How Many Times
Echoes of Longing: Andrew Morris' Journey Through Love and Solitude
Lyrics
Though you may hear me
Expressing a possibility that the speaker's voice may be heard.
And follow the sounds of hope
Encouraging the listener to follow positive and hopeful sounds.
Well, heaven may help me
Seeking help or intervention from a higher power or heaven.
In the end I'll know
Regardless of the outcome, the speaker will gain knowledge.
If someone could reach her
Expressing a desire for someone to convey a message to another person.
And tell her I'm walking out
Announcing a decision to walk away or end a relationship.
Though love may come easy
Acknowledging that love may be accessible, but the speaker is willing to do without it.
In the end, I'll do without
Despite the ease of love, the speaker is prepared to live without it in the end.
How many times must I call, you?

How may words must I?

How many times must I call?

I get closer and closer to you

Well, the seats are all empty

But the show must go on I'm told
Despite emptiness, emphasizing the continuation of a performance or life's journey.
And I'll leave when you tell me
Indicating a willingness to leave when instructed by the other person.
For a while you know I'm still proud
Expressing a sense of pride even during a period of waiting.
How many times must I call, you?

How many words must I?
Asking about the number of words required to communicate effectively.
How many times must I call, you?

It gets closer and closer to you

Do you still walk alone for me?
