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
