Lyrics

Echoes I can hear you (hear you, hear you)
Though I can’t get near you (near you, near you)
You’re so far away (away, away)

Beth, do you have any more info on source for this?

No, sorry, I don’t.
I used this song with the game 4 Corners. The whole class sang the leader part with their eyes closed. The students in the 4 corners had to sing the echo part and the class had to figure out who was singing and what corner they were in. (For moving 4 corners, they could only move while they sang.)
That’s a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
Do you know what CD the Echo song is from?
No I don’t.
