[00:07.64] His goal in life was to be an echo
[00:11.87]
[00:14.87] Riding alone, town after town, toll after toll
[00:19.21]
[00:21.95] A fixed bayonet through the great southwest to forget her
[00:25.32]
[00:32.12] She appears in his dreams
[00:36.66]
[00:40.09] But in his car and in his arms
[00:42.22] A dream can mean anything
[00:43.79]
[00:46.85] A cheap sunset on a television set can upset her
[00:49.53]
[00:52.96] But he never could
[00:54.17]
[00:56.98] Remember to remember me
[01:00.22]
[01:01.41] Standing still in your past
[01:04.35] Floating fast like a hummingbird
[01:07.53]
[01:09.41] His goal in life was to be an echo
[01:13.45]
[01:16.33] The type of sound that floats around and then back down
[01:19.49] Like a feather
[01:21.18]
[01:23.17] But in the deep chrome canyons of the loudest Manhattans
[01:26.95] No one could hear him
[01:28.26]
[01:30.14] Or anything
[01:30.71]
[01:33.45] So he slept on a mountain
[01:37.70]
[01:40.32] In a sleeping bag underneath the stars
[01:42.94] He would lie awake and count them
[01:45.68]
[01:47.43] And the gray fountain spray of the great Milky Way
[01:51.00] Would never let him
[01:52.25]
[01:54.24] Die alone
[01:54.87]
[01:58.18] Remember to remember me
[02:01.17]
[02:02.11] Standing still in your past
[02:04.60]
[02:05.28] Floating fast like a hummingbird
[02:08.03]
[02:10.65] Remember to remember me
[02:13.14]
[02:14.33] Standing still in your past
[02:16.82]
[02:17.63] Floating fast like a hummingbird
[02:20.07]
[02:22.81] A hummingbird
[02:23.64]
[02:25.93] A hummingbird
[02:27.81]
