  • Hold on, I thought that I could take it from here
    Oh, I thought that I was gone and I'm cleared
    Now it's getting harder (ooh)
    Hold on, I thought that I was doing so well
    Oh, like everything was under a spell
    Now it's getting harder

    I never loved you fully in the way I could
    I fought the current running just the way you would
    And now I'm in the creek
    And it's getting harder
    I'm like falling water

    Go on and tell me just what I'm supposed to say
    As if it could be any other way
    Oh, it's getting louder
    Go on and tell me just how I could allow
    All that's light to end up somehow
    Where it's getting darker

    I never loved you fully in the way I could
    I fought the current running just the way you would
    And now I'm stuck upstream
    And it's getting harder
    I'm like falling water, falling water, falling water

    Mm, mm, mm, mm

    And I'm like falling water, set me free
    You were like falling water coming down on me

    I never loved you fully in the way I could
    I fought the current running just the way you would
    And now I'm in the creek

    I never gave you everything, I wish I could (and it was coming down on me)
    I should've seen it coming from where you stood (and I was standing in the creek)
    But now I'm in the creek (and I'm like falling water, set me free)
    (Now we're like falling water down in the creek)
    And it's getting harder (and it was coming down on me)
    And it was falling down on me (and I was standing in the creek)
    And I was standing in the creek (you were like falling water)
    I'm like falling water (now we're like falling water)
    (In the creek, ooh, ooh) Writer/s: Maggie Rogers, Rostam Batmanglij
