Darkening skies Coming this way Falling behind Into nothing But if you lead I will follow A thousand miles away I will be your Apollo Alone in outer space Satellite Shine on me tonight I will be your gravity I will stay and never leave My satellite Are you here tonight? Shine your light and set me free Take the darkness out of me Shine on me Shine on me Blinded I wait The end is forming You are my fate Give me warning If you lead I will follow A thousand miles away I will be your Apollo Alone in outer Satellite Shine on me tonight I will be your gravity I will stay and never leave My satellite Are you here tonight? Shine your light and set me free Take the darkness out of me Shine on me Shine on me Far across the emptiness I walk the night And search the silence in the dark you left behind I seek the stars above the world to be the guides But they all pale against the light in your eyes In your eyes And I won't suppose to know why you walked away But I can feel you pushing through beyond the space To send your energy to me and I'll push through Send your signal home and bring me back to you Satellite Shine on me tonight I will be your gravity I will stay and never leave My satellite Are you here tonight? Shine your light and set me free Take the darkness out of me Shine on me Shine on me
