The Comet's Tail Lyrics

Listen to my story if you like disasters
Ice wind and thunderstorms, this one's got it all
When I fell in love
I rode around on rainbows
But as you may have guessed
They all got repossessed.

Oh what a cold surprise
To gaze into electric eyes
And understand
That I could never hope to catch that comet's tail

She burst into my life, like a rocket through my window
Dangerous and strange, my head was rearranged
But her velocity and her perpetual motion
Left me miles behind
And that was when it died

Oh what a cold surprise
To gaze into electric eyes
And understand
That I could never hope to catch that comet's tail

Well I could never live that life
No I could never live that life
No I could never live that life
Never live that life

No I could never live that life
Never live that life
No I could never live that life
Never live that life

No I could never live that life
Never live that life
No I could never live that life
Never live that life

[spoken interlude]

Oh what a cold surprise
To gaze into electric eyes
And understand
That I could never hope to catch that comet's tail
