Dean Friedman — Wishing on a Satellite lyrics

Lyrics

Looking down on the earth’s crust, watching the last sunset
Just a sprinkling of stardust, orange and violet
And to the east in the autumn sky, blinking on and off like a firefly
Sailing south in silence like a supersonic spy…
Wishing on a satellite. Wishing on a satellite
I Wish I may I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight
Heavenly bodies hurtling through space
Orbiting oddities guarding the human race
Silver sentries of the stratosphere, trying to keep the peace on the new
frontier
Pray for their success or we’ll all disappear
Wishing on a satellite. Wishing on a satellite
I Wish I may I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight
Platinum prophets circling the earth
And the light bouncing off it announces a savior’s birth
Now’s the time for a moratorium, 'cause who can say for sure if the messiah
will ever come
And we could be bathed in darkness for the next millennium
Wishing on a satellite. Wishing on a satellite
I Wish I may I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight
