Cathedral of Wails
When the moon climbs high,
And the shadows come alive...
Don't look behind you.
Halloween has arrived.
There's a mansion on the hill,
Where the windows glow at night,
And the trees begin to whisper
Underneath the pale moonlight.
There's a lantern by the gateway,
There's a raven on the stone,
And a voice beyond the darkness
Says, "Tonight you're not alone."
Hear the footsteps getting closer,
Feel the cold beneath your skin,
When the clock strikes twelve at midnight,
That's when Halloween begins.
When the midnight comes,
And the full moon starts to rise,
You'll hear the creatures calling
From the darkness of the night.
Jack-o'-lanterns burning, Bats are dancing through the sky,
When the midnight comes...
Halloween comes alive.
Through the fog along the pathway,
Past the old iron gate,
There's a shadow in the window
Like it's standing there to wait.
Hear the floorboards slowly creaking,
Hear the knocking at the door,
Three knocks echo
through the hallway...
Then you hear them once more.
Hear the thunder in the distance,
See the lightning split the sky,
Something's moving through the graveyard,
And tonight it wants to rise.
When the midnight comes,
And the full moon starts to rise,
You'll hear the creatures calling
From the darkness of the night.
Jack-o'-lanterns burning,
Bats are dancing through the sky,
When the midnight comes...
Halloween comes alive.
One
for the witches,
Two
for the ghosts,
Three
for the creatures
That frighten you most.
Four
for the shadows
That crawl on the wall...
But when the clock
strikes midnight...
They all come to call.
WHEN THE MIDNIGHT COMES!
And the blood moon fills the sky,
Every ghost and every monster Leaves the darkness where they hide.
Hear the whole world screaming,
See the fire burning bright,
When the midnight comes...
Halloween comes alive!
The candles fade...
The night grows still...
But there's one light burning
In the mansion on the hill.
And somewhere in the darkness...
Someone whispers...
"See you next Halloween."
