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
In the dimming diamonds
Scattering in the park
In the tickling
And the trembling
Of freeze tag
In the dark
verse 2
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
Bridge 1
And we can only say yes now
To the sky, to the street, to the night
verse 3
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?
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
Bridge 2
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
