second star from spectrum by My Dear Wormwood,

second star
still don’t know if i can say it out loud
that i’ll never see you in this crowd
singing back at me louder than the rest
i can’t say it i’ll leave it in my chest
look out your window to the night
see her flying to the second star to the right
your father grabbed me holding up the line
wiped my tears looked me in the eyes
you mother joined him and your sister too
they told me what i already knew
you’re burning brighter but you’ll never last
you’re moving faster your time will never pass
(look out your window see her fly)
look out your window to the night
see her flying to the second star to the right
one whole year and i still see you in my sleep
there’s the rub but do you ever dream of me
at the church we gathered and we cried
we knew you fell we didn’t know you’d fly
you’re burning brighter but you’ll never last
you’re moving faster your time will never pass
(look out your window see her fly)
look out your window to the night
see her flying to the second star to the right
