Lyrics The Echoing Green

The Echoing Green

Ambler

Do you know where you are

When you're so alone and

The memories pass you by?

Are you near or far

From the only home that you've never know

So cry, cry as the years go by

Is there something you left there?

A mother holds her child for the first time

And the last time...

In Ambler

Do you wish you could find a severance from

All the tears that drench your soul?

Is it all in your mind or is there something else

That you've never told?

So try, try push the pain aside

Can you turn it around

When your heart's still in that town?

This is goodbye for the last time...

To Ambler

Will the morning see what you were meant to be

Will you finally find some peace of mind

You always push and shove

For a mother's love

But your double mind says that

You're just fine

And now there's nowhere to go

And there's no one you know

And you're left all alone with the pain inside

Until you look to the sky

Until you lay down your pride

The place where your hurt was born

Is where your heart will die

Do you know where you are?

...you're in Ambler
