Comet Song
Bright Eyes
[Verse 1]
The city shines, a silver street lamp glistens in the snow
Shiver as I’m walking by just knowing what I know
I guess this wild wanderlust just got out of control
Wish I could apologize and come in from the cold

[Refrain]
"Where are you going?" or "Where you've been?"
Questions that you’ll never ask again

[Verse 2]
I heard the words, I took my turn, another eulogy
Not sure I can hang if this is how it’s going to be
We reminisce on innocence then plunge into the sea
The Super 8 keeps flickering with choppy memories

[Refrain]
Spent decades in search of what meant so much to you
Then sold the whole collection because the rent was due

[Verse 3]
You clenched your fist and threw the dish and called me Peter Pan
Your aim’s not very accurate and I thank God for that
Although I told you many times I'm not much of a man
You held out hope believing that at least I might pretend
[Chorus]
Vacuumed up all of the fairy dust
Held Savasana on the floor
Just felt like dying when you thought of us
You clapped your hands and hoped for an encore

[Refrain]
So young and sunburnt, we walked on an empty beach
The surface was so shiny with nothing underneath

[Verse 4]
There’s tulips in the wheelbarrow, there’s cherries in the tree
There’s a comet in the sky at least one night a century
And I will always wait for you if you will wait for me
Like a baby or apocalypse that we will never see

[Chorus 2]
Little infant in a plastic box
Shedding incubator tears
She doesn’t know yet what a comet does
You’re approaching, even as you disappear

[Chopped Outro]
We used to have these, like, bands
There were thousands of them
Maybe you're alone, maybe you're not
Doesn't always matter
(Consider the source)
Sorry baby, I was dreaming of you
You were in my dreams
You want me? (I need you)
Yes, I love you
How much you love me, man?
(I do not talk about that
I think I will turn the microphone off)
