Winter

Winter

Tori Amos

Little Earthquakes

Snow can wait

I forgot my mittens

Wipe my nose get my new boots on

I get a little warm in my heart

When I think of winter

I put my hand in my father's glove

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

When you gonna love you as much as I do

When you gonna make up your mind

'Cause things are gonna change so fast

All the white horses are still in bed

I tell you that I'll always want you near

You say that things change my dear

Boys get discovered

As winter melts

Flowers competing for the sun

Years go by

And I'm here still waiting

Withering where some snowman was

Mirror mirror

Where's the Crystal Palace

But I only can see myself

Skating around the truth who I am

But I know Dad the ice is getting thin

When you gonna make up your mind

When you gonna love you as much as I do

When you gonna make up your mind

'Cause things are gonna change so fast

All the white horses are still in bed

I tell you that I'll always want you near

You say that things change my dear

Hair is grey

And the fires are burning

So many dreams on the shelf

You 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 you as much as I do

When you gonna make up your mind

'Cause things are gonna change so fast

All the white horses have gone ahead

I tell you that I'll always want you near

You say that things change my dear

Never change

All the white horses
