Lauren Aquilina
Echoes
[Verse 1]
Hands down, caught in the middle
You knew I was waiting for the light
But the days got dark for a little
And they can't see that you're trouble
You said you could change like fire to the rain
But the days stayed dark for a little

[Pre-Chorus]
I cut my teeth on the words you speak
Getting lost in the echoes
And your young years cover up my ears
Getting lost in the echoes

[Chorus]
Cause you built love inside a vacant home
You put my hand in yours
But I was never yours to hold
You knew my fears would always keep me here
You put my hand in yours
But I was never yours to hold
I was never yours to hold, no
I was never yours to hold, no

[Verse 2]
Head high, losing the battle
Cover up your own tracks and take it back
But your days got dark for a little
Found me foolish and fickle
Never change my mind, just gave up on a time
When the days got dark for a little
[Pre-Chorus]
I cut my teeth on the words you speak
Getting lost in the echoes
And your young years cover up my ears
Getting lost in the echoes

[Chorus]
Cause you built love inside a vacant home
You put my hand in yours
But I was never yours to hold
You knew my fears would always keep me here
You put my hand in yours
But I was never yours to hold

[Bridge]
Never gonna give you hope
Never gonna let you go
Never gonna feel you in my bones
Cause I was never yours to hold
Never gonna lose control
Never gonna be the heart you stole
I'll be burning bright out on my own
Cause I was never yours to hold
I was never yours to hold

[Chorus]
Cause you built love inside a vacant home
You put my hand in yours
But I was never yours to hold
You knew my fears would always keep me here
You put my hand in yours
But I was never yours to hold
I was never yours to hold, no
I was never yours to hold, no
