Amos, Tori - Winter Lyrics
Snow can wait. I forgot my mittens
Wipe my nose
Get my new boots on
I get a little warm in my heart
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."
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

Amos, Tori Winter Comments
Beautiful
This was the first song I'd ever heard by this Goddess of Song that wasn't her cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit.
If my recollection is accurate, here's how it went:
0:07 Well this is a nice melody...
0:30 Her voice is absolutely lovely....
1:25 Oh, that voice has Power....
2:08 Wow, she's pretty deep, too...
3:13 I pledge my Eternal Allegiance to Queen Tori....
4:20 Yup, that's a Goddess of Song right there...
Yeah, that seems about right... ;-)
I miss my daughter so much.....
I'm here becoz of Mick Foley, Cactus jack,mankind
Things change, in the name of the father.
This song was the "father-daughter" dance at my daughter's wedding. Our mutual choice. :D
A beautiful voice that reminds me of Kate Bush ❤
finally, Tori steps out of Kate Bush's shadow
You are missing a whole verse
Hi friend
Saw Mick Foley last night at the improv. Now I'm here..... What!?
Has she got a ginger Mott!!!!
How are her T's so soft
So the name of the album that this song is from is "Little Earthquakes". Is a "little earthquake" an orgasm?
This song uplifts me and make me want to weep on my knees in equal measure. Absolutely beautiful songwriting.
Disappointing. Parts were left out.
In two days it will be 6 years since my dad passed away, a few months before he did he made me listen this song, saying it was one of his favorites. Since I’m French and I was really young back then I didn’t understand the lyrics. Since he died I think of him each time I listen to this song but I never came back to the lyrics until today, now I feel like he wanted me to hear that even when he knew he won’t be here anymore
What a beautiful creature. Last time I fall in love with a female artist was with the 'björk - venus as a boy' video
This song makes me cry...Tori has the capacity to touch me in a very spot of my existence...where I am just vulnerable...she is expressing all that I never could or never had words for
A hauntingly beautiful song. Every time I've heard it since it's release, I've had to just stop and listen.. Love everything about Tori
one of the deepest songs I´ve ever heard
she is absolutely beautiful.
Esta canción me hace recordar mejores tiempos...
What a beautiful song, why am i only discovering her now
The most bad ass bitch on a piano
goddess, how may i worship you?
I just fell in love with her... At first heard.
She is an Eternal Dawn...
An Endlessly Blossoming Flower, kaleidoscoping into my every definition of Love.
Tori's made her place in my private Pantheon since I discovered her, and how a heart works, in those flawless 90's...
October 2019, still communing with The Divine through her...
this song is so sad when you get beaten by your dad.
Saga Sitches im so sorry please tell someond
4:03 I swear, she was crying at this point and it makes me choke up as well. Love ya, Tori...
Penso che questa sia vera arte! Meravigliosa Tori Amos.
Mick Foley brought me here
The emotion in Tori’s voice on this song still makes the hairs on my arms stand on end... this moves my soul.
Ahhh the 94 Tori Amos.... Music Magic
I don't know if I will ever see a sbow you will do, or meet you. I will put this out there, can you do a duet series? One artist I have enough respect for because what he has done that I would recommend for thot is Johnathan Davis from Korn. Anyway love you Tori
I love you Tori. I have seen a lot of I am this or that which does not include the typical demograph who likes something and I think that sucks.
This song reaches heart.
I cried too many times to count w this one....actually high school and Tori albums were one big beautiful heartbreak....
Who is Mick Foley?
I use to sing this song to my daughter when she was a baby. 17 years later she still loves this song.
I love you girls.
Tori Amos I love you!
apparently i'm not the only one who cries listening to this.
Милая славная рыжая бестия я слушал тебя 25 лет назад и слышу сейчас,ты прелесть,я тебя обожаю...
Beautiful
When you gonna love you as much as I do?
I like her..
Can I dedicate this to my dad who passed away today. Love u dad xxxx
Still listening and loving this in 2019
MASTERPIECE
listening this in 21 Aug 2019...the Chinese version was the one brought me here :)
I love this song, but only rarely can I listen to it. I lost my dad in 2018. I am still hurting.
I know it was the 90’s but I just feel like an artist and song of this caliber really deserved a better music video.😐
That's her patriarchy, right there... and isn't it beautiful? :)
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
Love the extremez I play
She is soooooo old now. DAMN.
TRUMP 2020!!!! I love this song
beautiful
Kate Bush memories. There's a similarity.
Lovely!
I wish my father would have heard this when I was 7 or 11 years old.
She should be waaaayyy more famous that she is. Writes and sings her own songs while playing the piano. Those talents are rarely seen together in artists that are ruling the charts these days...
La escuchás y te destroza por dentro. Es fabulosa
We need more Tori suggest it please
Love this song! One of my fave Tori songs. I've been lucky enough to see her live and she is absolutely stunning live. Such an amazing voice and artist!
What does she really mean when she says "all the white horses are still in bed"?
This version is missing some lyrics! The album version was about half a minute longer, and had another verse "Mirror, mirror, where's the crystal palace..." It's here if you would like to hear it:

