Текст песни Halley Came to Jackson - Mary Chapin Carpenter
Late
one
night
when
the
wind
was
still
Daddy
brought
the
baby
to
the
windowsill
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
have
said
amen
too
As
its
tailed
stretched
out
like
a
stardust
streak
The
papers
wrote
about
it
every
day
for
a
week
You
wondered
where
it's
going
and
where
it's
been
When
Halley
came
to
Jackson
in
nineteen-ten
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
'round
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
And
late
one
night
when
the
wind
was
still
