about

Rae Minor sings about the pain accompanying the realization that even when you love someone with all you have, they may not have the capability to return that love. "Your I love you's are my echo". It means that when you only hear those three words you so long to hear after you've said them first, it's probably time to move on.

lyrics

So maybe I was looking for you, and you were looking away
Or maybe I found you because you were
Last night while you were sleeping, I put your arms around me
And I allowed myself in the false comfort
To convince myself that you were really holding me

You're a broken car on a falling bridge, and I'm the ocean underneath
You'd rather hold on 'til the last second than to jump into safety
And like the water, I too will keep moving
'Til before you know it, you'll have missed your chance

Your I love you's are my echo
Your I love you's are my echo

Knowing that I'll fight to keep us together
And knowing I'll let go for the sake of us
You sit back and watch me battle myself, but won't help to nurse my wounds
After all, it was my war, and you always come out victorious

Your I love you's are my echo
Your I love you's are my echo
Your I love you's are my echo

Maybe you like to take me from behind so you don't have to see the love on my face
You can pretend that it's not there and feel no guilt
But it's there

I look around at our surroundings
We try to make this place our home
Then I look at you and realize
I'm living here alone

Your I love you's are my echo
Your I love you's are my echo
Your I love you's are my echo
