Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I follow you everywhere you go, baby.
The pain as light has come to wake you
But you will never realize
That I inspire the dreams that guide you baby.
You're a half a world away
But in my mind I whisper every single word you say.
You pray to me, your lucky star, your singing satellite.
Your singing satellite
You say a prayer
You say a prayer
You're a half a world away
But in my mind I whisper every single word you say.
And before you sleep at night
You pray to me, your lucky star, your singing satellite.
I follow the winds that bring the cold, baby,
I light a fire in your soul, baby.
The lightest touch of feathers falling
My love may be invisible
But I inspire the dreams that guide you, baby
You're a half a world away
But in my mind I whisper every single word you say.
And before you sleep at night
You pray to me, your lucky star, your singing satellite.
The lyrics to OceanLab's song Satellite tell the story of a long-distance relationship in which one person follows their loved one from afar, inspiring their dreams and being their lucky star. The opening lines, "My love is like first steps in this snow, baby, I follow you everywhere you go, baby" convey the idea of the singer being there with their loved one, even if not physically. The pain referred to in the second line alludes to the struggles and difficulties that the couple faces while being separated.
Despite the distance, the singer still plays an intimate role in the other person's life, with every word being whispered and every prayer being said. They say "You're a half a world away, but in my mind, I whisper every single word you say. And before you sleep at night, you pray to me, your lucky star, your singing satellite." The reference to praying to a "singing satellite" suggests that the lover is the inspiration for their dreams and motivation to push forward.
The lyrics also refer to the idea of lighting a fire in the soul of the loved one and being a feather-soft touch. These lines metaphorically convey the role played by the partner in keeping the flame of love and hope alive as they experience the long-distance relationship.
