Polaroids in Slow Motion

[Verse 1]

Curled up on your carpet

Dust in the late June sun

Old film on the laptop

Laughing at how we were young

Your jacket on my shoulders

Too big

But it felt like home

You said

"We should take a picture"

Now it's all I really own

[Chorus]

Polaroids in slow motion

Fading colors

Holding on

Every frame

A tiny ocean

I still live inside those songs

You and me

Out of focus

But that smile was crystal clear

Polaroids in slow motion

I still see you standing here

[Verse 2]

Midnight at the station

Tickets we never used

I traced them

Thinking of you

You drew hearts on the window

Fog from our nervous breath

Said

"Promise we won’t forget this"

Guess that was the softest bet

[Chorus]

Polaroids in slow motion

Fading colors

Holding on

Every frame

A tiny ocean

I still live inside those songs

You and me

Out of focus

But that smile was crystal clear

Polaroids in slow motion

I still see you standing here

[Bridge]

Some nights I rewind

Let the summer play again

Every flicker

Every silence

Every almost-what-we-meant (oh)

If I could climb back

Through the border of that frame

Would you turn around and keep me

Or would it all blur just the same?

[Chorus]

Polaroids in slow motion

Fading colors

Holding on

Every frame

A tiny ocean

I still live inside those songs

You and me

Out of focus

But that smile was crystal clear

Polaroids in slow motion

I still feel you

Always near
