Winter
Tori Amos
snow can wait
i forgot my wittens
wipe my nose
get my new boots on
i get a little warm in my heart when i think of winter
i put my hands in my father's cloth
i run off where the drifts get deeper
sleeping beauty trips me with a frown
i hear a voice you must learn to stand up
for yourself cause i can't always be around
he says when you gonna make up your mind
he says when you gonna love you as much as i do
when you gonna make up your mind
cause things has changed
so fast
all the white horsed are still in bed
i tell you that i'll always
want you near you say that things change
my dear
boys has discovered winter as melts
flowers competing for the sun
years go by and i'm still here waiting
withering where some snowman was
miror miror when is the christ still proud of us
but i only can see my son
skatting around the tree
but i know dad
let's skatting
when you gonna make up your mind
when you gonna love as much as i do
when you gonna make up your mind
cause things has changed so fast
all the white horses are still in bed
i tell you that i'm always
want you near
cause things has changed
my dear
hair is grey and the fires are burning
so many dreams
on the shelf
i say i wanted you to be proud of me
i always wanted that myself
when you gonna make up your mind
when you gonna love as much as i do
when you gonna make up your mind
things has gonna changed so fast
