You were my sanctuary I was your tree of life The nights were so divine They heard you screaming every night I was the boy this time The birds come from the trees Oh darling, wait two minutes I would hate for you to leave Let`s make this night uncut Let`s keep the curtains shut I`ll take you to the stars `Cause now the sky is not enough
And I hear the echoes And I hear the echoes
You`re at that silly age The drugs will rule your life Cold cheeks and blood-shot eyes are cleaning up to say goodnight I knew that you`d outgrow And now we just don`t flow The way we used to do You used to think that I was cool I`m on the other side I walked to watch the light Don`t tell me what you`ve got It`s half as good as you and I
And I hear the echoes And I hear the echoes
Look at this montage Oh, you were happy then I made it for you to remind you of how you were then You`ve got your new life See through those new eyes You`ve got your know-it-all friends, oh Look at this montage Oh, you were happy then I made it for you to remind you of how you were then, oh
And I hear the echoes And I hear the echoes
You were my sanctuary I was your tree of life The nights were so divine They heard you screaming every night
