Echo

(album: Angela Ammons - 2001)

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
