Hold still for a minute while I try to find my words
I'm sorry if you caught me off guard
I should have seen it coming if the past is one to tell
But you know me I try to be happy
And do you still run away from ghouls in the graveyard
While I kindly ask them to play
And would you stand by me as I try to lend a hand
Or would you quickly shy away
Halloween still haunts me as the night she really died
And Christmas just feels like a funeral
I buried her in my backyard on the banks of a pond
And I still dream of her ghost every Sunday
Does anything still scare you like the fireworks on New Year?
You always said they made you feel old
Another year gone, what is there to celebrate
One year closer to our graves
So dance with me on the highway in a dress of scarlet
Wear a ring carved from your mother's bones
You told me demons only lie in the depths of children's minds
But I swear I caught you praying that night
Halloween still haunts me as the night she really died
And Christmas just feels like a funeral
I buried her in my backyard on the banks of a pond
And I still dream of her ghost every Sunday
The fire in the sky says I miss you
The fire in the sky says I do
The fire in the sky says I miss you
The fire in the sky says I do
Halloween still haunts me as the night she really died
And Christmas just feels like a funeral
I buried her in my backyard on the banks of a pond
And I still dream of her ghost every Sunday
