    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

    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.

    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)))

    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
