Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The lights are out in the city tonight
So close your eyes, gaze up at the heavens
And see if you can point me out

If I could have one wish tonight
I'd wish upon a satellite
To bring me back to you
We spend our whole lives searching for
All the things we think we want
And never really knowing what we have

So many paths that we can take
To bring us to our destiny
Gaze up at the heavens
And see if you can point me out

If I could have one wish tonight
I'd wish upon a satellite
To bring me back to you
We spend our whole lives searching for
All the things we think we want
And never really knowing what we have





Be careful what you wish for
These stars are fading out

Where does one go to get an art job?

@dustyeyer3710

Artists shouldnt have to give to NY, New York should be giving to artists. Nice video, but we all know these cities have no place for artists.

@nonwilson5587

Really? Ny city is not the place to get an art job?

@Brownieloveyah
