Counting satellites Songtext

von Ian Cussick

Can yo picture the scene
There were forty thousand lights across the bay
Ans a twilight moon to shcase the day away
So the waves upon the shore can gently play

It's like a dream
Where old white candles glow to light the way
To the dusty wine of some old yesterday
Beneath an ancient castle far away

Oh but it's real
There are a hundred million stars
Up the sky
Oh here I am
Can you tell me just how far
Away they are

Hey, what a night
With a warm wind blowing north
Across the bay
To the sound of some old ghosts
From yesterday
As I sit here counting satellites tonight

How could it be
That i?m standing alone
Beneath the starlight
Oh here I am
Can you tell me just how far
Away they are
