Haley's Comet

It’s perfect in you
The falling away, the sleeping and the dreaming, the breathing
She says, This year is gone and we’ve got a little something, and maybe
still-life angels will pray over us."
And Haley’s Comet comes shooting 'round the moon
And Haley’s a little flower, she’s just waiting to bloom
Through the winter and all through the night
She just wants the daylight
There’s something about being a little gone that takes the edge of the night
these days
It doesn’t mean anything
She says, «Slip into something I might recognize, and help me remember me, God!
I miss me.»
Chorus
So don’t let me fade away, it’s been raining since Tuesday — just another
someday
Just pull the shades down and lock up all your doors, and hide behind those
broken angels again
And shooting stars come falling from the moon
Haley’s a little flower she’s just waiting to bloom
Through the winter and all through the night
She just wants the daylight
So, don’t fall away from me
Or drift away on Sunday
Just take the ground from me
And catch my scattered eyes
Till you can feel me
And make me Shine
Chorus
She wants the daylight (4x)
