Polaroids

Guess I never thought this time would come
I can see now I was wrong
I try my best to hide, somehow thought that we’d collide
I was always waiting for your love, as if there was always time
let’s go walking up this hill, the breeze might clear your mind
kick and get lost in the fallen leaves,
yellow coat contrasts the trees
washed out winter sun, tried his best there’s still no hope
heard from your mom the other day, she said her date’s been set for may
that’s pretty soon, it’s so apparent when you speak that only half of you has
thought
this through
no, we never hang out much these days
feels like nothing’s really changed
polaroid of us in school, still brings light to my wall
I cut 'em at the freckles on your face
now we’re working the 9 to 5 career
I only see you from my bicycle as you ride on the train to the pier
wonder if you think I’ll hang around, once a victor has been crowned
I wanna sing at your parade, and I wanna celebrate the day
middle of last week when I found out, I did some digging in the ground
where a child has laid in peace, I show you what I’ve found
you wear it on your face and in your eyes that there’s a heart too bridged to
find
somewhere in between, you can’t come out of this with me
walking on the long way by the cliff, we string a little closer to the sea
and if we fall into our death, at least I know you’re lying next to me
