Echoes of Their Love (Remix)

[male

vocals] (

Soft

acoustic

guitar

chords) (

Deep

breath)

I

hear

you

in

the

wind

tonight

Even

though

the

stars

have

dimmed

their

light

I’

m

reaching

out

across

the

divide

To

the

ones

who

kept

my

heart

alive

You

left

when

I

was

small,

Dad

A

shadow

in

the

hallway,

a

memory

I

had

Then

Momma

followed,

drifting

to

the

sea

Leaving

all

the

weight

of

the

world

on

me

I

grew

up

in

the

silence

of

an

empty

chair

Looking

for

a

ghost,

searching

for

a

prayer

I

felt

the

cold

floor,

the

hollow

in

my

chest

Trying

to

find

a

way

to

let

the

spirit

rest

Oh,

the

starlight

echoes

in

the

dark

of

the

night

You

were

the

morning,

you

were

the

light

Even

when

the

winter

stripped

the

branches

bare

I

felt

the

whisper

of

your

love

in

the

air

Oh,

the

starlight

echoes,

calling

my

name

I’

m

standing

here

whole,

despite

all

the

pain

School

books

were

heavy,

the

numbers

wouldn't

align

I

struggled

through

the

haze,

losing

all

my

time

Failing

every

grade,

drowning

in

the

grey

Wishing

I

could

just

sleep

my

life

away

But

I

kept

on

walking,

through

the

mud

and

the

rain

Learning

how

to

dance

in

the

middle

of

the

flame

I

found

a

new

rhythm,

I

found

a

new

beat

Standing

on

my

own,

two

steady

feet

Oh,

the

starlight

echoes

in

the

dark

of

the

night

You

were

the

morning,

you

were

the

light

Even

when

the

winter

stripped

the

branches

bare

I

felt

the

whisper

of

your

love

in

the

air

Oh,

the

starlight

echoes,

calling

my

name

I’

m

standing

here

whole,

despite

all

the

pain

To

the

hands

that

held

me

when

the

house

fell

down

To

the

aunts

and

the

uncles

who

stayed

around

You

became

the

roots

when

the

tree

had

lost

its

ground

You

saved

a

broken

soul

and

turned

it

all

around

I

am

the

harvest

of

the

love

you

sowed

Walking

with

a

smile

on

this

golden

road

Oh,

the

starlight

echoes

in

the

dark

of

the

night

You

were

the

morning,

you

were

the

light

Even

when

the

winter

stripped

the

branches

bare

I

felt

the

whisper

of

your

love

in

the

air

Oh,

the

starlight

echoes,

calling

my

name

I’

m

standing

here

whole,

despite

all

the

pain

I’

m

smiling

now,

can

you

see

me?

I’

m

finally

free,

can

you

believe

me?

Thank

you

for

the

path,

thank

you

for

the

life

I

made

it

through

the

storm,

I

survived

the

strife (

Fading

acoustic

guitar)

Rest

now,

sleep

now.

I’

m

doing

just

fine.
