"Sweater Weather" lyrics

"Sweater Weather"

All I am is a man
I want the world in my hands
I hate the beach but I stand
In California with my toes in the sand
Use the sleeves of my sweater
Let's have an adventure
Head in the clouds but my gravity's centered
Touch my neck and I'll touch yours
You in those little high waisted shorts, oh

She knows what I think about
And what I think about
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirt, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Nothing that I wouldn't wanna tell you about, no

'Cause it's too cold for you here
And now, so let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

And if I may just take your breath away
I don't mind if there's not much to say
Sometimes the silence guides a mind
To move to a place so far away
The goosebumps start to raise
The minute that my left hand meets your waist
And then I watch your face
Put my finger on your tongue
'Cause you love the taste, yeah
These hearts adore
Everyone the other beats hardest for
Inside this place is warm
Outside it starts to pour

Comin' down
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirt, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Nothing that I wouldn't wanna tell you about
No, no, no

'Cause it's too cold for you here
And now, so let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater
'Cause it's too cold for you here
And now, so let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater, woah

Woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah

'Cause it's too cold for you here
And now, so let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater
'Cause it's too cold for you here
Now, let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

And it's too cold, it's too cold
The holes of my sweater

"Sweater Weather" is the lead single from The Neighbourhood's debut EP "I'm Sorry…" (2012) and their debut album "I Love You" (2013).
Frontman Jesse Rutherford told Schon! how the band wrote this song during their first get together in 2011, "It was just a really special moment and it felt special before anybody said it was special. When we first wrote it and showed our families and some friends that we trusted their opinion around town or whatever, it was just a different reaction than we'd ever seen someone have to our music."
Zach Abels recalled how this song came about, "One day Jesse was at my house and I was playing guitar. And he said, 'Hey that's pretty cool, let me record that.' And it just so happened to be 'Sweater Weather'. When we got done writing the song, when it was all said and done we were like 'Okay this is pretty good we should keep writing songs.'"
The original music video for "Sweater Weather" was released on the 28th of March 2012, but was later replaced with the one directed by Zack Sekuler and Daniel Iglesias Jr. and released on the 5th of March 2013.
Pentatonix made a cover version of this song for their album "Christmas Is Here!" (2018).
