Cecilia And The Satellite

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I lock myself in a hotel room

Been waiting 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 17

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

Through 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 cafe crawled through Amsterdam

I've 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

And you're the sky

And you're the sky

I'm the satellite

And you're the sky

And you're the sky
