hollows eve masquerade

Put down my backpack and take off my shoes
The journey was good but your knees are still bruised
Oyster pearl eyes and cobwebs for hair
You're a shadow with nobody there

And the harvest Moon, shimmering, melted in two
And poured silver rain into the stream
Where I crossed on the bridge made of stars gently smiling
As the universe loosened its seams

Oh the bells sing, for the 31st night they ring
Leading the way
Through cobbled street paths everwinding
To the hallows eve masquerade

The lamplights they flicker and twinkle with glee
Pink bunting swayed in the sigh of the sea
You found your way lit by small paper lanterns
That fluttered their way back to me

Through the market place, buzzing with spectres and ghouls
Sipping sweet apple wine making merry
You remembered my face, gave an empty embrace
While we lingered away in a dream

Oh the night grieves, as we dance in the falling leaves
Spinning away
On our little paved roads intertwining
At the hallows eve masquerade

As the day breaks and I burst into sunshine rays
A dazzling blaze
Don't weep like the sky, cause you'll find me
At the hallows eve masquerade

And I'll be the creak in your door
To bid you a hallows day
