Halls Lyrics
Pouring rain in Tucson, Arizona
Checked into the Congress Hotel
Met the band in a bar next to the lobby
Looking for another story I could tell
When I left town, we were headed for the altar
And I told you I'd be back before too long
Cut my hair, and I found me a new girlfriend
Thought a broken heart could write a perfect song
And it did, and I was right, so now you're gone
You echo in the halls
I feel your shadow on this empty stage
I hear your music through the words
I see your picture on the blank page, oh
You echo in the halls
Played the show, left another message
Booked a ticket for tomorrow in Tempe
3 am, doing cartwheels down the hallway
I've been drinking since the day I set you free
But on this airport morning, will you wait for me?
You echo in the halls
I feel your shadow on this empty stage
I hear your music through the words
I see your picture on the blank page, oh
You echo in the halls
You echo in the halls
I feel your shadow on this empty stage
I hear your music through the words
I see your picture on the blank page, oh
You echo in the halls
I feel your shadow on this empty stage
I hear your music through the words
I see your picture on the blank page, oh
You echo in the halls
Checked into the Congress Hotel
Met the band in a bar next to the lobby
Looking for another story I could tell
And I told you I'd be back before too long
Cut my hair, and I found me a new girlfriend
Thought a broken heart could write a perfect song
And it did, and I was right, so now you're gone
I feel your shadow on this empty stage
I hear your music through the words
I see your picture on the blank page, oh
You echo in the halls
Booked a ticket for tomorrow in Tempe
3 am, doing cartwheels down the hallway
I've been drinking since the day I set you free
But on this airport morning, will you wait for me?
I feel your shadow on this empty stage
I hear your music through the words
I see your picture on the blank page, oh
You echo in the halls
I feel your shadow on this empty stage
I hear your music through the words
I see your picture on the blank page, oh
You echo in the halls
I feel your shadow on this empty stage
I hear your music through the words
I see your picture on the blank page, oh
You echo in the halls

Leaving your soulmate thinking the grass is greener on the other side; only to realize it’s not and even with someone else official (GF), you realize you had your soulmate the whole time and it overwhelms you.. even being alone in a random hallway you still can’t stop thinking about the one; a constant echo in the empty halls….
(And then you grow the duck up; run into Rowan in a Trestle dirt lot; be real/open and hope to have a chance to even ride one bike park lap together. Finally you buy a ring, figure out if you propose at the WWWY 2023 SoCo concert or at Trestle on the chairlift and live an amazing life with some help from the Spaceman)
