Echoes lyrics

You were my sanctuary

I was your tree of life

The nights were so divine

They heard you screaming every night

I was the boy this time

The birds come from the trees

Oh darling, wait two minutes

I would hate for you to leave

Let's make this night uncut

Let's keep the curtains shut

I'll take you to the stars

'Coz now the sky is not enough

And I hear the echoes

And I hear the echoes

You're at that silly age

The drugs will rule your life

Cold cheeks and blood-shot eyes are cleaning up to say goodnight

I knew that you'd outgrow

And now we just don't flow

The way we used to do

You used to think that I was cool

I'm on the other side

I walked to watch the light

Don't tell me what you've got

It's half as good as you and I

And I hear the echoes

And I hear the echoes

Look at this montage

Oh, you were happy then

I made it for you to remind you of how you were then

You've got your new life

See through those new eyes

You've got your know-it-all friends, oh

Look at this montage

Oh, you were happy then

I made it for you to remind you of how you were then, oh

And I hear the echoes

And I hear the echoes

You were my sanctuary

I was your tree of life

The nights were so divine

They heard you screaming every night
