Songtext von Faded Polaroid

Found a box of ghosts in the attic light Dusty edges and a flash of white I remember the salt, I remember the heat The way the sand felt beneath our feet But the blue of the ocean is turning to grey The Sun in the corner is washing away I'm holding my breath, I'm holding the past Why does the magic never quite last? I'm trying to fix what the chemicals did The secrets and stories that we always hid Shaking the frame, waiting for the view A blurry version of me and you In this faded polaroid, we're still young The greatest song we ever sung Keep the colors from bleeding out Before we're lost in a sea of doubt Your smile is a ghost on a chemical sheet A moment of summer on a winter street I'm tracing the lines where your face used to be A sepia version of you and me Don't let the yellow take over the sky I'm not ready to say this goodbye I'm holding my breath, I'm holding the past Why does the magic never quite last? I'm trying to fix what the chemicals did The secrets and stories that we always hid Shaking the frame, waiting for the view A blurry version of me and you In this faded polaroid, we're still young The greatest song we ever sung Keep the colors from bleeding out Before we're lost in a sea of doubt Flash (and we're frozen in time) Flash (when the world was still mine) Don't fade, please don't fade (Stay golden, stay gold) Shaking the frame, waiting for the view A blurry version of me and you In this faded polaroid, we're still young The greatest song we ever sung Keep the colors from bleeding out Before we're lost in a sea of doubt Still young The greatest song (Fading, fading)
