Lyrics
I never can say goodbye, no, no, no, I
I never can say goodbye
Every time I think I've had enough
And start heading for the door
There's a very strange vibration
Piercing me right to the core
It says, "Turn around you fool
You know you love him more and more"
Tell me, why is it so
Don't want to let you go
Hey, I never can say goodbye, boy
Ooh-oh baby, I never can say goodbye, no, no, no, hey
I never can say goodbye, oh no, I (never can say goodbye)
I never can say goodbye (never can say goodbye)
I keep thinking that our problems
Soon are all gonna work out
But there's that same unhappy feeling
And that anguish and that doubt
It's that same old dizzy hang-up
I can't do with you or without
Tell me, why is it so
I don't want to let you go
Hey, I never can say goodbye, boy
Ooh-oh baby, I never can say goodbye, no, no, no, ooh
Hey, I never can say goodbye, boy
Ooh-oh baby, I never can say goodbye, no, no, no, no, no, no
Woo-hoo
Hey, I never can say goodbye, boy
No, no, no, baby
Hey, I never can say goodbye, no, no, no
Please don't let me say goodbye
Hey, I just cannot say goodbye
