Echoes
Oliver Koletzki & Fran Lyrics

It's late at night
The time is late and the singer is still awake

I'm still awake
The singer is not tired enough to fall asleep

Though I'm a scientist (scientist)
The singer acknowledges their profession as a scientist

No need to analyze this
The artist acknowledges that there is no need to scientifically analyze their current emotional state

I will remember this for sure
The artist is confident in their ability to remember this moment

This very night that changed it all
The singer believes that this particular night was significant in changing their life

You stroked my thigh and made me fall in love again
The singer recollects their partner's affectionate gesture that reignited their love

Your burning eyes have asked for more
The partner's intense gaze has conveyed their desire for more intimacy

One secret kiss and I will go
The artist is aware that a single secret kiss would stir them to leave but is hesitant to do so

But then you followed me and placed your heart in my hand
The partner pursued the artist and allowed them to have their heart

I will remember this for sure
The singer reiterates their confidence in remembering this moment

When we were standing at the bathroom door
The artist remembers standing with their partner by the bathroom door

Your face so close to mine before we both nearly gave in
The singer remembers being very close to giving in to the temptation of their partner's nearness

Allow our hungry hearts to love
The singer asks that they and their partner allow their hearts to love freely

Leave it to powers above
The singer suggests that they leave their love to fate or a higher power

I was too scared to let it happen and too scared to begin
The artist admits that they were afraid to both let their love happen and to start their love story

Who would have known that this moment would echo in my heart
The artist reflects on how this moment has deeply impacted them

Ever since, ever since we almost touched
The singer reminisces from the time since they and their partner's almost touch

We almost loved
The singer realizes that they both almost fell in love in that moment

We almost touched
The artist repeats that they and their partner almost touched

Do you remember this at all?
The artist questions their partner whether they too remember that moment

When you revealed your wounds and scars
The artist remembers when their partner opened up about their past emotional pain

It was the act of your sincerity that melted my heart
The singer acknowledges that their partner's sincerity or honesty was what caused them to fall more in love

So I embrace whatever there has been
The artist accepts and cherishes whatever has happened between them and their partner

Inhale the smell of your skin
The singer savors the scent of their partner's skin

And then I realize that this was the beginning of love
The singer understands that this was the start of a loving relationship with their partner
