Sweater Weather
The_Neighbourhood Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

And 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 on my sweater
Lets have an adventure
Head in the clouds but my gravity 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 shirts, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Nothing I really wanna tell you about no
'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

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

Coming down
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirts, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Nothing I really wanna tell you about, no no no
'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

Whoa, whoa, whoa

Whoa, whoa whoa
Whoa, whoa whoa
Whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa whoa
Whoa, whoa

'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





It's too cold, it's too cold
The hands of my sweater

The repeated chorus of "One love, two mouths, one love, one house, no shirts, no blouse, just us, you find out" underscores the theme of intimacy, while the refrain "It's too cold for you here, and now, so let me hold, whoa, both your hands in the holes of my sweater" further emphasizes the desire to remain close to their partner.


Line by Line Meaning

And all I am is a man
I am just a human being


I want the world in my hands
I desire to have control over everything in this world


I hate the beach
I don't like going to the beach


But I stand in California with my toes in the sand
Despite my dislike for the beach, I am currently in California with my feet buried in the sand


Use the sleeves on my sweater
I will use the sleeves of my sweater to create a makeshift adventure


Lets have an adventure
I want to go on an exciting journey


Head in the clouds but my gravity centered
Although I tend to daydream, I remain grounded in reality


Touch my neck and I'll touch yours
Let's share an intimate moment by gently touching each other's necks


You in those little high waisted shorts
I find you attractive in your high-waisted shorts


Oh, she knows what I think about
She is aware of what's on my mind


And what I think about
My thoughts are consumed by you


One love, two mouths
We share a powerful feeling of love that's expressed through the connection of our lips


One love, one house
Our love brings us together to form one household


No shirts, no blouse
We are free from the constraints of clothing


Just us, you find out
It's just the two of us discovering each other


Nothing I really wanna tell you about no
There's nothing meaningful I want to share with you at the moment


'Cause it's too cold, whoa
It's too chilly outside


For you here
It's uncomfortable for you to be here


And now, so let me hold, whoa
Let me hug you to keep you warm


Both your hands in the holes of my sweater
We can share body heat by placing your hands inside my sweater pockets


And if I may just take your breath away
I want to make you feel overwhelmed by my actions


I don't mind if there's not much to say
Silence between us is fine if it means we can enjoy each other's presence


Sometimes the silence guides your mind
Quiet can bring clarity to your thoughts


So move to a place so far away
Let's escape to a distant location


The goosebumps start to race
Our bodies react to each other, eliciting a physical response


The minute that my left hand meets your waist
The instant my hand touches your waist, something sparks between us


And then I watch your face
I observe your expression and reactions to me


Put my finger on your tongue 'cause you love to taste yeah
I gently touch your tongue because I know it gives you pleasure


These hearts adore, everyone the other beat heart is for
Our hearts are in sync and beat for each other


Inside this place is warm
The warmth inside represents the love we have for each other


Outside it starts to pour
While it's raining outside, we have our own warm and safe space


Coming down
The rain is falling heavily


It's too cold, it's too cold
The temperature is uncomfortably low


The hands of my sweater
The pockets of my sweater, where your hands can warm up