😭😭 this song makes me cry every single time😭 this is the only thing that can get me to cry easier than my dad can
This is a Reallöhne beautiful women, Not only physically
the second concert, I ever attended was to see Tori Amos with my older sister while in high school. after 20 years, it's still one of my favorites! love you Tori Amos
Goose pimples.
I use to have this on CD when it first came out. It was my favorite song by her.
Love Tori but I was brought here by Foley! 😂
The first time I heard Tori Amos I was 20 and it was on BBC Radio 1. The Hairy Cornflake played it and he was was pretty impressed I remember. She's been the soundtrack to my life ever since.
Interesting Mick Fowely stated he would get hyped up for his intense wrestling matches by listening to this tune.
warum sitzt sie so un/ab artig auf dem 3 FußHocker? Komisches Video/ Music.
Was will sie uns sagen/ zeigen?
I love this singer and her music so much, real art
Wow, so ahead of her time.
I did this cover in remembrance of my fathers love for me, I recovered from many losses due to this song. Thanks doll, with much love,

Is there anyone else 💖
One of my favorite songs, ever.Tori is an extraordinary artist.I was fortunate enough to see her in concert."When you gonna love you as much as I do"=tears
Gorgeous. One of the most beautiful tear-jerking songs ever written
She has BEAUTIFUL TEETH !!!!!!!
I don't remember asking my parents to come to this cruel world. I would never want to come, if i was asked for.
Daddy loves you Emma😢
From Nym, precious. You are amazingly singing the best things i have ever heard of. Love Nym.
I forgot how beautiful this song is
Haunting voice...beautiful....
Everytime someone references "Cats in the Cradle" as *the* song about parenthood whizzing by, I just point them to this piece:
"...I tell you that I'll always want you near...you say that things change, my dear..."
помню, вспервые услышал эту песню на радио где-то в начале 90-х мне было лет 15-16... и вот я в деревне у бабушки ложусь спать и настраиваю старый приемник на только-то появившееся nогда в нашей глуши радио "MAXIMUM" и в ночи, в тишине, в темноте слышу эти волшебные звуки... я был поражен. Не знал тогда кто поет и название песни. Интернета тогда не было... помнил только слова snow can wait i forgot my mittens
Where's the end of the song at? Doesn't it end with an a few extra piano notes and her saying "never change"?
😢😢😢😭😭😭
Her expression from her eyes is unreal
One of my favourite, I've loved her since the early 90s. Such a talented, beautiful woman. This song means even more to me now as time passes and I get older. I discovered her when I was 13 and I'm now 42. She has a special place in my heart x
it's so strange how much I relate to this song.
..when i think of Winter I truly do think of my dad.
when my brother, sister and i would go see him on the weekends in the Winter it was just magical. he lived in the middle of nowhere in the mountains (of Southwestern PA).
when that area got snow it was literally like a Winter Wonderland. just feet and feet of the stuff, nothing but a complete whiteout for miles! they would get so much snow that the roads would be completely shut down, not just dangerous for drivers, but literally shut down. so he would tie a sled on the back of a snowmobile and he'd go flying down snow covered roads, with us bouncing and laughing on the back. (the jumps were the best! we would just fly through the air)!! :D
during that time and for a few years after, he would occasionally say things to me, like "you need to stay away from those boys. you don't need them."
i would just laugh or say "oh daddy you're crazy!" and he would respond with something like, "yeah, we'll see."
and he was right. "boys we're discovered."
but your dad is always your 1st true love. I never realized how much of an impact that has on a daughter or a father until i heard this song.
the older I get, the more it makes sense.
..or at least thats my take on it anyway. everyone has their own interpretation, I'm sure. ❄
#thingschangemydear
Beautiful piano playing (and sound) here and quite the orchestration. Wow! Oh, and yes, very deep and moving tune as well.
A soul bearing description of her relationship with her father. They loved each other beyond measure, but still questioned their place. What a brave song to write. Hard shit to do at any age.
This always reminded me of my Dad. Now that he is gone, it has so much more meaning. I am working on loving myself as much as you did. I love you Pops, forever and a day 💙
Growing up can be so painful - and this song is so poignant - thank you Tori !
This song always reminded me of my dad because his hand was always the only strong one I ever had to hold. I emailed this song to him a few months before he passed away from lung cancer. He knew at the time I sent this, but didn't want to break my heart, he messaged me back that the words meant so much to him, and told me how much he loved me. When he passed I was there with him when he took his last breath, and this song was playing over and over in my head.💖
