Forever Halloween Lyrics

Just this once
Just for now
You can be anything
In the world
Darlin' don't
You start to scream
It doesn't mean anything
It's make believe

Kids in constumes
Dressed like Kings and Queens
Little monsters
Walking down my street
In this place I'll
Be anything but me
So you be brave and
I'll still be eighteen

So just this once
Yeah just for now
yeah you can be anything
Anything in the world
And darling don't
Don't you start to scream
It doesn't mean anything
It's just make believe

Kids in costumes
Dressed for Halloween
Ghosts and goblins
Walking down my street
We're all monsters
Living in a dream
So you be you
And I'll still be happy

Forever Halloween...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for Forever Halloween lyrics by Maine, The

by Art77

11y ago

John is reflecting on his life. He is saying that he likes the idea of Halloween, and wishes that it was all the time because he doesn't like the person he has become. He wants to pretend he's better than he really is, and living this false reality will ultimately make him happier than if he were to just be himself.
