i went shopping for a pumpkin ran into a Christmas tree instead of seeing orange and black i saw red and green scary Halloween, scary Halloween i got stuck in between Christmas and scary Halloween i went looking for Frankenstein and monsters to fill me with fear but instead i found Santa Claus and his flying reindeer scary Halloween, scary Halloween i got stuck in between Christmas and scary Halloween tried to find my favorites at the grocery store but they're hard to find so tucked away things aren't where they usually live everything is there to give attention to the holiday display scary Halloween, scary Halloween i got stuck in between Christmas and scary Halloween i don't like to complain too much but why are we in such a holiday rush? with so many days between now and then but here we are counting down the days again scary Halloween, scary Halloween i got stuck in between Christmas and scary Halloween ----------------------------------- (c) 2017 douglas brent smith
you were young and so was i
i'd get on my bike and ride
i'd go where you'd know i was
up and down your road i'd go
on that three-speed very slow
hopin' you'd see me...
up and down your road i'd go
acting like it didn't show
hopin' you'd open your door
my how the years went by
we missed it you and i
i'll give it one more try
hopin' you'll open your door
