lyrics:
The sun is gone now, stoves are on now
Outside there’s silver on the ground
In a moonlit town

Into November, we’ll all remember
Halloween was jumping like a hound
In a moonlit town

Potatoes were baking
Everyone was making
Costumes out of crazy things they found
Make it, in a moonlit town

Summer’s long days
Have gone their own ways
Around the world
They’ll be back again

On a Fall night
Everything is all right
Dressed up on the street out with your friends

There was parading, and masquerading
Did you wear the crown or play the clown
In a moonlit town

Everybody talking, laughing and walking
Slowly block to block they make the rounds
All around a moonlit town

Greens are gold now
Nights are cold now
Soon there will be snow out in the wind

On a Fall night
Everything is all right
Dressed up on the street out with your friends

Wherever you’re from
Know that you’re welcome
If you want to bring your family ‘round
To this moonlit town
