Lyrics
Echoes of light
I breathe
Echoes of light in the waiting room
I hold my breath then I make it through
Echoes of light dont fade tonight
Im counting hope under hospital lights
αααΆααα’αΎα αααα»ααα
ααΈααα
Echoes of light
Echoes of light
Im here
Im here
The clock moves slow I dont fight it
Breathing in breathing out stay quiet
Dads by your side Im down the hall
Trying to be steady through it all
No panic in my veins
Just love that remains
Echoes of light in the waiting room
I hold my breath then I make it through
Echoes of light dont fade tonight
Im counting hope under hospital lights
αααΆααα’αΎα αααα»ααα
ααΈααα
Echoes of light
Echoes of light
Im here
Im here
Different faces
different prayers
Some talk too much some just stare
Christmas coming strange timing
Like the world keeps perfect smiling
If I cant fix a thing I can stay
If I cant change the night I can pray
ααΌαα’αααααααΊαα
ααΆαα½αααΎα
Echoes of light
Echoes of light
Echoes of light
Echoes of light
Echoes of light
Im here
Im here
