Jamie Lubov - satellites Lyrics

When the stars come out do you feel smaller?
Reach out but the planets seem a lot farther
Most of us can recognize a longing for more
But you were just what I was looking for

When you came in my life your words felt like a promise
So it cut me so deep when I heard you were gone
It was unfathomable, the way you left me and I
Was astounded you never took the time for goodbyes

The sun is rising, are you listening?
I stand for hours 'til I'm blistering
A satellite whose message came across
With a signal lost

The blink of airplanes is placating
Radio silence so frustrating
I can pretend you're up there for a cost
For a signal lost

Shooting stars don't think of who they're leaving behind
No, she never thinks of how she could be making them cry
She's a constellation bigger than the sum of her parts
Yeah she's a fairytale whose stardust leaves behind broken hearts

I used to think I'm lucky just because I witnessed her glow
That was before I knew the pain that came with letting her go
Oh, I wonder what she's seeing from the sky up above
Was it a view so beautiful it proves that I'm not enough?

The sun is rising, are you listening?
I stand for hours 'til I'm blistering
A satellite whose message came across
"Get lost"

The sound of static leaves me reeling
Radio silence so unfeeling
A satellite whose message came across
"Get lost"
