Lyrics
[Intro]
[whispered vocals]
I keep rewinding
Rewinding
Rewinding
[Verse 1]
Polaroids in a shoebox
Colors fading
But they shine in my head
Cheap perfume on a jacket
Still smells brighter than this cold king-size bed
I keep replaying old summers
Like a rerun that I’ve almost worn through
Every night the past grows closer
And this crowded room feels far from you
[Chorus]
Velvet echo of yesterday
I’m living in a rerun
Baby
Never in the moment
Always on the rewind
Velvet echo of yesterday
This second never feels like it can stay
I’m dancing with a memory
Leaving now behind
[Verse 2]
Silver watch on my wrist now
Yet I swear I hear that plastic old click
Waiting room in an airport
Dreams in carry-ons that never got picked
People smile for the selfie
But their eyes are looking back
Not ahead
Every toast to the future
Ends up drinking to the days long dead
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
Missed calls
Missed trains
Missed nights in the pouring rain
All the things I never claimed
Now they call my name
Call my name
[crescendo]
Hands up
But I’m not here
Just a ghost in a mirror ball glare
Heartbeat stuck in another year
Can I ever care
Ever care?
[Chorus]
