Lyrics
Saturn Song
Words: Todd Staudinger
Music: Todd Staudinger, Chris Tocco
Fly through twilight on an angels wings
It?s almost as if your life had never been
Reach for the light that shines from up above
Feel the colors that fit you like a glove
Fly by Saturn in the summer sky
Reach out and touch the sun and feel it?s warm surprise
Hide in the mist that covers the moon
Live for the nighttime
Daylight comes too soon???
It seems they told you about some spirit land
A place to run too with the stars at your command
Take a swallow from the fountains pool
That feeds a saint, but drowns a fool.
Fly by Saturn in the summer sky
Reach out and touch the sun and feel it?s warm surprise
Hide in the mist that covers the moon
Live for the nighttime
Daylight comes too soon???
Look at those fools sleeping down below
They haven?t got a clue about the things you know
Way up here hanging in the sky
Ride a rainbow as the clouds drift by
Fly by Saturn in the summer sky
Reach out and touch the sun and feel it?s warm surprise
Hide in the mist that covers the moon
Live for the nighttime
Daylight comes too soon???
