Sweater Weather Lyrics - Singles - The Artichokes

Verse 

Ive been hiding 

Ive been writing 

The same songs in notebooks used to fuel the fires Im writing 

Ive been singing 

Ive been sinking 

Between the molecules of drinks that Ive been drinking 

Ive been dreaming 

Ive been keeping 

My secrets safe inside my body while Im sleeping 

Prechorus 

She leans in close, starts whispering 

I wish I could fly, please lend me your wings 

Chorus 

I hate the spring and all its storms 

I think the summers far too warm 

Just give me autumn and a mild winter 

Im talking sweater weather, I long for sweater weather 

Verse 

Ive been driving 

Ive been finding 

The folks who mean the most are the ones who wont stop lying 

Ive been sleeping 

Ive been piecing 

Together pieces of the life that Ive been leading 

Ive been stopped up 

Ive been locked up 

Inside my head with all the things I swore to not touch 

Prechorus 

Chorus 

Bridge 

For a moment I thought that something was there 

Apprehensive, calm-faced by I was so scared 

Dont you see this, this is why we cant follow our hearts 

Id never want this, but Ive been a strain from the start 

Thursday morning and the suns barely shone 

People swarming to tear the meat from my bones 

Dont you see this, this is why we cant follow our hearts 

Id never want this but Ive been a strain from the start 

Who told you love was born in boys arms 

Who told you love was born in the backseats of parked cars 

Who told you love was measured out in sparks 

Who told you love would keep you safe and keep you out of harm? 

Prechorus 

Chorus
