Lyrics
Miles lives next door on the cul-de-sac
Two years older, always got my back
At first he hated me, now we're best friends
But I keep a secret that never ends
We watch Sagitta carve up the night
Under those stars everything feels right
When will Cupid finally hit him?
When will that arrow turn toward us and land in him?
Parents head out, say they'll be late
Hire a sitter, perfect bait
I act annoying, push every nerve
Tell her, "If he loved you, he'd propose by now, right?"
She snaps, sends me off, slams the door
"Stay in your room," I couldn't want more
That was the plan, the signal, the cue
Window slides open, I'm gone like I flew
Miles lives next door on the cul-de-sac
Two years older, always got my back
At first he hated me, now we're best friends
But I keep a secret that never ends
We watch Sagitta carve up the night
Under those stars everything feels right
When will Cupid finally hit him?
When will that arrow turn toward us and land in him?
Sprint through the grass, climb the ladder fast
Treehouse glowing like it knows my past
He says "Password?" I whisper "Sagitta"
Used to be "boys rule," guess we're bigger than that now, huh?
Now it's constellations, changing each night
He hands me a pendant, silver and light
I slide my hand into his, barely breathe
He laces his fingers, right back into me
Best night of my life… then red, then blue
Lights flashing hard, split the stars in two
I run back home, heart falling through
Officer kneels, says words I never knew
"There was an accident… I'm so sorry"
"My parents didn't make it," end of the story
Best day of my life shattered forever
Sagitta still shines… but nothing feels better
