Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'll take your time
I've used up all of mine
Down this road
Roll down the window
It's okay, we'll just follow the shine

'Cause sometimes you just know, you know, you know
Sometimes you just go, you go, you go
When it's right, it's right, it's right
Are we a star? Are we a satellite?

I could love you if you let me
But love, you gotta let me
Love, you gotta let me
I could love you if you let me
But love, you gotta let me
Gotta let me

I'll be your hero
If you need someone to save you
To the bone, to the marrow
When it's cold, I will lay with you

'Cause sometimes you just know, you know, you know
Sometimes you just go, you go, you go
When it's right, it's right, it's right
Are we a star? Are we a satellite?

I could love you if you let me
But love, you gotta let me
Love, you gotta let me
I could love you if you let me
But love, you gotta let me
Gotta let me
Gotta let me

'Cause sometimes you just know, you know, you know
Sometimes you just go, you go, you go
When it's right, it's right, it's right
Are we a star? Are we a satellite?
Are we a satellite?
Are we a satellite?
Are we a satellite?
Are we a satellite, ay yeah, ay yeah

I could love you if you let me
But love, you gotta let me
Love, you gotta let me
I could love you if you let me
But love, you gotta let me
Gotta let me

Are we a satellite?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Sara Hartman's song "Satellite" convey the idea of taking risks in love and being willing to give it all, but also in the end, realizing that sometimes you have to let go and move on. In the first verse, the singer acknowledges that they have taken up all of their partner's time and are now willing to follow their lead. The chorus repeats the questions "Are we a star? Are we a satellite?" to affirm that what may have started as something bright and promising could turn into orbiting around each other without aiming at a higher goal.


In the second verse, the singer commits themselves to being their partner's hero and standing by their side no matter what, even when it's cold. The message is that love requires trust and letting go of control to let the other person be seen and support them when needed. Finally, the chorus repeats the question "Are we a satellite?", emphasizing the uncertainty of where the relationship is headed. The song's upbeat rhythm and harmonies make it inspiring, with lyrics that reflect the ideal balance between conviction and surrender.

I'll take your time
I need your attention and time to make up for the time I've already taken from you


I've used up all of mine
I've already spent all the time I had for myself and now need yours


Down this road
On this journey we're on together


Roll down the window
Let's enjoy the ride and the view outside


It's okay, we'll just follow the shine
It doesn't matter where we end up, as long as we keep following the light that guides us


'Cause sometimes you just know, you know, you know
There are times when you have a gut feeling and you just know without any doubt


Sometimes you just go, you go, you go
Sometimes you have to take a leap of faith and just go for it


When it's right, it's right, it's right
Things will fall into place and feel right when they are meant to be


Are we a star? Are we a satellite?
Are we meant to shine on our own or follow someone else's lead?


I could love you if you let me
I am capable of loving you if you are open to it


But love, you gotta let me
But you need to give me the chance to show you my love

When it's cold, I will lay with you
I'll be there to provide warmth and comfort when you need it


Are we a satellite, ay yeah, ay yeah
Are we just floating around aimlessly without direction or purpose?
