"Haunted House make a Secret"

My name is Holly, next to me is Harry. We are always the two of us, making nothing but trouble
Then one evening, a hand caught us, and we fell in love at first sight with that child who came along
Blue eyes, milk colored skin, a bright red ribbon in a flow of chestnut
Her smile was magic. Our hearts caught in our chests.

She snuck from her bed without telling Papa. She frolicked for us in Mama’s dress.
When she smiled, it was a rainbow, dyeing the old mansion in brilliance.
So many things, so many people, but somehow that child still seemed lonely
She was always alone, offering up that innocent, honest face

But, Harry, with our transparent bodies, we cannot embrace that child
Since the stars are so beautiful tonight, I want to stay by her side a little longer

My name is Holly, next to me is Harry. There is one more, she is like a Lily
3 am, we gather in the usual room. Tonight, too, let’s forget time and play
But the two of us who dislike the morning cannot always be with her
And, so, in the end, she is alone again today

But, Harry, with our cold hands, we cannot wipe away her tears
So let’s tell all our secrets before dawn

As the seasons turn, that child will someday become an adult and no longer be able to see us
Then she’ll probably forget everything. The moon blurs outside the window.

But, Harry, with our transparent bodies, we cannot embrace that child
Since the stars are so beautiful tonight, I want to stay by her side a little longer

The secret stays a secret.
