Winter

Tori Amos

Transposer:

(X2) 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 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 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 cha--nge so fast All the white horses are still in bed I tell you that I'll alwa--ys want you near You say that things cha--nge 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 can only 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 cha--nge so fast All the white horses are still in bed I tell you that I'll alwa--ys want you near You say that things cha--nge my dear (X3) (If you sing this you sing an octave higher for this verse) Hair is grey and the fires are burning So many dreams on the shelf You say I wanted you to be proud 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 cha--nge so vast All the white horses have gone ahead I tell you that I'll alwa--ys want you near You say that things cha--nge my dear Never change All the white horse--s ahaa

La chanson évoque la nostalgie de l'enfance et les réflexions sur la maturité. Elle décrit des souvenirs d’hiver, des moments de chaleur et d’innocence partagés avec un père. À travers des métaphores touchantes, elle souligne le passage du temps, le besoin d'apprendre à se défendre et la nécessité d'accepter les changements inévitables de la vie. Il y a un appel à l'amour de soi et à la prise de décision, face à l'urgence des transformations qui nous entourent. Le contexte de la chanson semble s'ancrer dans un souvenir où l'expression des sentiments et la quête d'identité prennent place, tout en naviguant entre le rêve et la réalité. Les images de l'hiver, des fleurs qui émergent au printemps et des chevaux blancs représentent les cycles de la vie et les espoirs qu'elle renferme.
