Echo My Heart - Philip Bailey

I hit the corner pocket hard

My back against the wall

And only you can stop it

But you didn’t even break the fall

I guess it had to happen

Some things you can’t explain away

You try to wake up laughing

You try to make it like it was

Echo my heart

Straight to my need

Wrapped in the dark

Me and you, you and me

Like a blue movie

Echo my heart

Shadow its beat

Stripped from the start

To the soul

To the soul that you took from me

Now there’s no doubt about it

No use in saying more

I’m just a shell without you

I don’t care about the girls before

Look at the situation

Let’s leave a little room

Enough to take the chance and I know

We’ll make it better than it was

Echo my heart

Straight to my need

Wrapped in the dark

Me and you, you and me

Like a blue movie

Echo my heart

Shadow its beat

Stripped from the start

To the soul

To the soul that you took from me

Echo my heart

Straight to my need

Wrapped in the dark

You and me, like a blue movie

Echo my heart

Shadow its beat

Stripped from the start

To the soul

To my soul, you have captured me

(Echo my heart)

I hit the corner pocket hard

(Straight to my need)

My back against the wall

(Wrapped in the dark)

And only you can stop it

(You and me, like a blue movie)

Well, you didn’t even break the fall

(Echo my heart)

I guess it had to happen

(Shadow its beat)

Some things you can’t explain away

(Stripped from the start)

You try to wake up laughing

(To the soul that you took from me)

You try to make it like it was

Echo my heart

Straight to my need

Wrapped in the dark

You and me, like a blue movie

Echo my heart

Shadow its beat

Stripped from the start

To the soul

To my soul, you have captured me

Echo my heart

Straight to my need

Wrapped in the dark

You and me, like a blue movie

Echo my heart
