Let me tell you how it happened
I wasn't looking for someone that night
No, I was never a believer
That you could fall in love at the first sight

But all of a sudden
We loved and got lost in the moment
All of a sudden
She's gone in the flash of a light
I never was looking, hmm
I'll be looking for the rest of my life

We took a Polaroid
You signed your name upon it
I put it in my wallet
Hoping I'd see your face again
We took a Polaroid
Captured the look in your eyes
It's only a matter of time
Before it starts fading

Was it my imagination?
I could've swore I saw someone like you
A thousand people at the station
And in a second, you slipped out of view

Then all of a sudden
I loved and got lost in the moment
All of a sudden
She's gone in the blink of an eye
I never was looking, hmm
I'll be looking for the rest of my life

We took a Polaroid
You signed your name upon it
I put it in my wallet
Hoping I'd see your face again
We took a Polaroid
Captured the look in your eyes
It's only a matter of time
Before it starts fadin'

We were dancing without moving
All my friends are leaving me behind
I didn't wanna catch a feeling
But there was something in that flashing light

Then all of a sudden
I loved and got lost in the moment
All of a sudden
She's gone in the blink of an eye
I never was looking, hmm
I'll been looking for the rest of my life

We took a Polaroid
You signed your name upon it
I put it in my wallet
Hoping I'd see your face again
We took a Polaroid
Captured the look in your eyes
It's only a matter of time
Before it starts fading

We took a Polaroid
You signed your name upon it
I put it in my wallet
Hoping I'd see your face again
