    Lyrics
    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
    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
    Huddled homebound in my place in Holloway
    I wondered if you even 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
    I once wrote you postcards
    But you never wrote back
    You promised me you would and I'm still waiting for that
    You left me feeling like we'd never really been in love
    Don't want to fit like mittens
    I want to fit like gloves
    I want to fit like gloves
    I want to fit like gloves
    I once wrote you love songs
    You never fell in love
    We used to fit like mittens, but never like gloves
    But never like gloves

    @ilovedinosaursx97 9 років тому +11

    everyone is asking why it isn't positive?? since when has frank been positive in every song, the whole album is about picking yourself back up, this is a song about getting over someone and accepting your no longer together and moving on, its still rings with the message of the whole album

    Such a criminally underappreciated artist 💖💖💖💖 this song always brings me to tears whenever i listen to it and i can't put into proper words how beautiful it really is and how perfectly painful it is at the same time - truly a gorgeous song

    Frank I don't get how you keep doing this but don't stop making these great songs. And anyone who doesn't like this song does not have ears

  • @kittyloland3199
    @kittyloland3199 6 років тому +1

    bruh it makes me cry when I listen to your songs again. My dad showed me recovery and that was the first song I ever heard from you. Now about 3 or 4 years im listening to this song making me cry. Frank your songs have been with me through the ups and downs of my life and I cannot wait for a new song.

  • @FroyDestroy

    Frank Turner is my lief, i'm literally just waiting for his new album. At the beginning of the song i was just like, "ok, this is so Frank Turner." not impressed at all, but in the middle of the song i caught my self smiling until the end, it awoke me. Because exactly, this is what Frank Turner is.

    Man this album can't drop soon enough. I loved Get better and the next storm and this is brilliant in a very different way. A much needed remedy to Gaslight anthem announcing an indefinite hiatus yesterday too.

    @michaelbooth2788 9 років тому +7

    Frank Turner has one of the most raw voices I've ever heard
    Paired with his great lyrics and the genius of the Sleeping Souls, he's a fucking force of music
    This one doesn't catch me as much as Get Better, which is my fave off the new album so far, but it's still pretty fucking good!

  • @sarahrosejenkins8947
    @sarahrosejenkins8947 7 років тому

    It's heartbreaking, this song. Frank Turner, you know how to take emotion and put it into words everyone understands. You make pain understandable. This song hits so close to home.

  • @jimshuttle
    @jimshuttle 9 років тому

    I was apprehensive about where Frank would go with this album. I was delighted to find out I loved 'Get Better'. I like 'The Next Storm' but nowhere near as much. But 'Mittens'...I adore this. Brilliant song. Frank, you've done it again.

  • @almeidajonathan42
    @almeidajonathan42 9 років тому +27

    For a second there I thought this new album wouldn't have this kind song that you can't really figure it out whether is it happy or sad.
    Even though I started listening to Frank Turner through "Recovery", it was this type of ambiguous lyrics/rhythm that captivated me.
    And, of course, the truly depressive songs, which I still hope this album has.

    • @Livemusicgigs
      @Livemusicgigs 9 років тому +13

      Song for Josh, the final song on the album is heavy as all hell. it's been interesting watching frank grow as a writer, I saw him when love ire and song was the only album he had released. his music was powerful then, now it's just unreal.

    • @Livemusicgigs
      @Livemusicgigs 8 років тому

      Swear House Gaming Yeah definitely. But technically Love Ire and Song couldn't have been the only album he released as he released 3 more befor that! (Sleep is for the week, Poetry of the deed, and the first three years);)

    It sounds like he is reading a love poem alone in his room. I have no idea if that's intentional or just the way I hear it. I would say it lacks the depth of a worst things happen at sea or emily's heart but still very much looking forward to his new album.
