Lyrics
I feel like I'm in outer space, babe
Feeling as if in a distant, unfamiliar place or situation
'Cause that's how I feel when I'm with you
Emphasizing the overwhelming, extraordinary sensation when together
I close my eyes and begin to wonder
Reflecting and pondering about the past and your presence in it
Where you have been all my life
Questioning where the person has been all throughout one's life
I feel like I've seen Halley's comet
Comparing the rarity of love to the infrequency of seeing Halley's comet
'Cause this love is once in a lifetime, my dear
Expressing that this love is exceedingly unique and exceptional
'Cause you're a shooting star and I'm your telescope
Metaphorically, the person is likened to a shooting star, and the singer is compared to a telescope observing them
Light years away but you're still not far from home
Despite the emotional distance, the person still feels close to home
I'm just watching my wildest dreams come true
Experiencing the realization and fulfillment of one's most extravagant desires
Wildest dreams come true
Reiteration of experiencing the fulfillment of one's biggest dreams
I must have done something good in my life
Expressing gratitude for having the person in their life
Something good to have deserved you
Feeling deserving of the person's presence due to past actions
God has blessed me with your otherworldly love
Believing that the love received is beyond the ordinary and divine in nature
But I'm scared you will drift away not to be seen again
Expressing fear of losing the person's presence
But you pick my face up and you say "I love you,"
Reassurance of love and care provided by the person
And my cares and worries drift so far away
Feeling relieved and free from worries due to the person's love
I feel like I've seen Halley's comet (feel like I'm in outer space)
Reiterating the feeling of being in an unknown place due to love
'Cause this love is once in a lifetime, my dear (when I'm with you)
Re-emphasizing the extraordinary nature of love experienced together
'Cause you're a shooting star and I'm your telescope
Continuing the metaphor of the person being a shooting star and the singer being the observer
Light years away but you're still not far from home
Feeling emotionally connected despite physical distance
I'm just watching my wildest dreams come true
Witnessing the fulfillment of dreams
Wildest dreams come true
Reiterating the experience of fulfilling extravagant dreams
Your gravitational pull has got me
Feeling deeply influenced and drawn by the person
And I'll be yours as long as you'll have me
Expressing commitment to the person for as long as possible
I'll be there drifting behind your tail
Willingness to follow and support the person
We'll travel the universe you and me
Expressing a desire for a journey together through life's experiences
We'll see everything there is to see
Anticipation and excitement for exploring everything together
I'm awed by your mystery
Being fascinated and intrigued by the person's enigmatic nature
You're everything to me
Emphasizing the person's immense importance
The planets and stars they seem to align
Feeling that fate has aligned to keep their paths together
Our paths forever will be intertwined
Believing that their destinies are intertwined forever
I feel like I've seen Halley's comet (feel like I'm in outer space)
Reiterating the feeling of being in an unknown place due to love
'Cause this love is once in a lifetime, my dear (when I'm with you)
Re-emphasizing the extraordinary nature of love experienced together
'Cause you're a shooting star and I'm your telescope
Continuing the metaphor of the person being a shooting star and the singer being the observer
Light years away but you're still not far from home
Feeling emotionally connected despite physical distance
I'm just watching my wildest dreams come true
Witnessing the fulfillment of dreams
Wildest dreams come true
Reiterating the experience of fulfilling extravagant dreams
For me and you
Expressing the fulfillment of dreams for both individuals
