Satellite
Chasing Dreams Beyond Earth: Def Leppard's Satellite
Lyrics
Midnight, bright light, shining from the sky
Depicts the presence of a bright light in the sky at midnight.
Circulating round the earth, trying to catch your eye
Describes the light's movement around the earth, attempting to attract attention.
Lowdown, showdown, trying to break away
Suggests a struggle or conflict, an attempt to break free from something.
Stay on course, feel the force, careful what you say
Advises caution, staying focused, and being mindful of words/actions.
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah can't you feel that it's real?
Expresses the intensity of the situation and asks if it's perceivable as genuine.
Ooh yeah, ooh yeah set your sights on the satellite
Encourages aiming or focusing attention on the satellite, emphasizing its significance.
Me and you, rendezvous, we've got to take the chance
Highlights the need for both individuals to take a risk or opportunity.
I'm paralyzed, I'm hypnotized, I'm in some kinda trance
Portrays a state of being unable to move or act due to fascination or enchantment.
Hazy, crazy, this thing's lost control
Describes a chaotic or confusing state of affairs.
It's got the power, it's got the strength to steal away your soul
