Your Face in the Old Polaroid
by Max Solano
“A Polaroid in a book, and your face in the sunlight. I sang it as quietly as I could so I wouldn't scare the memory off.”

Lyrics
Found a Polaroid tucked in a book Your face in the sunlight, that first look Sand on your shoulders, a crooked grin The best day of summer, where we begin I hold it up to the window light You're still laughing, you're still bright Your face in the old Polaroid Fading colours, never void Smiling there like yesterday Take my heart and stay, stay, stay Your face in the old Polaroid Every little shade, a joy Smiling there like yesterday I keep you close, and I will stay Your hand on the wheel of a borrowed car Radio singing, we didn't go far Handwritten date on the border white Two hearts shining in the evening light I hold it up to the window light You're still laughing, you're still bright Your face in the old Polaroid Fading colours, never void Smiling there like yesterday Take my heart and stay, stay, stay Your face in the old Polaroid Every little shade, a joy Smiling there like yesterday I keep you close, and I will stay Pictures fade, but songs remain Sunshine lives in a sweet refrain Pictures fade, but I hold tight Everything we were, tonight Your face in the old Polaroid Fading colours, never void Smiling there like yesterday Take my heart and stay, stay, stay Your face in the old Polaroid Every little shade, a joy Smiling there like yesterday I keep you close, and I will stay Your face in the old Polaroid Stay, stay, stay
