Lyrics
[verse]
Found an old shoebox buried at the back of my closet floor
Faces from a life I don't quite recognize anymore
Torn up jeans and borrowed jackets, cheap disposable cam
Everybody looking younger than I remember I am
[chorus]
Look at this, a frozen little scene
Everything we thought we'd always be, back when we were seventeen
Some roads led us far away and some just led to pain
But I still smile every time I see that face again
[verse]
Half these faces scattered to some city I don't know
Half these streets got torn down decades ago
But right here in this picture we're still standing on the porch
Still convinced that we were built to outlast every storm
[chorus]
Look at this, a frozen little scene
Everything we thought we'd always be, back when we were seventeen
Some roads led us far away and some just led to pain
But I still smile every time I see that face again
[bridge]
Every crease and every fade line on this photograph
Tells a story better than a résumé or graph
We didn't know back then how fast the years would fly
But I'm glad we stopped to catch this moment, you and I
[chorus]
Look at this, a frozen little scene
Everything we thought we'd always be, back when we were seventeen
Some roads led us far away and some just led to pain
But I still smile every time I see that face again
