She's Like A Comet
Jebediah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Starting a fire, secret admirers
Stolen exchanges, measured denial
I hope you come around
Coming and going, every moment
Falls through the sky, erupting and glowing
I hope you come around
I hope you come around
Just like something comes out of nothing
She ain't the done thing
Yeah she's different

Nervous and twitching, sparks and emissions
Keeping a finger on the ignition
I hope you come around
Brother to sister, sister to brother
Far and away, orbiting each other
I hope you come around
I hope you come around

Just like something comes out of nothing
She ain't the done thing
Yeah she's different
Oh she's like a comet
Oh she's like a comet
Oh she's like a comet
Yeah she's different

Nervous and twitching, sparks and emissions
Keeping her finger on the ignition
I hope you come around
Coming and going, every moment
Falls through the sky, erupting and glowing
I hope you come around
I hope you come around

Just like something comes out of nothing
She ain't the done thing
Yeah she's different
Oh she's like a comet
Oh she's like a comet
Oh she's like a comet
Yeah she's different
Yeah she's different




Yeah she's different
Yeah she's different
