There's a comet in the sky tonight Look how it brightens the clear night's sky How it shines for everyone tonight I wish that I could shine like that tonight Where country boundaries are all out of sight I'd shine the same for everyone tonight There's a comet heading north tonight I bet the Lebanese can already see it's light I wonder if they freeze to see it tonight And do they go back to be as children tonight And to the brightness give up all their strife And all our troubles are gone tonight That's how it figured in my mind And for me that's pretty just for a while From where I stand that's what I see How many people gaze up high like me And the comet sees no borders Just catches every pair of eyes Who wish they had a guiding light And I wish I had a guiding light A guiding light I wish I had a guiding light There's a comet in the sky tonight There's a comet in the sky tonight There's a comet in the sky tonight
