Well it's not too late to erase mistakes,
To solve these things that keep you awake.
The memo's passed and you crawl back in.
But the tables turned; I've learned to forget.

Listen for the echo as I scream your name (scream your name)
In hopes you'll hear it before the pavement meets your fame (meets your fame)

And now I see that you could be the very thing that I don't need.

And I walked so hard tonight. I couldn't get to you if I tried.
No, why can't I just be right?

Well it's been so long since I've seen a smile on your face;
Won't you put one on, please? And I've done everything that I could do.
You leave me cold and now I'm broke 'cause I left it up to you.

And I walked so hard tonight. I couldn't get to you if I tried.
No, why can't I just be right?

Well listen for the echo as I scream your name. (scream your name)
In hopes you'll hear it before the pavement meets your fame. (meets your fame)
