Track Insight / Lyrics
Meter drops as mist climbs over cobblestones
Little witches clutching plastic pumpkin thrones
Sodium glow paints faces orange, pale, and thin
I know each corner where the shadows begin
Halloween walks where the yellow lamps sway
Trick-or-treat shadows in the autumn mist play
Fare after fare, the night never ends
Pumpkin light flickers on dividends
Sodium waltz till the morning descends
Vampire cape caught in the passenger door
Candy corn scattered across my floorboards
Skeleton hands fumble for change in the dark
I drive slow, let the night leave its mark
Halloween walks where the yellow lamps sway
Trick-or-treat shadows in the autumn mist play
Fare after fare, the night never ends
Pumpkin light flickers on dividends
Sodium waltz till the morning descends
Frankenstein's bride fixes her veil in my mirror
Werewolf howls at a siren drawing near
Thirty years driving, I've seen every guise
Kids grow up fast beneath these orange skies
Engine idles at the cemetery gate
Cold wind rattles the license plate
No fare tonight, just memories to haul
Ghost of my daughter in a princess shawl
Time's the only meter that counts for all
Spiderweb frost on the windshield glass
Another season comes, another will pass
Teenage grim reapers laugh, loud and bold
I smile wide as the stories unfold
Halloween walks where the yellow lamps sway
Trick-or-treat shadows in the autumn mist play
Fare after fare, the night never ends
Pumpkin light flickers on dividends
Sodium waltz till the morning descends
Dawn bleeds gray through the skeleton trees
Last ghost climbs out, drops coins on my seats
Meter clicks zero, the shift finally done
Same route tomorrow when the dark returns
Halloween walks where the yellow lamps sway
Trick-or-treat shadows in the autumn mist play
Fare after fare, the night never ends
Pumpkin light flickers on dividends
Sodium waltz till the morning descends
Sodium waltz where the Halloween ends
Meter resets in the fading light
Drive safe, kids — happy Halloween night
