You shook my soul, as Halley struck the sky You said it was the last time for your life The pale little trail wouldn't know you're missing Next time it arrives I held your hand, maybe a little too tight See I was young then, and I thought a wish could re-write The patterns of life, set the grim parts glowing We'll all stay frozen in time But we'll be back one day, with you a little more grey And I'll leave one arm spare, for my own 'little bear' And we'll gaze a while until the lights leave You said it's been there for millions of years I was already small, but I felt myself shrink The rain chose to pour and we went in slowly You waved goodbye But we'll be back one day, with you a little more grey And I'll leave one arm spare, for my own 'little bear' And we'll gaze a while until the lights leave The rain chose to pour and we went in slowly You waved goodbye
