Echoes

Echoes of the cars and trucks
Songs the radio played
Echoes of a cushioned seat
Where a child's head was laid

Echoes of the hubs that shined
Tires now gone flat
Echoes of the steering wheel
Where the driver proudly sat

Echoes of the school bus
The teams that lost and won
Echoes of the trucker
And all the miles that he'd done

Echoes of the people
Of all their hopes and dreams
Echoes of the wrecks
And now the muted screams

Echoes of this salvage yard
Echoes of this place
Echoes of the days gone by
Echoes of the human race.
