Winter
By
Tori Amos
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 trips
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 going to make up your mind when you gonna love
you as much as I do when you gonna make up your mind
cause thins 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 am I but I
know dad that the ice is getting thin 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 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 have gone ahead I tell you that I’ll always want
you near you say that things change my dear

"he says when you going to make up your mind
when you gonna love you as much as I do
when you gonna make up your mind
cause thins are gonna CHANGE so fast "
I live a slightly altered version of this verse every day of my life
Tori, as sad as I am to say it, just aint what she used to be. Her last few albums have been horrible disapointments. That doesnt mean I wont see her live every chance I get. I just saw her a couple of months ago. She was totally amazing, as always.

What? I admit Strange Little Girls isn't quite up to the incredible standard of her earlier shit (It's still better than Under the Pink) but To Venus and Back and Choirgirl are fucking brilliant. Nothing she does is a horrible dissapointment. (Except how she acts after the show outside with the fans, that cunt, and that early 80's Y Kant Tori Read bullshit) Irregardless, it's still better than 90% of the shit out there...
But I totally agree with you about seeing her live. I actuially got to see both TOOL and Tori Amos live within a week of each other, and both were shows I had literally been waiting years for. And even a band like Tool couldn't fucking come close to the show she put on, it was amazing...

The thing with strange little girls is that it isn't her words and all. You don't get the same insight. (Under the pink is actually my fave )
