lyrics

You’re here for a second and then you’re gone
Get my hopes up then you’re moving on
I can see you shining ‘til the break of dawn
If you could only see what you’re doing to me
When you play me like a pawn

You’re a comet
Streaking across the sky
Leaving dust in your wake
Making every heart shake
They all love to see you fly

I can see you coming from a mile away
I know even sooner that you ain’t gonna stay
Like every time before you’re gonna lead me astray
Even though I know how soon you’re gonna go,
I’m the one you’re gonna betray

You’re a comet
Streaking across the sky
With your face all aglow
You let everybody know that it’s you
Who’s up so high

You’ll always have your 15 minutes in the sun
Stay around ‘til your victory lap is done
You might even hint that I’ll always be your one
But you’re flying by so fast that we’re never gonna last
The time you’ll leave for me, there’ll be none.

You’re a comet
Streaking across the sky
Like a flash in the pan
You do everything you can to my heart
To make me cry

Wish and hope and pray that I’ll get over you
It always seems to be that way ‘til the next time that you’re through

So I tell myself that you might stay
‘Cos it’s all that I can do
But we both know that ain’t true

You’re a comet
Streaking across the sky
Leaving me in your wake
Making my heart ache
Every time you say goodbye

You know there comes a time when you won’t be coming back
You’ll take your final spin around your little track
And fling yourself to outer space so black
Unless you slam into the ground, killing everyone around
When you hit the sun with a smack

You’re a comet
Streaking across the sky
But you’re gonna burn out
And you know I’m gonna shout
When it’s time for you to die
