[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

[Verse 4]
You stand
With your hand
In your pocket
And lean against the wall
You will be Bogart
And I will be
Bacall
[Chorus]
And we can only say yes now
To the sky, to the street, to the night

[Verse 5]
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 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
Wintertime, wintertime
Wintertime, wintertime

[Chorus]
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
