This is exactly the meaning that I'd given the song, even before reading your post. I still couldn't figure out what it meant by "Father" but now it makes sense. :) |

| The Neighbourhood – Sweater Weather Lyrics | 12 years ago |
|
I agree that it's about infidelity, only that in the song he's talking to the "other" girl, who is likely just a summer love. 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 He's out of town for some reason but he's not having a good time until he sees some girl he likes, and he thinks they could have an adventure to spice things up. "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" She knows he's in a committed relationship, but none of them wants to bring that up, it's just the elephant in the room. "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" He doesn't care that they don't know each other really well, because it's just a fling. "'Cause it's too cold whoa/or you here/ And now, so let me hold whoa Both your hands in the holes of my sweater" His heart is "cold", he doesn't have any real feelings for her but since they're spending time together he offers to do something nice for her, figuratively, such as protecting her from his own fake feelings or, more literally, the cold weather. |
