[Intro]
A fleeting flash across the night,
a whisper in the dark
You come back like a comet,
reigniting that lost spark
But every time you fly so high,
I hesitate to leap
Caught in the orbit of love,
afraid of the fall so deep (so deep - so far)
[Verse 1]
Once you were my sky, my brightest star in view
Left me in the dawn, with skies too gray and blue
You circle in my mind,
a celestial dance so slight
A momentary flash, then gone into the night
(So deep - oh so far)
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time you come around,
I feel the pull again
A cosmic reunion, but I brace for the pain
Will I take the chance or let you drift away?
Caught between the love I need and the fears I say
[Chorus]
You're the one that got away,
a comet in my sky
Burning bright (oh so fucking bright)
then fading fast,
so elusive,
so high (oh so high)
Maybe this time I’ll leap,
Reach for the burning plane
Or stay on the ground,
watch you burn bright again
(Oh it burns so hard -so deep)
(So fast)
[Verse 2]
Your exit’s so sudden, like the night’s cold wind
A reminder of the love that I’d only just begun
You come back in a blaze,
lights flicker and ignite
But the fear of the fall keeps me from the flight
[Pre-Chorus]
Every time you circle close,
I hope you'll stay a while
But my hesitation holds me back in denial
Do I chase the comet or let it just disappear?
cling to the hope, or surrender to fear?
[Chorus]
You're the one that got away,
a comet in my sky
Burning bright, (so bright)
then fading fast,
so elusive,
so high (so fucking high)
Maybe this time I’ll leap,
reach for the burning plane
Or stay on the ground,
watch you burn bright again
[Bridge]
Luminous and fleeting,
I wait for your return
A dance of shadows,
Love’s eternal burn
But the leap’s so heavy,
the risk so vast
Will I hold on tight or let you pass?
[Outro]
You come back like a comet,
a flash in the night
Maybe someday I’ll leap,
embrace the light
Until then I’ll watch,
with hope and with fear
The one that got away,
still so near
(So fucking near - so deep)
