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
