I lived a long rutted road Where the nighttime fell like a heavy load And the firmament was fixed and still Above the dark of Bunker Hill I love the twinkling of the lights I'm watching for a satellite The shooting stars fall way too fast They burn so bright, and they never last And the planets pa** as slow as d**h Across the sky from East to West I love the twinkling of the lights
I'm watching for a satellite No movement in that field of stars Set in time and distance far And from horizon's edge, a light A spark of man in lonely flight Alone among the heavenly host With a metal heart, directed ghost And all the glory all around Eyes firmly fixed upon the ground I recognise that lonely light Reflected from a satellite
