Winter

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 hands in my father's glove I run off where the drifts get deeper Sleeping Beauty it drips 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 come pleading for the sun Years go by and I'm used to waiting With a ring with some snowman's Mirror mirror where's the crystal palace But I can only see myself Skating around the truth who I am But I know 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 gray and the fire is burring 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 --- Winter - Tori Amos
