Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We go to the playground in the wintertime
The sun is fading fast upon the slides into the past
Upon the swings of indecision
In the wintertime
[Verse 2]
In the dimming diamonds, scattering in the park
In the tickling and the trembling
Of freeze tag
In the dark
[Verse 3]
We play that we're actors on a movie screen
I will be Dietrich and you can be Dean
You stand with your hand in your pocket
And lean against the wall
You will be Bogart and I will be Bacall
[Verse 4]
And we can only say yes now
To the sky, to the street, to the night
Slow fade now to black
Play me one more game of chivalry
You and me, do you see
Where I've been hiding in this hide and seek?
[Verse 5]
We go to the playground in the wintertime
The sun is fading fast upon the slides into the past
Upon the swings of indecision
In the wintertime
Wintertime, wintertime
Wintertime, wintertime
[Verse 6]
We can only say yes now
To the sky, to the street, to the night
We can only say yes now
To the sky, to the street, to the night
