Echo Lyrics - Echo - Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

Put down your things and rest awhile 

We both know where to go 

Yeah, daddy had to crash 

He was always halfway there you know 

And no, I don't pretend there's any more of that 

They say one day, you'll look up and laugh 

And hear the same sad echo when you walk 

Yeah, the same sad echo when you talk, loud and clear 

It's the same, it's the same sad echo around here 

I promise you this winter 

I will worship you like gold 

And ride your train forever 

Electric fortunes to be told 

And I don't want to question or even celebrate 

All the joy you took and then gave back too late 

It's the same sad echo when you lie 

It's the same sad echo when you try to be clear 

It's the same as the same sad echo, around here 

Well, I woke up right here 

In a pool of sweat 

With a box of pills and you 

Yeah, and I'm gonna keep my head 

I'm gonna keep my cool 

'Cause I'm so in love with you 

Yes and in another world nothing was like this 

There may have been a girl 

There never was a kiss 

The poison came in liquid 

She was naked all the time 

And no one could explain it 

It was all between the lines 

And I don't seem to trust anyone no more 

It could be faith, but now I'm not quite sure 

It's the same sad echo every day 

Yeah the same sad echo another way 

It's the same sad echo when you call 

It's the same, it's the same sad echo, most of all 

Well you just got tired 

You just gave in 

You took it hard 

Then you just quit 

You let me down 

You dropped the ball 

You fell on your face most of all 

And I don't want to mean anything to you 

I don't want to tempt you to be true 

It's the same sad echo comin' down 

It's the same sad echo all around in my ears 

It's the same, it's the same sad echo around here
