Greg Graffin - Echo On the Hill lyrics

Listen to the echo on the hill
Coming your way it's decaying fast
The sound of yesterday
Listen to the echo on the hill
That lonesome whine
Like the rocks and rails or
The crops at harvest time
Like the swelling rush of water when
The creeks are getting high
Or the wind that comes
Sweeping up the mountain a familiar craze
A midnight blaze that permeates the horizon

Listen to the echo on the hill
It's going away
And we'll soon be washed in the
Light of a new day
Listen to the echo on the hill
It never lets down
It's the sound of home as you
Drift from town to town


From the cozy little hollow to
The big city shore
You can ramble all around and back again
But the vibrations will follow you just
Like an old long lost friend

Listen to the echo on the hill
When you hear it's ring
Bring it home to one and all one and all
Listen, listen
Listen to the echo on the hill
