Mittens Lyrics - Positive Songs For Negative People - Frank Turner

Wandering lonely through the snow streets of New York 

I stumbled on a thrift store that sold postcards by the yard 

I bought a mile and shipped them home so I could read 

Ten thousand ten-word tragedies, the lives these strangers lead 

To remind myself the things I need 

Cause I once wrote you love songs 

You never fell in love 

We used to fit like mittens, but never like gloves 

You left me feeling like 

We'd never really been in love

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Huddled home up in my place, in Holloway 

I wondered if you ever heard those songs I used to play 

I wrote them as a gift for you and in return 

You gave a pair of hand knit mittens to keep my fingers warm 

So I could play more ignored love songs 

I once wrote you love songs 

You never fell in love 

We used to fit like mittens, but never like gloves 

And I once wrote you postcards 

You never wrote back 

Promised me you would and I'm still waiting for them 

You left me feeling like 

We'd never really been in love 

Don't wanna fit like mittens 

I wanna fit like gloves 

Wanna fit like gloves

I once wrote you love songs 

You never fell in love 

We used to fit like mittens but never like gloves 

Never like gloves
