Echolalia

You said it right away but I needed time

I was already in love but I was terrified

Because the last one was the wrong kind of love

It hung me out to dry

But you always knew what was on my mind

It took a lot of time to believe it’s real

I know you like me better than other people

And you’re the last one in, no end all beginnings

Everything I need

It finally feels like a guarantee

You don’t have to say

But say it anyway

I love the sound of your voice when you’re calling me

Echolalia

Once is not enough

Either one of us starts and we’ll never stop

Echoing

Echoing

We’re echoing

You and me

Echolalia

Lalala

So I spelled it out in candy letters

You gave me a ring in a box of treasure

Cause it’s the way we talk the words and the gestures

Call and the response

A million ways to say you’re where I belong

It hasn’t always been just what we wanted

Sometimes the things you hope for leave you haunted

But all the risk and pressure, inclement weather

Crises of the moment

We’ll never let them go unspoken

You don’t have to say

But say it anyway

I love the sound of your voice when you’re calling me

Echolalia

Once is not enough

Either one of us starts and we’ll never stop

Oh out there in the cold

Where life was slow

We kept each other warm

Oh put it on repeat

Every second you’re with me

I’ll always want you more

Echolalia

Lalala

Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala

Lalalalalalalalalalalalalalala

Echoing

We’re echoing

We’re echoing

You and me

Echolalia

Lalalala

Echolalia

Lalalala

Echolalia
