Ode to a Satellite

And there you are Revolving, slowly, around a superior body Aligned in time, with rhythmic grace, your grand orbital space A lulling melody, this massive dance of gravity And how you glow with energy, a borrowed gift you share for free (Choir) You are so mesmerising, shimmering above the dark horizon A reminder of the brighter times when the world's awake and we feel alive And we feel alive And so you gleam A celestial beauty, reflecting lavishly Upon us all you shed your smile, demurely drifting above our skies A beacon, shining down, a glimpse of hope piercing nightfall's shroud A reminder of the brighter times when the world's awake and we feel alive (Choir) High in the firmament within the centre of your glistening canopy Oh, how you glow with energy, a borrowed gift you share for free You share for free Overload emotion A roaring elegy Exploding ardour Uncontainable reverie And as the dawn heralds the new day Within the light you will hide your face Yet your presence still remains Oceanic tides whispering your name A testament to all you are You radiantly outshine the stars A luminiferous purveyor of calm Equanimity in the Darkest hour, your tranquil balm, a gentle wonder, you share for free (Choir) Oh, how you glow with energy, a borrowed gift you share for free you share for free
