[Verse 1]
He walks alone in the shadows of his past
Through city streets of chrome and tinted glass
But they don't reflect all the emptiness he knows
And the neon lights never advertise
A place for him to go
[Chorus]
Echoes in wishing wells
And guardian angels sing
Hold on, hold on
[Verse 2]
He jumps a drain, hoping it rolls to the sun
And dreams again of being safe and warm
Got his coat wrapped tight
But the wind still bites so cold
And there's no relief on the tracks at night
When there's no place to go
[Chorus]
Echoes in wishing wells
And guardian angels sing
Hold on, hold on
[Bridge]
Same eyes, just like yours
Same tears, only more
Wondering who still cares
What's behind those cold stairs
[Chorus]
Echoes in wishing wells
And guardian angels sing
Hold on, hold on
Echoes in wishing wells
And guardian angels sing
Hold on, hold on... hold on
