Lyric

Seventeen satellites above our heads

We were lying on garage rooftops instead

Talking big about escape

Drawing futures on mixtapes

Silver moon on your cheekbone

You said I’ll never be alone

Every breath was cold and sweet

Syncopated heartbeats

We were dreaming bigger than the sky

Never thinking we could say goodbye

Every star a promise bright

Floating in electric night

Seventeen satellites in orbit around

Spinning like our love, never touching ground

Oh la la, can’t you see

You were gravity to me

Seventeen satellites in neon skies

Shining in your reckless eyes

Even if the stars depart

You’re still orbiting my heart

Sneaking out at half past ten

Writing songs about pretend

Arcade lights and purple smoke

Every single word you spoke

We were louder than the bass

Time was something we’d outpace

Every second felt so wide

With you right by my side

Every little laugh would echo far

Like a shooting teenage star

We were infinite and free

Dancing in velocity

Seventeen satellites in orbit around

Spinning like our love, never touching ground

Oh la la, can’t you see

You were gravity to me

Seventeen satellites in neon skies

Shining in your reckless eyes

Even if the stars depart

You’re still orbiting my heart

Now the sky feels twice as far

But I still know where you are

When the kick drum fills the air

I can feel you everywhere

Seventeen satellites glowing above

Teenage dreams and reckless love

Oh la la, from the start

You’re still orbiting my heart
