I hear another echo, and decide to look back. It's just my mind reminding me of what I left.

I hear the sounds to come home, But I'm afraid I can't be alone.

I said to slow it down and start again. Be more than a distant friend,

Please. You mean more to me

Than I can ever say. Please love me, it's okay.

I can still be what I wanted when I met you: A lover, a close step to heaven in all we do.

It's just medicine and sympathy. I'm sorry, I don't feel like you know me.

And when I looked back that night, Your tear filled eyes

Brought my trembling legs to their knees, And I now know what it means

To fall in love and out of grace, To want my child to have your face.

I hear another echo, and decide to look back. It's just my mind reminding me of what I left.
