Moonlit Pumpkins in the Hall

I wander slow through the pumpkin hole

Lantern eyes are blinking on the wall

Shadows spin in a sugar skull grin

Every crooked corner pulls me in

Tiptoe, tiptoe to make a sound

Moonlight's hiding where the cobwebs crown

And a velvet spark

Friendly fright

And a velvet dunk

Oh, the lanterns glow

And the pumpkins hum

In the midnight hall

Where the soft ghosts come

They twirl with me

Where the candlelight falls

And laugh like wind

To the crooked walls

Oh, I'm lost and found

In the same old dream

Where the moonrise lays and the shadows gleam

Every turn is a secret, sweet and strange

In the playful maze of the Halloween rings

There's a hat on a chair with an awing stare

A painted bat and the chandelier hair

The floorboards creak like a nursery rhyme

Counting steps in the hour of time

Tiptoe, tiptoe, I hear my name

Whispered low like a candle flame

Tiny thrills in a violet arc

Leading me through the shimmer and spark

The lanterns glow and the pumpkins hum

In the midnight hall where the soft ghosts come

They twirl with me where the candlelight falls

And laugh like wind through the crooked walls

Oh, I'm lost in sound in the same old dream

Where the moonrise lays and the shadows gleam

Every train is a secret, sweet and strange

In the playful maze of the Halloween range

If a shadow reaches out its hand

I'll take it slow, I'll understand

Somewhere beneath the skulk I sheen

Is the kindest night I've ever seen

Oh, the lanterns glow and the pumpkins howl

In the midnight hall where the soft ghosts come

They twirl with me where the candlelight falls

And laugh like wind through the crooked walls

Oh, I'm home inside this haunted beam

Where the dark is bright and the edge is tree

Every corner holds a playful surprise

In the pumpkin hole with the starry eyes
