The title of the track has been interpreted in several different ways. “Sine” is pronounced like “sign” alluding to a “Sign from above” keeping in the theme of comparing the sound with God. “Sine” has also been interpreted as being a play on the word “sin”.

[Verse 1: Lady Gaga] When I was young, I prayed for lightning My mother said it would come and find me I found myself without a prayer I lost my love and no one cared When I was young, I prayed for lightning [Pre-Chorus: Lady Gaga] Yeah, I looked with my face up to the sky But I saw nothing there, no, no, nothing there Yeah, I stared while my eyes filled up with tears But there was nothing there, no, no, nothing [Chorus: Lady Gaga] I heard one sine from above (Oh) I heard one sine from above (Oh) Then the signal split in two The sound created stars like me and you Before there was love, there was silence I heard one sine And it healed my heart, heard a sine [Post-Chorus: Lady Gaga] Healed my heart, heard a sine Healed my heart, heard a sine [Verse 2: Elton John & Both] When I was young, I felt immortal And not a day went by without a struggle I lived my days just for the nights I lost myself under the lights When I was young, I felt immortal [Pre-Chorus: Lady Gaga & Elton John] Yeah, I looked with my face up to the sky But I saw nothing there, no, no, nothing there Yeah, I stared while my eyes filled up with tears But there was nothing there, no, no nothing [Chorus: Lady Gaga & Elton John, Lady Gaga] I heard one sine from above (Oh) I heard one sine from above (Oh) Then the signal split in two The sound created stars like me and you Before there was love, there was silence I heard one sine And it healed my heart, heard a sine [Post-Chorus: Lady Gaga & Elton John] Healed my heart, heard a sine Healed my heart, heard a sine [Bridge: Lady Gaga, Elton John & Both] Then the signal split in two The sound created stars like me and you Before there was love, there was silence I heard one sine And it healed my heart, heard a sine [Outro: Lady Gaga] Healed my heart Healed my Heart, heard a sine Healed my Heart, heard a sine
