You didn't need to say a word
Your silence was the loudest hurt
I waited in your coldest hour
Hoping love still had some power
But I was just the echo left Of something warm that never kept
I stayed too long hoping you'd see That every tear was silently me
You turned away like I was wrong I'm just an echo you leaned
on too long
We filled the space with half goodbyes You looked away,
I closed my eyes
I should've left when it felt thin But I kept hoping you'd let me in
But doors stayed closed and lights
turned low You were leaving long ago
I stayed too long hoping you'd see That every tear was silently me
You turned away like
I was wrong I'm just an echo you leaned on too long
And now I know love can feel alone When only one heart calls it home
I stayed too long hoping you'd see That every tear was silently me
But it's not love if I can't belong
Just an echo fading
into gold
I stayed too long
hoping
you'd see
That every tear was silently me
You turned away like I was wrong I'm
just an echo you leaned on too long
