Sound waves, like physical objects, can "bounce" (if they are not absorbed by soft surfaces). The same way a ball hits the floor and uses the energy of impact to rebound, sound waves can hit the walls of a cave or empty room and return in roughly the same direction they came from.

Why does a ball bounce higher on floor than rug?
A ball bounces higher on a hard floor compared to a rug because the floor is more rigid and provides a better surface for bouncing. The rug absorbs some of the energy from the ball, resulting in a lower bounce.
Why is energy lost during bouncing?
A lot of things happen when an object bounces. Some of the objects energy, or momentum, goes into the floor which causes the surrounding floor to warm up slightly. Also, there is inefficiency that will cause the ball to eventually stop bouncing. Also, hearing the ball hit the floor means that energy went into the surrounding air molecules, causing them to heat up slightly as well as allowing you to hear the ball hit the floor. All of this causes energy to be lost in the bouncing.
