(Swing Out Sister)  Click above to return to "Shapes and Patterns" 1997  Previous Lyrics  "Shapes and Patterns"  Holding hands with summer  Gentle as a breeze  Fragrant as your petals  Cast their spell and leave  Someone was to blame  No one knew your name  Drifting into autumn  Brush away your tears  Shadows spread their sadness  Stole away her years  Someone was to blame  No one knew your name  (Icy cold as winter)  (Icy cold as winter)  (Icy cold as winter)  Chills your empty heart  Buried with the flowers  Frozen in the dark  Empty as a garden in the summertime  Captured by the falling rain  Now the playgrounds standing still are empty  No one else comes out to play  Warm spring that never came  I never even knew your name  Fill me with completeness  Fill me with your sweetness  Now the sun has gone  Everyone's gone home  No one else comes out to play
