Never Gonna Say Goodbye - Dawes

I never could admit when I was wrong then

Even when I felt it in my bones

I always thought it meant

I was a strong man

I wondered why I was alone

That's when she stepped out of the ether

Right when I was ready for a dance

She said I don't know

what I am doin' either

But I know when to take a chance

I never knew

How to be scared

'Til I found somethin' I knew

I couldn't lose

And then the revelation trembled

From the tip of my own tongue

Like the last few boys at the alamo

Like Cusack holdin' that stereo

What Juliet hears from Romeo

I'm never gonna say goodbye

There's not a way to someone's heart

that she can't see

She lives and loves

with everything she's got

My dark days showed me how to ask

Why me

She's shown me how to ask

Why not

She keeps a hopeful eye upon the future

She finds a way to share that hope with me

And the few times

that she's met some sort of failure

She wins a little back by laughin' at defeat

I never knew

What life could be

So it stands to reason why I can't go back

And now a revelation trembles

From the bottom of my heart

And like the stock exchange

for the billionaires

Like a convert singin' his morning prayers

From the scientist to the polar bears

I'm never gonna say goodbye

Like the last few boys at the alamo

Like Cusack holdin' up that stereo

What Juliet hears from Romeo

I'm never gonna say

Don't make me say

I'm never gonna say goodbye
