[Verse 1]
I took a drive
I went up on the 105
And I passed the old motel and the hamburger stand
And I wondered if I had seen my friend again
[Verse 2]
Been ten years or more
She was living up above the only bar
To that one October I don't care to recall
And I wonder if her spirit roams the ponds
[Chorus]
Well, her ghost is near, but can't be seen
Yeah, the coast is clear on Halloween
Though the fiction dictates something mean
Yeah, the coast is clear on Halloween
[Verse 3]
Came up in '94
I was looking to escape what she had seen
Then she taught me not to hurt anymore
If she were here, she'd know just what I mean
[Chorus]
Well, her ghost is near, but can't be seen
Yeah, the coast is clear on Halloween
Though the fiction dictates something mean
Yeah, the coast is clear on Halloween
[Bridge]
I been over the right
I been takin' it in time
I been outta my mind
I been givin' it time
And I know I'll be fine
[Verse 4]
Let's all take a drive
We'll go back up the 105
And we'll pass the old grocery and the drive-thru and then
We'll see what we can do about my friend
Yeah, I hope she'll try to find me once again
[Chorus]
Well, her ghost is near, but can't be seen
Yeah, the coast is clear on Halloween
Though the fiction dictates something mean
Yeah, the coast is clear on Halloween
