Echo

Angela Ammons

Every time I need you you're never there 
So I go 
So tell me what did I do 
To keep you from holding on 
I've cried the tears, but that's not enough 
To show you 
Everything I'm missing 
And you ask 
Why did you leave me 
Oh, Why don't you believe me 
When I say 

You never tried to stop the walls from tumbling down 
You never tried to pick me up when no one was around 
If I could break through 
If I could be strong 
If I could let go 
I could stop the echo of you 

So, I'm running as fast as I can 
Here I go 
You're everything I don't want, 
But you have what I need 
You come back 
You're everywhere, I go 
I feel you all around me 
And you ask 
What did I do, what 
To keep me from you 
And I say 

You never tried to stop the walls from tumbling down 
You never tried to pick me up when no one was around 
If I could break through 
If I could be strong 
If I could let go 
I could stop the echo 

So many times I walked away, without leaving 
Oh, But this time I'm going away 
Believing, oh-oh 

We should rewind 
And listen, to everything you've told me 
So say goodbye to all your promises 
While I promise you goodbye 

You never tried to stop the walls from tumbling down 
You never tried to pick me up when no one was around 
If I could break through 
If I could be strong 
If I could be right 
But, I could be wrong 
If I could break through 
If I could be strong 
If I could let go 
I could stop the echo of you
