Red sweaters Lyrics

"I ain't ever seen"

It's getting chilly this time of year

You bring a blanket to school

'Cause who cares about the rules

You move along with your day

You wave and say hey

It's been a minute

"I haven't talked to you since second period"

We laugh and we smile

We sing and we dial

Later that evening

We're screaming

(Barely breathing)

Containing all this joy and laughter in this heart of mine

(I, I, I you, you, you)

Would you have loved me better

If we got matching red sweaters

Always at this time of year we'd write letters about what we'd wanted

I wrote about you

Maybe we'd still be here

If you did too

Would you have loved me better

If we got matching red sweaters

(Loved me better)

"Sooo I got us sweaters..."

You barely wave when I say hey

Lately you've been acting strange

You and your friends

Can I say? are a little fake

But y'know the weather's getting cold

And sweaters aren't just to hold

I've got a few questions

That really aren't too bold

Would you have loved me better

If we got matching red sweaters

Always at this time of year we'd write letters about what we'd wanted

I wrote about you

Maybe we'd still be here

If you did too

Would you have loved me better

If we got matching red sweaters

(Loved me better)

Bright red scarlet stands out in the snow

The threads and the stitches are coming out like we did

When the sweater deconstructs its no longer enough

So maybe it's a scarf

It can't keep you from the cold but gives your neck a taste of home

So you know where to start

With a scarf
