Lyrics
You were an echo in my mind
The point where every winding road unwinds
You wrote the code I thought was true
then broke it unbeknownst to me or you
And in between your magic words
The echo and the call were never heard
PRECHORUS:
And the lines are drawn
A match divided and thrown
As the heart holds on
To the life that is known
CHORUS:
Now what once was the night
I can't seem to recognize
Stars fallen from your eyes
That once shone so bright
I thought I could fight
But now I am standing by
Watching the empty sky
That once was the night
I couldn't tell the difference anymore
What part was love and what had come before
Our hands were pressed against the day
That one of us would want to run away
As separate as black from blue
And easy as a hundred years of solitude
PRECHORUS
CHORUS
The night so lonely
A heart so black so blue
I know the morning can only
Reveal the shadows of you
I was going nowhere fast
And every step would take me toward the past
I began to shrink inside
So small that when my lonely knot was tied
I was an echo in your mind
Lost in canyons I would never find
PRECHORUS
