Man, we used to be brothers
|
Superheroes and warriors
|
Cowboys and Indians, train drivers
|
Everything rolling through the endless summers
|
|
But everything changes
|
You got married had children
|
And I don't have your number
|
The one I can remember is that place you used to live with your parents
|
|
But in the stillness of the moment it takes for a Polaroid picture
|
To capture our faces forever and
|
The world has turned a touch on its axis
|
And the only thing certain is
|
That everything changes
|
|
And they closed the Astoria
|
At the end of last summer
|
The place we earned our pedigrees
|
Scene of our victories
|
Sanctuary in the centre of London
|
|
Now they're building a railway
|
To track the vanquished to Versailles
|
And singalongs on on
|
But they're singing different songs
|
In rooms that we don't know on the other side of the city
|
|
But in the stillness of the moment it takes for a Polaroid picture
|
To capture our faces forever and
|
The world has turned a touch on its axis
|
And the only thing certain is
|
That everything changes
|
|
So honey I just need a little time
|
To take a little time today
|
To save all the triumphs and tragedies
|
Before they slip away
|
Before they slip away
|
|
Let go of the little distractions
|
Hold close to the ones that you love
|
Because we won't all be here this time next year
|
So while you can take a picture of us
|
|
Let go of the little distractions
|
Hold close to the ones that you love
|
Because we won't all be here this time next year
|
So while you can take a picture of us
|
|
Take a Polaroid picture
|
(Let go of the little distractions)
|
(Hold close to the ones that you love)
|
|
Take a picture of us to show
|
We all want you to see where time goes
|
|
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
|
Man there was this one time
|
When things were okay...
