Satellites
Derek DeRush Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's lay beneath the stars
And we can wonder who we are
And how we got put here tonight
Got a lot of work tomorrow
But I'll let your voice be my alarm
You turn to me and say

The satellites are so high up
And so am I
We both laugh and smile and say
If I had to fly I'd stay right here
Right by your side
There's no need for me to leave

I figured I would stay here for now
You got me here
Won't let my feet leave the ground
No way no way no
We could do this all night
Just talk about life and get lost in the satellites

Let's get lost in each other
And leave our worries all behind
They can search for us
But they will never find
I wanna see you open up the wondrous mind
You turn to me and say

The satellites are so high up
And so am I
We both laugh and smile and say
If I had to fly I'd stay right here
Right by your side
There's no need for me to leave

I figured I would stay here for now
You got me here
Won't let my feet leave the ground
No way no way no




We could do this all night
Just talk about life and get lost in the satellites

Overall Meaning

In Derek DeRush's song Satellites, the singer suggests getting lost in the vast expanse of the night sky with their loved one. The singer seems to be in the present moment, enjoying talking about life as they lay beneath the stars. Despite having work the next day, they want to stay in that moment and let their partner's voice be their alarm in the morning. The singer and their partner chuckle at the idea of flying among the satellites and express a desire to stay right where they are. The singer suggests that they could do this all night, just talking about life and getting lost in the satellites.


The theme of the song centers around the idea of being present and in the moment with someone you care about. The stars and satellites are being used as a metaphor for something greater than just the physical sky above us. They represent the unknown vastness of life and how small we might feel in it, but also how we can find comfort in experiencing it with someone else. The song suggests that it's important to take the time to be with our loved ones, and to disconnect from the hectic nature of our daily lives, even if it's just for a moment.


Line by Line Meaning

Let's lay beneath the stars
Let's lay down and look up at the stars


And we can wonder who we are
And we can contemplate our identities


And how we got put here tonight
And how we ended up together here tonight


Got a lot of work tomorrow
Even though we have work tomorrow


But I'll let your voice be my alarm
I'll wake up to the sound of your voice


You turn to me and say
Then you say to me


The satellites are so high up
The satellites in the sky are very high up


And so am I
And so am I, feeling elevated with happiness


We both laugh and smile and say
We both express happiness and amusement and say


If I had to fly I'd stay right here
Even if I had to leave, I'd remain by your side


Right by your side
Close to you


There's no need for me to leave
There is no reason for me to go away


I figured I would stay here for now
I have decided to remain here for now


You got me here
You have brought me to this present moment


Won't let my feet leave the ground
I won't move from here


No way no way no
Absolutely not


We could do this all night
We could be here enjoying each other's company all night


Just talk about life and get lost in the satellites
We could talk about life and let ourselves be distracted by the satellites


Let's get lost in each other
Let's completely focus on each other


And leave our worries all behind
And forget about our problems and concerns


They can search for us
Others may look for us


But they will never find
But they won't be able to locate us


I wanna see you open up the wondrous mind
I hope to see you reveal your magnificent mind


You turn to me and say
Then you say to me
