Echoes
Jules Ahoi & the Deepsea Orchestra Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Crossing rivers, crossing dusty streets
Escape these memories
Darling hold me say I am with you
And these lonesome roads leading to lonesome shores
I feared those jepardies
Darling hold me did you hear it too

The echo of our dream

The echo of the sea
The echo of
Blue and green
Of an old me
Things we lost on our way
In a desert between these sheets

Did you hear it too
These echoes, these echoes
Did you fear it too
These echoes - it echoes

Rowed a wasteland in a rotten boat
And I got caught in the current
I'll be brave the sea made a man of this child
Set sail to the
New territory
Overstriking echoes of these old stories
Dear my dear we have
Nothing to fear
Anymore

The echo of our dream
The echo of the sea
The echo of
Blue and green
Of an old me
Things we lost on our way
In a desert between these sheets

Did you hear it too
These echoes, these echoes

Did you fear it too
These echoes - it echoes

Crossing rivers, crossing dusty streets
Traversing both literal and metaphorical obstacles on our journey

Escape these memories
Desire to leave behind painful memories

Darling hold me say I am with you
Seeking comfort and reassurance from a loved one

And these lonesome roads leading to lonesome shores

I feared those jepardies
Experiencing fear and uncertainty along the way

Darling hold me did you hear it too
Asking if the loved one also senses something otherworldly

The echo of our dream
A reminder of our hopes and aspirations

The echo of the sea
The haunting and powerful nature of the ocean

The echo of Blue and green Of an old me
Memories of a simpler time, perhaps childhood

Things we lost on our way In a desert between these sheets
Regret for what has been left behind and the difficult path taken

Rowed a wasteland in a rotten boat And I got caught in the current
Struggling against adversity, trying to survive in difficult circumstances

I'll be brave the sea made a man of this child Set sail to the New territory
Determination to face fear and move forward into the unknown

Overstriking echoes of these old stories Dear my dear we have Nothing to fear Anymore
Past experiences continue to influence us, but with the support of loved ones, we can move forward without fear

Did you hear it too These echoes, these echoes
Repeating the question to emphasize the mysterious and otherworldly sensation

Did you fear it too These echoes - it echoes
Recognizing the fear that comes with the unknown and what we cannot see or explain
