Echo

do you remember chatting with me
it was barely december in this circle of trees
the blue through the branches the stare in your eye
build us a fire stay us all night

i sat and i stared while you slept in a chair
your watery eyes and long puddled hair
and watched as you counted the stars in the sky
a halo above you in rachel's eyes

sometimes you can hear the train
it carries across the town
do you think you could be swayed
are you gonna come back down?

and it's getting night like it always is
no one's around like there never is
this is the night and look what it do
this house is vacant with an echo of you

sometimes you can hear the train
it carries across the town
do you think you could be swayed
are you gonna come back down?
at night this house creaks and leans
keep sleep away from me
sometimes you can hear the train
are you gonna come back down?
