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!
