I watched Halley's comet got by From a backyard in Indooroopolly It was cold, it was autumn '86 We drunk the rest of your gin You could have done anything But don't play forever now The meteor shower caught us all by surprise And how'd we get to here? And how are we going home? Well I don't know I don't know Walking past the deserted agency I stopped the cab and tried to see What was that place you lived before? How'd you get all those bruises? I don't care what your excuse is Don't play forever now The meteor shower caught me right between the eyes And how'd we get to here? And how are we going home? Well I don't know I don't know I feel like you've intrigued me for centuries I love you just the way you are Just let those comets go by They shouldn't mess with you There's just one thing That I would like to say to you Oh please don't play forever now The meteor shower caught me right between the eyes And how'd we get to here? And how are we going home? Well I don't know I don't know I don't know I don't know
