I'll Make the Echoes

Happy Week 14! Had different plans in mind for this track than what I was able to accomplish time-wise (and frankly skill-wise ). Likely to revisit this one some day, but I don’t dislike where I left it. I was trying to figure out why this melody sounded familiar, and I think it’s similar to the bridge from “Fire and Rain” by James Taylor, go figure.

Don’t tell of echoes, tell of that sound
Sweeps your feet clear of ground
Sing every note in your head or aloud
Those left connect with another sound
A tune you’ll never recount
Take your time to stay here and now
I won’t tell stories unless they’re true
I don’t mean just facts or rules
Teach every lesson, but bend every tune
Your chance is burning away from both ends
Some breaks you may never mend
Take what is left and build something new
I’ll make the echoes, I’ll make the sounds
Connect when I fear the ground
Tell stories I know to be true
I’ll make the echoes, I’ll make the sounds
Connect when I fear the ground
Tell stories I know to be true
