Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We were kids on the back porch
Drinking rain from our bare hands
Summer ran like a freight train
We just hung from the railings
Laughing
Now the porch has a fresh coat
New shoes by the front door
Same sky
But it feels closer
Guess I’m taller than before
[Chorus]
Life keeps changing in a second
Every breath another scene
All these broken
Blurry moments
Fit together in between
Like polaroids in motion
Spinning slow inside my head
All the colors from our yesterday
Painting where I’m going next
[Verse 2]
I still drive past the old school
See your name in the cracked paint
We were sure it would last forever
Then forever just changed its shape
You moved out to the coastline
I learned how to be alone
We both packed up different futures
But we’re carrying the same old songs
[Chorus]
Life keeps changing in a second
Every breath another scene
All these broken
Blurry moments
Fit together in between
Like polaroids in motion
Spinning slow inside my head
All the colors from our yesterday
Painting where I’m going next
[Bridge]
Every goodbye
Stitches to a simple thread
Running through time
Tying what was to what’s ahead
If it hurt
If it healed
It belongs to me still
Every joy
Every scar
Building who I am
[Chorus]
Life keeps changing in a second
Every breath another scene
All these broken
Blurry moments
Fit together in between
Like polaroids in motion
Spinning slow inside my head
All the wonder from our yesterday
Making something brighter
Making something brighter
Where I’m going next
