Verse
I’ve been sending out a signal
From the rooftop of my room,
Little lights across the ceiling
Spinning circles ‘round the moon.
And the radio is humming
Every song you used to know,
But the static keeps on telling me
You’re a million miles below.
Pre-chorus
Oh, can you hear me now,
Through the silver clouds?
Is there someone out there
Who can bring you down?
Chorus
You’re my satellite heart,
Turning slow in the dark,
Every night you come around
But you never stay.
Satellite heart,
We were worlds apart,
Shining down on Sunday town
Then you drift away.
Verse
There’s a letter in the mailbox
That I never sent to you,
Written on a winter morning
When the sky forgot its blue.
And the clock upon the mantel
Keeps on ticking out of time,
Like it’s waiting for a rocket
That’ll carry you back to mine.
Bridge
Ten, nine, eight, I’m counting down,
Seven, six, the world spins ‘round,
Five, four, I can see your face,
Three, two, one… lost in space.
(Orchestra crashes back in)
Chorus
You’re my satellite heart,
Turning slow in the dark,
Every night you come around
Won’t you stay this time?
Satellite heart,
Let me light the spark,
Come on down to Sunday town,
Be my northern light.
