Echo of What Was (Remastered)

I climbed a mountain Just to slide down the other side I swam across the sea After I got swept by the riptide I kept searching for the words Searching for the perfect way I guess I was Hoping your heart to sway While I was searching our hair turned grey A rift, a divide miles wide Laid between us deepening until it swallowed us whole I tried to yell Grab your hand as you fell into the bottomless well I stared into your eyes as I watched you slip away Oh oh An echo of what was I tried to speak my mind Tried to make the words kind But the words didn’t come out right And as you plummetted out of sight I saw they only gave you speed To seek out the things you said you needed And I wept Oh oh I wept over us As I flung myself down chasing what was now only a sound I reached through the dark For the last good part of where we were before the fall Before we were nothing at all Oh oh An echo of what was Now broken without trust Our love turned to dust Oh oh I wept over us I never cried Ohh ohh oh I held it in Till it cut me thin I never cried Until I saw How far we’d fall’n Oh oh An echo of what was Now broken without trust And still I try to find the words Oh oh Will I ever find the words
