To think I nearly didn’t go
To that party where we met
The thought of us not meeting
That’s a thought I must forget
Who knew on that spooky night
I would meet my life long mate
Something must have made me go
I think they call it fate
You went with that girl Marylyn
She called you on the phone
Wanted you to go with her
But you ended up alone
I came over and I spoke to you
You were standing by the door
We chatted as we sipped our drinks
And then we spoke some more
We flirted with the boys back then
They wanted us to dance
Short black dress and high heel shoes
They never stood a chance
We really hit it off that night
You were only seventeen
Our seeds of love were planted
On that special Halloween
Nine years on our seeds have grown
We never saw them grow
They’d been there for a long long time
But we just didn’t know
If you ask me why I fell for you
I don’t know what I’d say
The one thing that I know for sure
I love you more each day
We love each other very much
That clearly can be seen
I’m feeing so much love for you
As we near this Halloween
I’ve something I must say to you
I’m going to shout it loud
I’ll love you babe with all my heart
Of that I’m really proud.
