Chinese Satellite Phoebe Bridgers Lyrics in English
(Verse 1)
In the dead of night, I’m driving alone
The radio’s on, playing our favorite song
I’m lost in thoughts, my mind starts to roam
As I stare at the stars, I feel so far from home
(Chorus)
Chinese satellite, won’t you take me home tonight?
I’ve been drifting for so long, I need your guiding light
Chinese satellite, show me the way back to you
I’m searching for a connection, something that feels true
(Verse 2)
I’ve been chasing dreams, like a shooting star
But they always seem to slip right through my fingers
I’m tired of pretending, tired of playing the part
I just want to find my place, where my heart lingers
(Chorus)
Chinese satellite, won’t you take me home tonight?
I’ve been drifting for so long, I need your guiding light
Chinese satellite, show me the way back to you
I’m searching for a connection, something that feels true
(Bridge)
I’ve been wandering through this vast unknown
Hoping to find a place where I truly belong
But the world keeps spinning, and I’m left alone
I need your satellite to guide me back home
(Chorus)
Chinese satellite, won’t you take me home tonight?
I’ve been drifting for so long, I need your guiding light
Chinese satellite, show me the way back to you
I’m searching for a connection, something that feels true
(Outro)
Chinese satellite, I’m reaching out to you
In this vast universe, I hope you hear me too
Guide me back home, where my heart can reside
Chinese satellite, be my beacon in the sky
