With the satellite I call,
I've got:
- Willie's "Hello Walls"
- your answering machine
Your voice is on the line,
but it's from another time, another belief
You are far off there, in the wine red sunset of the west
and I am so afraid that which separates is diminished.
I wanna be there when it falls
I'll keep you in my thoughts
I'll hold you in my heart 'til I come back again.
Satellites will fall and time will surely crawl for you and me
While my starry night is your afternoon sunlight across the sea
You are far off there in the depth of blackness all around
I'm so sorry babe to be so far away when your sun goes down
I wanna be there when it falls
I'm gonna keep you in my thoughts
I'll hold you in my heart 'til I come back again.
