THE SPIRITS OF NEW ENGLAND

Lee Kweller (Leestar Music, BMI)/Sherwin Kaufman (MJK Music,

In a small New Hampshire village
On the eve of Halloween
The pumpkins in the windows
Made an eerie fiery scene

There was Jim and Paul and Jeanie and me
As we crossed the moon-lit park
We knew we had each other
To save us from the dark

We trick-or-treated that autumn night
With goblin costumes of ashen white
And the cold October wind had the trees all singing
We would live forever my friends and I
THE SPIRITS OF NEW ENGLAND

We changed as we grew older
And went our separate ways
And Halloween came as before
But never was the same

So I called Jim and Paul and Jeanie
And we made our plans to meet
We got together on Halloween
To reminisce that scene
Where...

We trick-or-treated that autumn night
With goblin costumes of ashen white
And the cold October wind had the trees all singing
We would live forever my friends and I
THE SPIRITS OF NEW ENGLAND

And the children still are laughing
In their brilliant mask disguise
And they fade like distant mem'ries
But a friendship never dies

So here we sit in the local bar
After many years have passed
And we toast our beers and smile through tears
At the questions never asked

Will our children find the pleasure
In each others' company
And find the love in childhood's fun
That sets the spirit free
Like when...

We trick-or-treated that autumn night
With goblin costumes of ashen white
And the cold October wind had the trees all singing
We would live forever my friends and I
THE SPIRITS OF NEW ENGLAND
