Lyric

The clock-out bell fades away, night wind seeps through my raised collar

Between skyscrapers, crosswalks, neon paints the pavement underfoot

“Let’s take a little detour,” I slip the pocket brake free

A comet’s tail of people weaving through gaps of light

My reflection in the office windows, stretching, fading away

Slowly unlocking my heart, sax breath melts into my ears

“This is my time now,” counting anew

Following the night’s beckon, loosening laces, I step forward

We’re comets, free just for now

Drawing trails across neon skies, nameless, flowing away

Lingering warmth of good intoxication leaves stardust in my chest

Trusting only the sparkle until we return to tomorrow

I won’t say goodbye, say no good‑bye

In the swaying glass, the Milky Way flows

The sweet afterglow of this buzz, yoin & yoi play on words

Wishes reaching for the stars, reaching for the stars

Every rung climbed, laddered clouds of bar-hopping nights

Mom’s smile, strangers’ tears, sparks that vanish in a blink

Footsteps as rhythm, breath as melody

Detours, detours, detours — this is my universe

By the time we leave the last bar, the sky fades from indigo to ink

Old stories over the counter, the night we saw a comet

Whose shadow floats across your profile, constellations drawn on napkins

“See you,” Mom waves, the doorbell leaves a lingering echo

Only our footsteps echo in the alley, the crowd dissolves somewhere

Emotions left behind flutter back to my shoulders

A comet from a distant memory stretches its tail in my chest

Connecting the light that guides tomorrow with the night that wraps now

We’re comets, we don’t know where we’re headed

The trails of our detours become maps in each night sky

Last-call bells ring, a nostalgic melody drifts by

Someone’s smile pushes us toward tomorrow, onto the platform

We’re comets, in the blink of an eye

Drawing trails across neon skies, scattering showers of light

Holding tight to this sweet afterglow, returning to everyday life

But tomorrow night, we’ll surely race again as detour comets
