Satellites
Ben Jaimen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I am on the ground
you and I
side by side
Head up in the clouds
I see my life, flashing by
they call us reckless
but we are free
the night is young
and so are we
and we turn it up 'til we lose it
screaming up to the sky
we're high
tonight we're satellites
dancin' on the skyline
way beyond our timeline
tonight we're like satellites
livin' for the first time
we can do this all night
tonight we're going-
tonight we're going-
tonight we're going-
tonight we're like satellites
put your heart on mine
face to face
my favourite place
we are over minds
there's no time in space
it's drift away
they call us reckless
but we are free
the night is young
and so are we
and we turn it up 'til we lose it
screaming up to the sky
we're high
tonight we're like satellites
dancin' on the skyline
way beyond our timeline
tonight we're like satellites
livin' for the first time
we can do this all night
tonight we're going-
tonight we're going-
tonight we're going-
tonight we're like satellites
aaaah
there's no words but aaaah aah
aaaah
there's no words but aaaah aah
like satellites
like satellites
tonight we're like satellites
dancin' on the skyline
way beyond our timeline
tonight we're like satellites
livin' for the first time
we can do this all night
tonight we're going-
tonight we're going-




tonight we're going-
tonight we're like satellites

Overall Meaning

The song "Satellites" by Ben Jaimen is a pop song that celebrates living in the moment and being free from constraints. The first verse describes the singer on the ground, but with their head in the clouds, reflecting on their life as it passes by. The chorus expresses the liberty and exhilaration felt when someone decides to embrace their reckless side and let go of inhibitions. The phrase "we're high" can be interpreted both as feeling euphoric and being elevated high above the ground like a satellite in space. The bridge of the song speaks about the connection between two people and how they are in sync with one another, and how time seems to stand still when they are together. The song ends on an instrumental break that incorporates vocalizations, as if the singer can't find the words to express the feelings they are experiencing.


Line by Line Meaning

I am on the ground
I'm currently standing on the earth


you and I
You and I are together


side by side
We are standing next to each other


Head up in the clouds
We are daydreaming and imagining things


I see my life, flashing by
I feel like my life is passing me by quickly


they call us reckless
Others think we are careless and take unnecessary risks


but we are free
We choose to live our lives without restraint or control from others


the night is young
It's still early in the evening


and so are we
We are young and full of energy


and we turn it up 'til we lose it
We party hard until we are exhausted


screaming up to the sky
We shout and make noise in celebration


we're high
We're feeling euphoric


tonight we're satellites
We feel weightless and free like a satellite


dancin' on the skyline
We are dancing with no constraints and no limits


way beyond our timeline
We are living in the moment without worrying about the future or the past


livin' for the first time
We are experiencing something new and exciting


we can do this all night
We have the energy and desire to keep the party going


tonight we're going-
We're getting ready to have a good time


aaaah
We are making sounds of excitement and happiness


there's no words but aaaah aah
It's hard to describe how we feel, but we are enjoying the moment


like satellites
We feel free, weightless, and unrestricted
