Worked out that I probably made a mistake
For each thing I`ve done right
Just keeping it even at times
Seems to take every ounce of my might
I might`ve found gold instead of dust
I might`ve found someone to hold in trust
I may seem hard in harder times
Even though my colors are fading I stay in the lines
I can`t be the sun `cause I`d burn
As sure as I leave, I will return
The moon is too big and too bright
I can`t shine like stars but
I`ll be a satellite
I`m ready, I`m ready, I`ve already torn
All my pieces apart
Be steady, be steady instead of my usual
Fits and starts
My heart has been worn but it ain`t broke
It may hiccough and cough black smoke
It may seem old, but it still runs
Yeah my love`s got laces that won`t come undone
I can`t be the sun `cause I`d burn
As sure as I leave, I will return
The moon is too big and too bright
I can`t shine like stars but
I`ll be a satellite
Your satellite
Your satellite
Your satellite
Jupiter`s too heavy to hold
And Mars is too cold, and Venus too hot
I`d try for Saturn`s beautiful rings
I am none of these things
And I`m glad that I`m not
`Cause you`d expect a lot
I can`t be the sun `cause I`d burn
As sure as I leave, I will return
The moon is too big and too bright
I can`t shine like stars but
I`ll be a satellite
