Never can say goodbye ('never say goodbye girl')
No, no, no, no... I
I never can say goodbye
Even though the pain and heartache seem to follow me wherever I go
Though I tried and tried to hide my feelings they always seem to show
Then you try to say you're leaving me and I always have to say no
Tell me why ('tell me why') is it so? ('is it so')
But I never can say goodbye ('never say goodbye girl')
No, no, no, no
I never can say goodbye
('never say goodbye girl')
Ev'ry time I think I've had enough and start heading for the door
There's a very strange vibration that pierces me right thru the core
It says turn around you fool you know you love her more and more
Tell me why ('tell me why') is it so? ('is it so')

Don't wanna let you go
I never can say goodbye girl
(never can say goodbye, girl)
Ohh, ohh, baby,
(don't wanna let you go, girl)
I never can say goodbye,
No, no, no, no, no, no

Ohh, I never can say goodbye girl
(never can say goodbye, girl)
Ohh, ohh, ohh,
(don't wanna let you go, baby) ('Ooh')
I never can say goodbye,
No, no, no, no, no, no,
Ohh

Never can say goodbye ('never say goodbye girl')
No, no, no, no
I never can say goodbye
('never say goodbye girl')
I keep thinkin' that our problems soon are all gonna work out
But there's that same unhappy feelin'
That there's that anguish, there's that doubt
It's that same old dizzy hang-up can't do with you or without
Tell me why ('Tell Me Why') is it so? ('Is it so')

Don't wanna let you go
I never can say goodbye girl
(never can say goodbye, girl)
Ohh, ohh, baby,
(baby)
I never can say goodbye
No, no, no, no, no, no

Ohh, I never can say goodbye girl
(never can say goodbye, girl)
Ohh, ohh, ohh,
(baby)
I never can say goodbye,
No, no, no, no, no, no,
Ohh

'Oh, girl, I never can say goodbye girl
(never can say goodbye girl)
Ooh, ooh baby
(baby)
I never can say goodbye,
No, no, no, no, no, no'

'Ooh ooh, I never can say goodbye girl
(never, never, never girl)
Ooh ooh, Oh
(baby)
I never can say goodbye
No, no, no, no, no, no (no no no)'
