reauthorization doesn't work

I downloaded a song on my iphone but it won't sync to my itunes on my pc. It keeps telling me to authorize the device but it has been authorized already. Why is this happening?

iPhone 6s, iOS 13

Repeated requests to authorize an already authorized computer for recent store downloads typically indicates you have corrupt or incomplete copies. Delete the tracks that won't play from your library without hiding from your purchase history. Redownload using the cloud links that should remain, or close iTunes and reopen if they don't show up straight away. While downloading click the activity widget and turn off the option that allows for simultaneous downloads.
