Wicked heart, this night is ours, dance away the midnight hours…

Wicked heart, this night is ours.
Dance away the midnight hours.
Tis the night of spooky fun
Tricks-or-treats for everyone.
Candy corpses, chocolate hearts,
Jelly spiders, pumpkin tarts,
Masquerading through the streets,
Vying for those tasty treats.
Jack-o-lanterns light the way.
Trolls and zombies roam and play.
Creepy skeletons galore
Werewolves, mummies, bats and more,
Lusty kisses, evil grins
Let the darkness hide our sins.
Drinks to those who have since passed.
Music, songs and spells to cast.
Goblins, ghouls and vampires too.
Flying ghosts to torment you.
Take my hand, join me tonight,
Scaring others with delight.
