The Neighbourhood - Sweater Weather
[Verse 1]
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 off my sweater
Lets have an adventure
Heads in the clouds but my gravity's centered
Touch my neck and I'll touch yours
You in those little high waisted shorts
Oh
[Pre-Chorus]
She knows what I think about
And what I think about
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirts, no blouse
Just us to find out
Nothing that I really wanna tell you about no
[Chorus]
Cause it's too cold whoa
For you here
And now
So let me hold whoa
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater
[Verse 2]
And if I may just take your breath away
I don't mind if there's not much to say
Sometimes the silence guides our minds
To move to a place so far away
The goosebumps start raise
The minute that my left hand meets your waist
And then I watched 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
[Pre-Chorus]
Coming down
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirt, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Nothing that I really wanna tell you about
No no no
[Chorus]
Cause it's too cold whoa
For you here
And now
So let me hold whoa
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater
Cause it's too cold whoa
For you here
And now
So let me hold whoa
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater
Hold
[Bridge]
Whoa, whoa...
Whoa, whoa... whoa
Whoa, whoa... (x2)
[Chorus]
Cause it's too cold whoa
For you here
And now
So let me hold whoa
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater
It's too cold whoa
For you here
And now
So let me hold whoa
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… and also features on their debut full-length album I Love You. “Sweater Weather” is one of The Neighbourhood’s most successful tracks, peaking at #14 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts in December 2013 and spent 11 weeks at #1 on the Alternative charts. The music video for the track reached 100 million views in December 2015, when the video was merely two years old. “Sweater Weather” is the first song the band had ever written together, composed during their first practice, around a year prior to its release. Frontman Jesse Rutherford recalled the historic day to Schon! in December 2015: “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…”
