Lyrics
Polaroid Picture
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Man we used to be brothers, superheroes and warriors
Cowboys and Indians, train drivers, everything
Rolling through the endless summers
But everything changes, you got married, had children
And I don't have your number, the one I can remember
Is the place you used to live with your parents
But in the stillness of the moment it takes for a polaroid picture
To capture our faces forever
The world has turned a touch on its axis, and the only thing certain
Is everything changes
Man they closed the Astoria at the end of last summer
The place we earned our pedigree, scene of our victories
A sanctuary in the centre of London
Now they're building a railway, to drag the vanquished to Versailles
And the singalongs go on, but they're singing different songs
In rooms that we don't know on the other side of the city
I just need a little time to take a little time with today
To savior all the triumph and tragedy, before it slips away
So let go of the little distractions
Hold close to the ones that you love
Because we won't all be here this time next year
So while you can take a picture of us
Take a polaroid picture
Take a picture of us to show we've been watching to see where the time goes
So in the stillness of the moment make sure you take a polaroid picture
And keep it with you forever
To remind yourself that everything changes
But there was this one time, there was this one time, when things were OK
