SATELLITES
Rickie Lee Jones

We were born forever

We are twinned in a fugitive mind

Friends should stay together and

Light the world with the fugitive kind


So you keep talking in many languages

Telling us the way you feel

Don't stop confiding in the road you're on

Don't quit, you're walking satellites


Walking satellites

She laughs satellites

A room filled with satellites

Ahh, walking satellites


We were born forever

Tunneled into the fugitive night

Friends must stay together

Code the world with the fugitive light


I just saw you walking

Ice was reading fortunes by the moonlight

casting runes on the rooftops and alleys

You'll never read it more than you will tonight


So you keep talking in many languages

Telling us the way you feel

Don't stop confiding in the road you're on

Don't quit, you're walking satellites


Walking satellites

She laughs satellites

A room filled with satellites

Ahh, walking satellites
