Slow Motion Skyline 2 (version 2)

Verse

Faded Polaroid, creased in my pocket like a prayer

Same city streets, different light on your face

We used to dance beneath a neon sky

But every step we took, I knew it wouldn't last

Pre-Chorus

So why do I hold onto these old scars?

Why do the shadows feel so much farther now than they ever were

Chorus

Lost in the slow motion of what's past

Every moment is burning out at last

I'm chasing sunsets that we never found

But the memories stay, spinning round and round

Verse

Your smile was a fire on a winter night

You were my shelter from the dark and wide

We stole our summers like they'd burn us down

And I still remember how your eyes used to shine

Pre-Chorus

So why do I hold onto these old scars?

Why do the shadows feel so much farther now than they ever were

Chorus

Lost in the slow motion of what's past

Every moment is burning out at last

I'm chasing sunsets that we never found

But the memories stay, spinning round and round

Bridge

Maybe it's not about living for tomorrow

Maybe it's just about holding onto this hour

So I'll stand here in the fading light of you

And I'll let every second feel like forever too

Chorus

Lost in the slow motion of what's past

Every moment is burning out at last

I'm chasing sunsets that we never found

But the memories stay, spinning round and round
