Satellite Sleepover

Paroles de « Satellite Sleepover »

Verse

I got a call from a satellite at a quarter after two
It said nobody's awake down there except for me and you
So I packed a paper suitcase with a pillow and a plum
And a flashlight and a fistful of the things I might become

Pre-Chorus

And the ladder wasn't ladder-shaped, it was more of a song
But I climbed it anyway and it held me all night long

Chorus

It's a satellite sleepover, high above the weather
Trading tiny secrets in the quiet altogether
Oh the atmosphere is glowing like a nightlight in the hall
And the Earth is just a marble and I'm not afraid at all

Verse

We watched a hundred cities turn their little lamps to gold
And the satellite admitted that it gets a little cold
So I gave it half my blanket and I gave it half my name
And it promised it would orbit past my window all the same

Chorus

It's a satellite sleepover, high above the weather
Trading tiny secrets in the quiet altogether
Oh the atmosphere is glowing like a nightlight in the hall
And the Earth is just a marble and I'm not afraid at all

Bridge

When they find my empty bedroom they will probably assume
That a boy can't be a comet, that a comet can't have a room
But I'll wave from the little window of the wandering machine
With the whole entire evening in between

Chorus

It's a satellite sleepover, high above the weather
Trading tiny secrets in the quiet altogether
Oh the atmosphere is glowing like a nightlight in the hall
And the Earth is just a marble and I'm not afraid at all
