Fading Polaroids v8.00

[Dialogue - over a looping piano intro] I recorded this next song after my dad passed. It still means a lot to me. So... here it is. [Verse 1] Found a box in the attic with the dust still thick Pictures curling at the edges, fading quick Your smile's a blur, but the ache's still clear Every snapshot pulls the past back here [Chorus] Like fading Polaroids, the colors disappear But the ghost of what we were still lingers here I can't stop the years from washing out your face But the hurt stays sharp in the empty space [Verse 2] There's one of us laughing on a July night Streetlights burning, holding you so tight Now it's nothing but shadows where the light once burned The picture fades, but the memory returns [Chorus] Like fading Polaroids, the colors disappear But the ghost of what we were still lingers here I can't stop the years from washing out your face But the hurt stays sharp in the empty space [Bridge] But I can still feel your hand in mine No matter how the picture fades away The ache in my chest is here to stay [Final Chorus] Like fading Polaroids, the colors disappear But the ghost of what we were still lingers here I can't stop the years from washing out your face But the hurt stays sharp in the empty space Fading Polaroids, fading Polaroids Won't let me forget
