[Intro — whispered] Halloween... Everybody wears a mask. But I know which one is yours. [Verse 1] I saw you walking when the sun went down Black little dress, disappearing through the crowd Everybody screaming, music way too loud But I could hear your footsteps through it all somehow I followed slowly, never getting near A little distance keeps the mystery clear You never noticed, but I was always there Watching every movement, every turn, every stare [Pre-Chorus] I know the streets that you take home I know the hour you're alone Every little thing you do Makes me wanna follow you [Chorus] Halloween, I'm watching you Through the dark, I'm coming through Mask on my face, you never knew Halloween, I'm watching you Tick-tock, hear the midnight sound Footsteps getting closer now Turn around, but don't look down Halloween... I'm coming 'round [Post-Chorus — whispered] I'm watching you I'm watching you You never know When I'll come through [Verse 2] You stopped inside a little corner bar I watched you dancing underneath the stars You kissed somebody, I remember who Funny how quickly I started hating them too Midnight came, the whole street changed Painted faces, bloody hands, nothing looked the same I wore a mask and disappeared inside Walked right past you... You never looked my way. [Pre-Chorus] The city sleeps, the moon is high I watch your shadow pass me by You never know I'm close tonight That's what makes it feel so right [Chorus] Halloween, I'm watching you Through the dark, I'm coming through Mask on my face, you never knew Halloween, I'm watching you Tick-tock, hear the midnight sound Footsteps getting closer now Turn around, but don't look down Halloween... I'm coming 'round [Bridge — stripped down] I know the color of your bedroom light I know you leave it on when you're afraid at night I know the window that you never close I know the perfume that you wear the most You think you're finally out of sight... But I've been watching all night. [Silence] Knock... Knock... Knock... [Whisper] Happy Halloween. [Final Chorus — bigger, darker] Halloween, I'm watching you Through the dark, I'm coming through Mask on my face, you never knew Halloween, I'm watching you Tick-tock, hear the midnight sound Footsteps getting closer now Turn around, but don't look down Halloween... I'm coming 'round [Final Drop — distorted / whispered] I'm watching you I'm watching you You never know... When I'll come through. Halloween... I'm watching you. [Outro — whispered] Take off your mask... I want to see your face. There you are.
