Lyrics
Wandering lonely through the snow streets of New York
I stumbled on a thrift store that sold postcards by the yard
I bought a mile and shipped them home so I could read
Ten thousand ten-word tragedies, the lives these strangers lead
To remind myself the things I need
I once wrote you love songs
You never fell in love
We used to fit like mittens, but never like gloves
You left me feeling like we'd never really been in love
Huddled homebound in my place in Holloway
I wondered if you even heard those songs I used to play
I wrote them as a gift for you and in return
You gave a pair of hand-knit mittens to keep my fingers warm
So I could play more ignored love songs
I once wrote you love songs
You never fell in love
We used to fit like mittens, but never like gloves
I once wrote you postcards
But you never wrote back
You promised me you would and I'm still waiting for that
You left me feeling like we'd never really been in love
Don't want to fit like mittens
I want to fit like gloves
I want to fit like gloves
I want to fit like gloves
I once wrote you love songs
You never fell in love
We used to fit like mittens, but never like gloves
But never like gloves

Damn, Frank. I haven’t heard this song before and clicked as I’m getting ready to wander alone through the streets of New York. Probably gonna be crying into my pizza slice now.
You can hear the heartbreak in his voice. You can hear it jn the chords and in his fingertips. We love Frank Turner because we hurt with him.

It's something special when the singer can make you feel their pain.

No one plays acoustically with such immense power quite like frank turner.
Acoustics are usually toned down. I love how he ramps it up.
I love how in Mittens he sings ''I wrote them (songs) as a gift for you'', but in Romantic Fatigue he ''had to switch all the names around and then sing it again'' because he ''probably didn’t write this song for you'' x)))
always raw, always emotional, always badass
The emotions in this song gets me every time. No matter if it's this version, the album version or the video (which is really great). Straight from the heart. I've been there too. Trying to learn it in my humble way on the guitar, so I can get my feelings out. Thankyou Frank :-D
I love that these songs still sound awesome even when he's just belting them out solo. Love the emotion.
I’ve met some people that dont like frank turner. Hes too light and poppy. Dare ya to listen to this
Why in the name of f### is this guy not all over the UK airwaves instead of the constant sh#t we have to endure on our radio stations 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️ was only introduced to him last year and absolutely addicted to his stuff. Awesome. Just awesome
Ok...one more time.. with 'feeling', Frank, with feeling.
Yup, still my favorite Frank Turner song
Die a little more everytime, special when a song can be so powerful and emotive x

My ex and I broke up twice over the course of two years and for the last time this year... I guess we just fit like mittens but never like gloves... though I wish we did...
