Counting Crows Recovering The Satellites (Live) 1998 Lyrics

Gonna get back to basics
Guess Ill start it up again
Im falling from the ceiling
Youre falling from the sky now and then
Maybe you were shot down in pieces
Maybe I slipped in between
But we were gonna be the wildest people they ever hoped to see
Just you and me
So whyd you come home to this sleepless town
Its a lifetime commitment
Recovering the satellites
All anybody really wants to know is...
When you gonna come down
Your mother recognizes all youre desperate displays
And she watches as her babies drift violently away
til they see themselves in telescopes
Do you see yourself in me?
Were such crazy babies, little monkey
Were so f___ed up, you and me
So whyd you come home to this faithless town
Where we make a lifetime commitment
To recovering the satellites
And all anybody really wants to know is...
When are you gonna come down
She sees shooting stars and comet tails
Shes got heaven in her eyes
She says I dont need to be an angel
But Im nothing if Im not this high
But we only stay in orbit
For a moment of time
And then youre everybodys satellite
I wish that you were mine
So whyd you come home to this angels town
Its a lifetime decision
Recovering the satellites
Everybody really knows for sure...
That youre gonna come down
That youre gonna come down
