Halcyon days

[Intro] It's Halloween again, I can feel it in the wind, with decorations lining the streets it brings me back to simpler times when things were OK. [Verse 1] The world has changed since then: COVID plagues, protests in the streets and dirty politician deals, but that's ok because it's nights like these that calm my mind [Chorus] Autumn leaves flow through the air and it takes me back to my youth [Verse 2] things may be tough and that's ok, I've always felt that these things build character. Give me fall again. [Chorus] take me back to fall again. [Verse 2] these days I find myself staring into the dark, with halloween halcyon days in my mind. Where did it go? Where did autumn go? I miss the days where all I needed was a bag full of candy and a mask full of imagination, to steal me away. [Chorus] Please bring me fall again. [Verse 3] take me back to those days when ghouls and tricks were on my mind and all lifes problems were miles away please bring me fall again. I miss this days when it felt like the world couldn't touch me and my biggest concern was what house to hit next. [Verse 4] Warm autumn days and cool brisk nights, oh please give me fall again. Kids lined the streets and we had it made, [Verse 1]I miss the cool autumn nights where I could just sit and stare at the sky, where did autumn go? Give me back my peace of mind and bring me back to those halloween halcyon days. Life was simpler then, where our only problems were waking up and getting ready for the school day. Now I sit here, jaded and alienated from the world around me. Back then we had no Ukraine wars or sketchy planes, just me and my Gameboy to keep me company. Where did autumn go? I feel it all around me every day, just an echo of itself. Please take me back again [Chorus] take me back to fall [End] bring me back my innocence and the joy that I once had, because I just feel empty and lost in memories long since passed, give me back my halloween halcyon days, oh please take me back to fall.
