The shadows are walking in the still night air
The lights are flickering there is someone there

As you turn your head the shadows turn too
You look for the light the light follows you

You pray to your maker to show you the way
It says, "let them play", it’s just for one day

So I watch the wide eyed face as they gather around
And the happiness within when a friend is found

Now when the shadow confront me I will not shudder or scream
I’ll let the dead people enjoy Halloween!
