Cecilia and the Satellite

I locked myself in a hotel room

Then waited all night for the walls to move

I’ve loved some girls that I barely knew

I’ve made some friends, and I’ve lost some too

Crashed my car, I was seventeen

My mother in the seat riding next to me

The things I’ve learned from a broken mirror

How a face can change when a heart knows fear

For all the things my eyes have seen, the best by far is you

If I could fly, then I would know

What life looks like from up above and down below

I’d keep you safe, I’d keep you dry

Don’t be afraid, Cecilia, I’m the satellite

And you’re the sky

I’ve café crawled through Amsterdam

Been around the world with a punk rock band

And I’ve seen London, and I’ve played Japan

I’ve been knocked down, I got up again

For all the places I have been, I’m no place without you

If I could fly, then I would know

What life looks like from up above and down below

I’d keep you safe, I’d keep you dry

Don’t be afraid, Cecilia, I’m the satellite

And you’re the sky

I’m the satellite

And you’re the sky

For all the things my hands have held, the best by far is you

If I could fly, then I would know

What life looks like from up above and down below

I’d keep you safe, I’d keep you dry

Don’t be afraid, Cecilia, I’m the satellite

[02:55.03]And you’re the sky

I’m the satellite

[03:10.15]And you’re the sky
