Halloween

(album: I Won't Fade On You - 2020)

I know it's not the season
But we don't need a reason
To get a little lost in the dark
We're only halfway back home
And we've got so far to go

Underneath the blankets
Your head in the sheets
A ghost in the bed that's still haunting me
Think I got too high to sleep
Another midnight daydream

If we don't ever say what we mean
Every night could be Halloween
If we don't ever say what we mean
Every night could be Halloween, Halloween

Shuffling through the city
We're getting pretty dizzy
From trying to outstare the moon
A summer slowdance gone wrong
And to your favorite slow song

A nightly new tradition
A guilty apparition
To scare the living shit out of me
A thousand winters of snow
Can't bury what we both know

If we don't ever say what we mean
Every night could be Halloween
If we don't ever say what we mean
Every night could be Halloween, Halloween
If we don't ever say what we mean
Every night could be Halloween
If we don't ever say what we mean
Every night could be Halloween, Halloween

We climbed up to mezzanine
Shook some hands and took our seats
Watched ourselves upon the screen
Why does this still bother me
Stumbled up onto the street
Rode the train and not their feet
We try not to make a scene
Read reviews in the magazine

If we don't ever say what we mean
Every night could be Halloween
If we don't ever say what we mean
Every night could be Halloween, Halloween
If we don't ever say what we mean
Every night could be Halloween
If we don't ever say what we mean
Every night could be Halloween
