shared which song in girlfriend Taylor Swift’s music catalog he “learned to absolutely love” — and it’s not a permanent fixture of her globally sold-out Eras Tour setlist.

During a bonus episode of the “New Heights” podcast on Wednesday, the 3-time Super Bowl champ revealed a track that he’s become a fan of from the 14-time Grammy winner’s discography.

“‘Death By a Thousand Cuts’ is one that I’ve learned to absolutely love,” Kelce, 35, said during a bonus episode of his “New Heights” podcast on Wednesday.

The tenth track on her “Lover” album has only been performed around a handful of times in her Eras Tour and Travis said he “fell in love with it” after seeing Swift perform it during a 2019 “Tiny Desk” concert by NPR.

While gushing about the tune, Travis accidentally said “NRP” opposed to “NPR,” which stands for National Public Radio.

Kelce also likes “So High School” and “The Alchemy” tracks which are rumored to be about him.

Elsewhere, the NFL star shared some of his girlfriend’s other songs that he’s a fan of.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end and his brother, former Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce, talked about their favorite tracks after a listener asked Travis to pick only one song that he could listen to for “the rest of his life.”

Instead of naming a song that fans suspect she wrote about him in her latest double album, titled “The Tortured Poets Department,” the athlete picked the second track from her first pop album “1989.”

“‘Blank Space’ is a song that I’ll always listen to forever,” he said. “It’s just unbelievable, everything about it.”

There was no mention of her Eras tour finale, “Karma,” in which she would sometimes sing the updated lyrics, “Karma is the boy on the Chiefs coming straight home to me.”

The “Grotesquerie” actor then brought up liking Swift’s “So High School” and “The Alchemy” tracks, both of which are rumored to reference the duo’s romance.

He also named “Cowboy Like Me” from Swift’s “Evermore” album, released in 2020.

Meanwhile, Jason, 37, chimed in, saying his favorite track is “I Can Do It With A Broken Heart.”
