leather (live) [montreux 1991] - tori amos lyrics

[intro]
“i played this song for somebody, um… a few years ago. played the piano all my life and, um, i just stopped playing one day. i couldn’t play anymore. and, um, why? that’s… we’ll go out to dinner, talk about it. but, um, anyway, so, i stopped playing and this is one of the first songs i wrote to play again and, um, i played it for a record man. and, uh, he said, ‘if you play this song, you have no career.’ so i’m playing it.”

[verse 1]
look, i’m standing naked before you
don’t you want more than my s-x?
i can scream as loud as your last one
but i can’t claim innocence

[chorus]
oh god, could it be the weather?
oh god, why am i here?
if love isn’t forever
and it’s not the weather
hand me my leather

[verse 2]
i could just pretend that you love me
the night would lose all sense of fear
but why do i need you to love me
when you can’t hold what i hold dear?

[chorus]
oh god, could it be the weather?
oh god, why am i here?
if love isn’t forever
and it’s not the weather
hand me my leather

[interlude]

[verse 3]
i almost ran over an angel
he had a nice big fat cigar
“in a sense,” he said, “you’re alone here
so if you jump, you best jump far”

[chorus]
oh god, could it be the weather?
oh god, why am i here?
if love isn’t forever
and it’s not the weather
ah, oh god, could it be the weather?
oh god, it’s all very clear
if love isn’t forever
and it’s not the weather
hand me my leather
