  • On the way down, a fall from grace
    I was in for a heavy one when I could feel you pull away
    On the way down, it was too much to take
    Even though I tried, it was never enough for running in the same damn place

    But I never stopped or gave up
    I couldn't ever let you go
    'Cause in the end, I was innocent, I was innocent
    I let you know that it's no good
    But you could never say it first
    I know you're hurt
    Tell me how you feel, tell me how you feel

    'Cause I got something to tell you, but I don't know why
    It's so hard to let you know that we're not seeing eye to eye
    Because I know if I tell you that everything's alright
    Oh, we could stay in this moment, I'd never say goodbye
    Oh, I'll never say goodbye

    Heavy was the sound I could not lift
    I could run for a million miles and never get away from it
    But knowing that now, I couldn't be content
    Even when it was looking up for us, it was difficult to pretend

    But I never stopped or gave up
    I couldn't ever let you go
    'Cause in the end, I was innocent, I was innocent
    I let you know that it's no good
    But you could never say it first
    I know you're hurt
    Tell me how you feel, tell me how you feel

    'Cause I got something to tell you, but I don't know why
    It's so hard to let you know that we're not seeing eye to eye
    Because I know if I tell you that everything's alright
    Oh, we could stay in this moment, I'd never say goodbye
    Oh, I'll never say goodbye

    I never stopped or gave up
    I couldn't ever let you go
    'Cause in the end, (I was innocent)
    I never stopped or gave up
    I couldn't ever let you go
    'Cause in the end, baby, (I was innocent)
    I never stopped or gave up
    I couldn't ever let you go
    'Cause in the end, I was innocent, I was innocent
    I let you know that it's no good
    But you could never say it first
    I know you're hurt
    Tell me how you feel, tell me how you feel

    'Cause I got something to tell you, but I don't know why
    It's so hard to let you know that we're not seeing eye to eye
    Because I know if I tell you that everything's alright
    Oh, we could stay in this moment, I'd never say goodbye
    Oh, I'll never say goodbye
    But I don't know why
    It's so hard to let you know that we're not seeing eye to eye
    Because I know if I tell you that everything's alright
    Oh, we could stay in this moment, I'd never say goodbye
    Oh, I'll never say goodbye

    Never say goodbye
    Oh, I'll never say goodbye
    Never say goodbye
    Oh, I'll never say goodbye
    Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
    Never say goodbye
    Oh, I'll never say goodbye Writer/s: Alana Mychal Haim, Ariel Zvi Rechtshaid, Danielle Sari Haim, Este Arielle Haim
