lyrics

Good morning, Palomita.
It's good to have you home.
You're skinny as hell,
but your body is warm.

It hasn't been so easy.
You've been up and gone.
I sleep, I dream, I wish
that I could bring you along.

But tonight we'll ride
on the back of a satellite,
looking down at this broken world
trying to get it right.

I think I lost my way
and you're gonna be the light.
I think I lost my way
and you're gonna be the light.

I guess I'm still believing
in the Holy Ghost,
because I swear I feel you breathing
on the opposite coast.

And I tell myself
that it's all gonna be alright.
But I know I'm a beast, I'm a god,
I'm a little child.

I think I lost my way
and you're gonna be the light.
I think I lost my way
and you're gonna be the light.

Well if this whole wide world
belongs to you and I,
then we could start again
and pretend it's the first time.

I think I lost my way
and you're gonna be the light.
I think I lost my way
and you're gonna be the light.
