Recovering The Satellites Lyrics

Gonna get back to basics

Guess I'll start it up again 

I'm falling' from the ceiling 

You're falling from the sky now and then 

Maybe you were shot down in pieces 

Maybe I slipped in between 

But we were gonna be the wildest people they ever hoped to see 

Just you and me 

So why'd you come home to this sleepless town 

It's a lifetime commitment 

Recovering the satellites 

All anybody really wants to know is... 

When you gonna come down

Your mother recognizes all you're desperate displays 

And she watches as her babies drift violently away 

'Til they see themselves in telescopes 

Do you see yourself in me? 

We're such crazy babies, little monkey

We're so fucked up, you and me 

So why'd you come home to this faithless town 

Where we make a lifetime commitment 

To recovering the satellites 

And all anybody really wants to know is...

When are you gonna come down 

She sees shooting stars and comet tails 

She's got heaven in her eyes 

She says I don't need to be an angel 

But I'm nothing if I'm not this high 

But we only stay in orbit 

For a moment of time 

And then you're everybody's satellite 

I wish that you were mine 

So why'd you come home to this angels town

It's a lifetime decision 

Recovering the satellites 

Everybody really knows for sure... 

That you're gonna come down 

That you're gonna come down
