Lyrics

Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna give, never gonna give
Never gonna give, never gonna give
Never gonna give, never gonna give
Never gonna give, never gonna give
Never gonna give, never gonna give
Never gonna give, never gonna give
Never gonna give, never gonna give
Never gonna give, never gonna give
Never, never, never gonna give you up, never gonna
We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy
I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but
You're too shy to say it
Inside, we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it
And if you ask me how I'm feeling
Don't tell me you're too blind to see
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never gonna
Never gonna, never gonna, never gonna, never, never
Never gonna, never gonna, never -
