Late one night when the wind was still | |
Daddy brought the baby to the window sill | |
To see a bit of heaven shoot across the sky | |
The one and only time Daddy saw it fly | |
It came from the east just as bright as a torch | |
The neighbors had a party on their porch | |
Daddy rocked the baby, Mother said "amen" | |
When Halley came to visit in nineteen ten | |
Now back then Jackson was a real small town | |
And it's not every night a comet comes around | |
It was almost eighty years since its last time through | |
So I bet your mother would've said "amen" too | |
As its tail stretched out like a stardust streak | |
The papers wrote about it every day for a week | |
They wondered where it's going and where it's been | |
When Halley came to Jackson in 1910 | |
Now Daddy told the baby sleeping in his arms | |
To dream a little dream of a comet's charms | |
And he made a little wish as she slept so sound | |
In nineteen eighty-six that wish came around | |
It came from the east, just as bright as a torch | |
She saw it in the sky from her daddy's porch | |
As heavenly sent as it was back then | |
When Halley came to Jackson in nineteen ten | |
Late one night when the wind was still |
