[Verse] The moon hangs heavy, a spectral eye, Above the stones where shadows lie. Old Daniel walks, his lantern's gleam, A fragile light in a ghostly dream. He's caretaker here, a lonely soul, Whose nightly rounds take their fearful toll. For whispers rise, and chilling sighs, As restless spirits meet his eyes. [Verse] A rustle stirs, a chilling sound, A spectral form glides o'er the ground. Daniel's heart pounds, a frantic beat, His courage falters, his knees grow weak. He tries to stand, to face his fear, But icy dread holds him so dear. The ghosts they dance, a spectral show, Their chilling laughter starts to grow. [Bridge] The Ghosts dance in delight, while he cowers in fright. Their cheerful voices light up the place, He hopes for dawn pick up the pace. [Chorus] As they dance and laugh in the midnight hours, he can't help his shaking knees and cowers. (Oh those ghosts, please let them disappear!) Alone fighting this fear at night.. Being here,doesn't feel right! Look the ghosts, in numbers they roam, (oh look at them!) asking for cheers, not to mourn! [Verse] He sees them all, the pale and thin, Their mournful eyes, their ghostly grin. He wants to run, to flee and hide, But fear holds him, his spirit tied. He fights the fright, he tries to be brave, But terror's grip, he cannot save. He shrinks and cowers, small and low, As spectral figures come and go. [Verse] But as the dawn begins to break, A golden light, the shadows shake. The ghosts retreat, their power wanes, As morning's sun, the night disdains. Daniel breathes deep, a sigh of relief, His fear subsides, his heart's reprieve. He smiles at last, the day is near, The hell! Finally, he gets out of here. [Chorus] As they dance and laugh in the midnight hours, he can't help his shaking knees and cowers. (Oh those ghosts, please let them disappear!) Alone fighting this fear at night.. Being here,doesn't feel right! Look the ghosts, in numbers they roam, (oh look at them!) asking for cheers, not to mourn!
