Echo
Trevor Moran Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We were on to something,
Now I'm left with nothing at all
And I
Wanna hear your echo,
Got to be the name you call
Every time I do it like that,
Do you wanna play your heart until it cracks?
Love is not red, it's black
I love it,
So what are we gonna do?
Your mind is running on,
I love it!
So what are we gonna do?
Your mind is running on,
You and I,
We were on to something,
Now I'm left with nothing at all,
And I
Wanna hear your echo,
Got to be the name you call
Whoa! Wanna hear your Echo, oh oh
Wanna hear your Echo
I see trouble and I know
Every thing I do is one big show
Even though you make me glow
I have to move on and grow
I love it,
So what are we gonna do?
Your mind is running on
I love it,
So what are we gonna do?
Your mind is running on
You and I,
We were on to something
Now I'm left with nothing at all
And I
Wanna hear your echo
Got to be the name you call
Whoa! Wanna hear your echo
Wanna hear your echo
I love it,
So what are we gonna do?
Your mind is running on
I love it,
So what are we gonna do?
Your mind is running on
Whoa! Wanna hear your echo,
Wanna hear your echo
The lyrics to Trevor Moran's "Echo" explore the aftermath of a failed relationship. The singer reminisces about the past, where he and his partner had something special, but now that relationship has ended, and he has nothing. The chorus repeats his desire to "hear your echo," referencing the desire to hear his former partner's voice again. He still loves this person and wants to know if they want to continue playing games with their hearts or move on.
The lyrics also touch on the idea of putting on a façade. The line, "everything I do is one big show," highlights that everything the singer does is for show, perhaps as a means of hiding his true feelings or pretending that everything is all right. He acknowledges that his ex-partner makes him glow, but it's time for him to move on and grow.
The repetition of "I love it, so what are we gonna do?" throughout the song signifies the unrequited love that the singer still feels towards their former partner. He knows that his ex-partner's mind is running on, but he still wants to know if there's a chance for them to be together again.
Overall, "Echo" is a poignant exploration of the complexities of love and heartbreak.

You and I,
We were on to something,
Now I'm left with nothing at all
We had something special between us, but now it's gone and I feel empty.
And I
Wanna hear your echo,
Got to be the name you call
I long to hear your voice once again, and to hear you call my name.
Every time I do it like that,
Turns out you'll crawl right back
When I act a certain way, you always come back to me.
Do you wanna play your heart until it cracks?
Do you want to keep pushing yourself until you eventually break?
Love is not red, it's black
Love isn't always happy and vibrant, it can be dark and painful.
I see trouble and I know
Every thing I do is one big show
Even though you make me glow
I have to move on and grow
I sense that there are going to be problems, and even though you make me happy, I know that I have to leave in order to grow as a person.
Whoa! Wanna hear your Echo, oh oh
Wanna hear your Echo
I really want to hear your voice, to feel that connection that we once had.
I love it,
So what are we gonna do?
Your mind is running on,
I really love the feeling I get from being with you, but I'm not sure what to do because you seem distracted.
You and I,
We were on to something
Now I'm left with nothing at all
And I
Wanna hear your echo
Got to be the name you call
We had something special, but now that it's gone I just want to hear your voice once more, to feel that connection we once had.
Whoa! Wanna hear your echo
Wanna hear your echo
I really want to hear your voice, more than anything else right now.
