I must have fallen on my feet 
A hundred times or more 
I heard the wind blow down the street 
The knocking at the door 
But there was no one there 
Though I looked everywhere 
So was it all a dream? 

Oh Halloween 
The spirits of the past 
The costumes and the masks 
The shipwrecks and the ghosts 
From up and down the coast 
They've all come back to see 
If we were meant to be 
We can't escape our dreams 

Oh Halloween 
You must have followed me back home 
And hid behind my back 
No one could find me on their own 
I'm off the beaten track 
Well I was scared before 
But I'm afraid no more 
And nothing's as it seems 

Halloween 
The spirits of the past 
The costumes and the masks 
To me they don't disguise 
The presence in your eyes 
They turn their heads to see 
If we were meant to be 
A nightmare or a dream 

Oh Halloween
