Fading Polaroids

Lyrics: Evan Jasper Music: Evan Jasper I found a box beneath my bed Old photographs of what we said Your handwriting on the back still feels alive But time has blurred the colors we left behind
And I wonder if you ever see The way we were, the way it used to be
’Cause I can’t hold fading polaroids forever The ink is breaking down, but the feelings never Every picture’s just a shadow of the truth I can’t stop missing the way I knew you
The laughter’s soft, but out of reach Like waves that vanish on the beach I replay nights where your voice lit up the dark But silence now is all that guards my heart
And I wonder if you feel it too A thousand miles but I still look for you
’Cause I can’t hold fading polaroids forever The ink is breaking down, but the feelings never Every picture’s just a shadow of the truth I can’t stop missing the way I knew you
Maybe time will soften every scar But I still carry pieces of who we are Even broken frames can’t hide what we’ve been through I’m still reaching for the light I lost in you
I can’t hold fading polaroids forever The faces change with time, but the love is tethered Every picture’s just a shadow of the truth I can’t stop missing the way I knew you
