Meteor

Years upon years, passing through
And we are born in just one blink of time's eye
But always captive to geography
I don't know you exist, you don't know me at all

Treading my path, day upon day
A dreamless routine I don't remember to change
9 o'clock train crossing empty tracks
And a shadow of you starts to creep through the cracks

But somewhere a door slams, a plot builds
And somewhere a missed bus, a held hand
And these paths so nearly cross

But you pass by like a meteor blazing
Fall silently into the dark
But you pass by like a meteor blazing
Fall silently into the dark

A drink turns to two, a gig that I miss
And there you are at the front with your face in the light
Turn the key in my lock, I should have stayed out
Turn to go, but I don't know it's too late

And somewhere a door slams, a plot builds
And somewhere a missed bus, a held hand
And these eyes so nearly lock

But you pass by like a meteor blazing
Fall silently into the dark
But you pass by like a meteor blazing
Fall silently into the dark

You could have hit me
You could have rammed my path
Soaked me up in fire and light
But just too late, by a matter of yards
And life splits out like glass

But you pass by like a meteor blazing
Fall silently into the dark
But you pass by like a meteor blazing
Fall silently into the dark
But you pass by like a meteor blazing
Fall silently into the dark
But you pass by like a meteor blazing
Fall silently into the dark
