I have been listening to 3eb for years and years and only just discovered this song.
I feel this song is all about regret and thinking about a past relationship. Regretting mistakes made, wishing things could work out.
The lyrics in this song are like most of SJ's work, beautiful.
66,000 miles an hour is the approximate speed of the planet earth as it orbits the sun. To me its a reference to time and how despite any feelings, any decisions, anything, it just keeps going on.
The line 'hanging onto your dress like a little boy' is so powerful of the feeling of longing and regret when you realise you've lost the woman you really love. It really reduces you to that.
"And we fly in a decayed orbit
66 thousand miles an hour goes by when we kissed
And only now do I feel your mouth
Like an ache you never knew
And it was right in front of you"
"And we fly in a decayed orbit
66 thousand miles an hour goes by when we kissed
And only now do I feel your mouth
Like an ache you never knew
And it was right in front of you"

I could go on. The lyrics are just so powerful.
Yeah jenkin's imagery in this song blow my mind:
