After five thousand days you’re back in my life
Like a visiting comet making your way as a passer-by

I’m caught in your cosmic display,  wanting this forever
For I don’t know when I’ll see you again… Make it not never

Collide into me so that we can fuse
Your last visit left us with an emotional bruise

Your forgiving soul orbited back to me
Gravity’s pull was constantly at work, effortlessly

Five thousand days somehow feels like only one yesterday
Will you fly off into darkness or decide to stay?

Should you stick around and continue smiling
I will keep you safe with love piling and continue fallin’ in

You didn’t know where you were headed
With the fleeting memory of me in your bed

I knew you were out there, I thought you were circling someone new
Allow me to grab my telescope to get a better look at you

Don’t mimic Halley’s behavior, stick around for awhile
I know you’re tired, no need to run, just relax, look at me, and smile
