Tail of a comet Songtext

von Crowded House

I'm on the tail of a comet shape
I see the parade, the fist that knocks them down
On the wave of emotion, yeah
I can feel it coming and my feet are off the ground
Took me into your confidence
When you ask me to, I come to your defence
And I will not fail you now
How could I

Hold on when you ride the tail of a comet
Tall ships that you sail upon like a promise
Hold on when you ride the tail of a comet

I ? to a nervous man
When I opened my eyes, he was doing a headstand
Here's a picture of my fall from grace
I tried to ignore it, but the truth was in my face
Turn around and the flash had gone
I saw you before, you turned the headlights on
On a trail, on a trail now

You got to feel good
? I say you would
Hold on when you ride the tail of a comet
Ghost ships that you sail upon like a promise
Hold on when you ride the tail of a comet
Ghost ships we'll ride upon like a promise

And I'll be dancing for good
Like a motion of woods
I sinked in all day (?)
With nothing to say
And the flashing lights
Will keep me up all night

Fly now when you ride the tail of a comet
Tall ships that you sail upon like a promise
Hold on when you ride the tail of a comet
Hold on when you ride the tail of a comet
