Rushing through galaxies
Waving the long fire tail behind
Illuminating the track through the stars with its celestial light
Sowing the seeds of life on every planet it sails by

Where does it come from?
Who sends it on its journey?
Who lit this mystic fire?
Where is it steering to?

Standing there
Watching the night sky
Wondering about the life outside

The comets are floating out there
some visible, some not

Their majestic bodies of ice and stone
Took a peak on every planet they passed by
What stories they could tell?
The stories I want to hear

Their arcane appearance, their bare existence
We have no explanation for
Bringing life and death on their way trough

The ones who comes back and fly away
We admire and find beautiful
These ones are bringing life

The ones who comes back and stay
Are glowing for the last time
In one regal fire together with the host
In one last tight embracement  
Extinguishing the life they brought there
Sometime long - long ago…
