Freeze Tag - Suzanne Vega

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

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 wintertime

The sun is fading fast

Upon the slides into the past

Upon the swings of indecision

In the wintertime

Wintertime

Wintertime

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
