Midnight Polaroids

[Verse 1]
Dust on the dashboard
Old tape stuck in the deck
Your laugh in the rearview
Fades in a color I forget
Cheap cologne and sugar
Warm soda on the floor
We raced every red light
Like we’d always get one more

[Chorus]
We were midnight Polaroids
Shaking in electric hands
Burning up the moment
Before it ever had a chance
Frozen in the flash
Hearts out of focus
Two kids on a postcard sky
We were midnight Polaroids
And we never thought we’d say goodbye

[Verse 2]
Pink sign in the window
Buzzing like it knew our names
Coins on the counter
You drew hearts into the rain
We carved our initials
In a booth they probably tossed
Still feels like it’s waiting
Holding space for what we lost

[Chorus]
We were midnight Polaroids
Shaking in electric hands
Burning up the moment
Before it ever had a chance
Frozen in the flash
Hearts out of focus
Two kids on a postcard sky
We were midnight Polaroids
And we never thought we’d say goodbye

[Bridge]
Do you ever drive that highway
Just to see if time stands still? (oh oh)
Would you recognize my shadow
On that beaten-up windshield?
If I found that faded picture
Tucked behind your bedroom light
Would it pull us through the static
Back into that summer night?

[Chorus]
We were midnight Polaroids
Shaking in electric hands
Burning up the moment
Before it ever had a chance
Frozen in the flash
Hearts out of focus
Two kids on a postcard sky
We were midnight Polaroids
But the colors never really die
