Echoes on "A" Street

[Verse 1] Anxious nights give way to daylight She don't cry and she don't complain To honor, cherish, protect and keep you She took your problems and took your name [Verse 2] All she wants to do is stroll down the island She don't care if there's wind or there's rain Only a woman of her stature could shield you From the venom of this town's disdain [Chorus] And she'll wait by your side She'll never let you out of her sight And she'll wait by your side You're the one thing that matters in her life [Verse 3] As she waits patiently by the window She knows you'll be coming home soon She'll sit quiet there and won't go Her dedication can't be moved [Verse 4] She hears the echoes marching down "A" street Like footsteps on the cobblestone A pace too heavy to be her master They pass her by and she's still alone [Chorus] And she'll wait by your side She'll never let you out of her sight And she'll wait by your side You're the one thing that matters in her life [Bridge] Shannon, I'm coming home Shannon, I'm coming home [Verse 4] She hears the echoes marching down "A" street Like footsteps on the cobblestone A pace too heavy to be her master They pass her by and she's still alone [Chorus] And she'll wait by your side She'll never let you out of her sight And she'll wait by your side You're the one thing that matters in her life [Outro] Shannon, I'm coming home Shannon, I'm coming home Shannon, I'm coming home
