I believe this song can envoke amazing feelings! However this a depressing song with a hint of hopoefullness!
Jon uses the nightime to describe his loneliness. At night things are often quiet and it can be a very lonely time. Also at night, the only thing you can see see sometimes are satelittes in the night.
However, lyrics like
"Are you watching over me tonight" and "Are you listening?
I'm desperate.
Sendin' out an S.O.S.
'Cause I'm lost I must confess
Throw a lifeline
I'm down here drownin'
In the deepest part of me"
I believe refers to God. And the more I listen the more I feel that he is actually singing this song to God as a plea for help. He needs someone or . . . something in his life to save him! But he is hopeful . . "I need to know you're out there..."
I think most people have experienced feelings like this where they are searching for something to save them.
