Echo Park Lyrics
Today it rained in L.A.
Smog's been beaten down for awhile
Drove up a hill where I could feel the ocean...
And see for miles
Feels like the top of the world
Right here the world's all mine
Here i lie watching the cars on the highway
You're one of those lights that's driving away
I'm standing in the dark wondering where you are
I'm leaving my heart here in Echo Park.
Today you said you were leaving,
Couldn't let you see me cry
You can take what you want to
But won't let you take my pride
Feels like the top of the world
Right here the world's all mine
[Chorus]
Here i lie watching the cars on the highway
You're one of those lights that's driving away
I'm standing in the dark wondering where you are
I'm leaving my heart here in Echo Park.
And the cars look smaller from here
And the sky looks bigger from here
And now that everything is clear
Everything falls apart...
[Chorus]
Here i lie watching the cars on the highway
You're one of those lights that's driving away
I'm standing in the dark wondering where you are...
Wondering where you are... in Echo Park, in Echo Park
Smog's been beaten down for awhile
Drove up a hill where I could feel the ocean...
And see for miles
Feels like the top of the world
Right here the world's all mine
You're one of those lights that's driving away
I'm standing in the dark wondering where you are
I'm leaving my heart here in Echo Park.
Couldn't let you see me cry
You can take what you want to
But won't let you take my pride
Feels like the top of the world
Right here the world's all mine
Here i lie watching the cars on the highway
You're one of those lights that's driving away
I'm standing in the dark wondering where you are
I'm leaving my heart here in Echo Park.
And the sky looks bigger from here
And now that everything is clear
Everything falls apart...
Here i lie watching the cars on the highway
You're one of those lights that's driving away
I'm standing in the dark wondering where you are...
Wondering where you are... in Echo Park, in Echo Park

Yeah first 2 comment. Does any one know the real meaning of this song. it's a good song and it sounds like a girlfriend cheated on him.
Think of this song as the one you're crushing going away to college. So you say your goodbyes and go to a local spot where no one will be, because you're a guy, to be sad.
