Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Man, we used to be brothers
Superheroes and warriors
Cowboys and Indians, train drivers
Everything rolling through the endless summers
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Man, the closed the Astoria
At the end of last summer
The place we earned our pedigree
Scene of our victories
Sanctuary in the center of London
[Verse 5]
Now they're building a railway
To drag the vanquished to Versailles
And the sing-a-longs go on
But they're singing different songs
In rooms that we don't know on the other side of the city
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
So honey, I just need a little time
To take a little time out today
To savor all the triumphs
And tragedy before it slips away
Before it slips away
[Verse 8]
Let go of the little distractions
Hold close to the ones that you love
'Cause we won't all be here this time next year
So while you can, take a picture of us
[Verse 9]
Let go of the little distractions
Hold close to the ones that you love
'Cause we won't all be here this time next year
So while you can, take a picture of us
Take a Polaroid picture
[Verse 10]
(Let go of the little distractions)
Take a Polaroid picture
(Hold close to the ones that you love)
Take a Polaroid picture
('Cause we won't all be here this time next year)
Please, take a Polaroid picture
(So while you can, take a picture of us)
Take a Polaroid picture
[Verse 11]
(Let go of the little distractions)
Please, take a Polaroid picture
(Hold close to the ones that you love)
Take a picture of us to show
('Cause we won't all be here this time next year)
We are watching to see where our timing goes
(So while you can, take a picture of us)
[Verse 12]
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 okay
