Polaroid

[Verse 1]
Found a box beneath my bed
Full of notes and words we said
And there you were, frozen in time
Your smile still stuck in ‘99
[Pre-Chorus]
You looked so real I almost spoke
Forgotten moments we never broke
A second captured, forever stays
While everything else fades away
[Chorus]
You're just a polaroid I can't throw out
A memory loud in a world gone quiet now
Colors may fade, but you still shine
In that tiny square, you're still mine
We were forever for a moment
Now you're a picture I can't reopen
[Verse 2]
You wore that jacket way too big
I took the shot, you laughed, you hid
That day the sky was navy blue
And somehow it still smells like you
[Pre-Chorus]
I hold it up against the light
Like somehow you’ll step back into life
A flash, a laugh, a simple glance
Now all I’ve got is one last chance
[Chorus]
You're just a polaroid I can't throw out
A memory loud in a world gone quiet now
Colors may fade, but you still shine
In that tiny square, you're still mine
We were forever for a moment
Now you're a picture I can't reopen
[Bridge]
I know I should let you go
But I still keep you in a drawer
‘Cause letting go means losing more
Than just the photo on the floor
[Final Chorus – soft & stripped]
You're just a polaroid I can't throw out
But maybe someday, I’ll learn how
Till then you’ll stay where no one sees
Still holding all that’s left of we
We were forever for a moment
Now you're a picture I can't reopen
