Moonlight Manor Parade

The moon is a lantern on a crooked old gate

I slip through the I.D. just a little too late

Candles in the hallway flicker and sway

Calling my footsteps to dance in the gray

Hear the floorboards tapping like a secret code

Every destination

Portrait smiles as I go

It's a midnight parade through the haunted manor

Ever shall takes my hand in the candlelit thunder

We spin through the rafters, we rattle the frame

Laughing at the ghosts as they call out my name

Midnight parade, let the smoke lights blaze

Every shadow becomes a dance partner tonight

Mirrors are waving with a silver grin

And the old piano starts to thunder within

Cop whip confetti just down from above

Like a thousand black hearts learning how to love

Hear the staircase humming with a ghostly beat

Even the marble seems to move to the street

It's a midnight parade through the haunted manor

Every shadow takes my hand in the candlelit thunder

We spin through the rafters, we rattle the frame

Laughing with the ghosts as they call out my name

Midnight parade, let the spook lights blaze

Every shadow becomes a dance partner tonight

If you hear me whisper, don't be afraid

I'm only a guest at the masquerade

The dead on the ceiling, the lost in the hall

Are waltzing together when the midnight bells call

It's a midnight parade through the haunted manor

Every shadow takes my hand in the candle of thunder

We spin through the rafters, we rattle the throne

Laughing with the ghosts as they call out my name

Midnight parade, let the sparklights blaze

Every shadow becomes a dance partner tonight
