Satellites

Sunday night

Silent by the pilot light

All the stories, all the endless fantasies I wanna write

By your side

Searching through the blue and white,

Seashells on the beach, the finest angel wings and ammonite

Half-moon smile,

Weekends on the Emerald Isle,

You and me, a glowing sea and memories of a lonely child

Running wild

Nothing left to reconcile

Stars align and good things come around every once in a while

And I know that this can't last forever

I know that you are far too brilliant and bright

There are futures that we will not weather

But for now, we'll be alright,

Flying high like satellites

Stars and waves and satellites

Rising tides

Higher than I realized

Oh the ocean in your eyes it had me hypnotized

Mesmerized

All the thoughts that we've disguised

Tell ourselves we'll stay together, who's to say we need goodbyes?

Have we fallen

Fallen so far

That we can't

Remember who we are

All these years

And all these fears

Hold back the water and the tears

No more

Sitting by the golden shore

Holding hands and holding fast to what we can't ignore

Love and war

Fighting back the rain before

All the ocean comes alive, the power of the raging storm

There are moment that we will not weather

I know that we will one day give up the fight

But let's make this moment last forever

Take my heart, and hold it tight

Flying like we're satellites
