We go to the playground in the winter time
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
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
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?
We go to the playground in the winter time
The sun is fading fast upon the slides into the past
Upon the swings of indecision in the wintertime
Winter time, winter time, winter time, winter time
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
