Song Lyrics

"Satellites"

by Charlie Peacock
Album: No Man's Land

We danced like children
And I wore a grin that could
Fit within the sun so bright and wide

We lost ourselves in laughter
Then gorged ourselves soon after
On bread of round dimension
And cheap strawberry wine

That was, still is
One ecstatic, long chromatic evening

You could feel the pull of satellites
On that summer night
And your kiss, like a peach
Like a harvest full moon
Was the flesh that shook me
The best that ever knew me

We longed to be known
Longed to be true
Living like tomorrow might not come

The way of endless dreaming
Became the path of meaning
And the hounds of love stayed on the run

That was, still is
One ecstatic, long chromatic evening

You could feel the pull of satellites
On that summer night
And your kiss, like a peach
Like a harvest full moon
Was the flesh that shook me
The best that ever knew me

Yours Was the flesh that shook me
The best that ever knew me

That was, still is
One ecstatic, long chromatic evening

You could feel the pull of satellites
On that summer night
And your kiss, like a peach
Like a harvest full moon

Yours was the flesh that shook me
The best that ever knew me

Yours was the flesh that shook me
The best that ever knew me
