This is Halloween
Frank & Stein Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I find I have the time of my life
Learning to enjoy at my leisure
All the simple pleasures
And so I happily concede
This is all I ask
This is all I need
Walk a little slower
When you walk by me
Lingering sunsets
Stay a little longer
With the lonely sea
Children everywhere
When you shoot
At bad men, shoot at me
Take me to that strange
Enchanted land grown-ups
Seldom understand
Wandering rainbows
Leave a bit of color
For my heart to own
Stars in the sky
Make my wish come true
Before the night has flown
And let the music play
As long as there's a song to sing
Then I will stay younger than Spring

As I approach the prime of my life
As I grow older and wiser
I find I have the time of my life
I realize that I have more freedom to enjoy my life
Learning to enjoy at my leisure
I am discovering how to savor the simple, wonderful things in life
All the simple pleasures
The little things in life that bring joy and happiness
And so I happily concede
I am content with what I have and who I am
This is all I ask
I don't desire much, just the simple pleasures in life
This is all I need
I am fulfilled by what I already have, I don't need anything else
Beautiful girls
I appreciate the beauty of women
Walk a little slower
Take your time, enjoy the moment
When you walk by me
When I am near you
Lingering sunsets
Sunsets that stay longer than usual
Stay a little longer
Last just a bit more, don't go away too soon
With the lonely sea
In the company of the ocean
Children everywhere
Kids are all around us
When you shoot
When you playfully pretend to shoot
At bad men, shoot at me
I want to partake in the fun with the children
Take me to that strange
Bring me to that peculiar
Enchanted land grown-ups
A mystical place that adults often don't understand
Seldom understand
Rarely comprehend
Wandering rainbows
Rainbows that move aimlessly
Leave a bit of color
Leave a trace of vibrancy and beauty
For my heart to own
To touch my heart and make me happy
Stars in the sky
The celestial bodies above us
Make my wish come true
I hope for my dreams to become a reality
Before the night has flown
Before the night has ended
And let the music play
I want the music to continue playing
As long as there's a song to sing
As long as there is music, I will be happy
Then I will stay younger than Spring
I will feel forever young, vibrant, and alive
