"Never Can Say Goodbye"... ♡
written by Clifton Davis
by The Jackson 5
popularized by Gloria Gaynor
cover by Isaac Hayes

I never can say goodbye
No, no, no, no... I
I never can say goodbye
Even tho' the pain and heartache seem to follow me wherever I go
Tho' 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, is it so

I never can say goodbye
No, no, no, no
I never can say goodbye
Ev'ry time I think I've had enough and start heading for the door
There's a very strange vibrations, piercing me right to the core
It says turn around you fool, you know you love her more and more
Tell me why, is it so
I don't wanna let you go
I  can't say goodbye
Ohh... I
I'll never say goodbye
(Never say goodbye, no matter how hard I try)

I never can say goodbye
No, no, no, no
I never can say goodbye
I keep thinkin' that our problems soon are gonna all work out
But there's that same unhappy feelin' that makes that anguish, twist that doubt
It's what that same old dizzy hang-up can't do with you or without
Tell me why, is it so
I don't wanna let you go
I  never can say goodbye
Ohh... I
I'll never say goodbye
(Don't say goodbye, no matter how hard I try)

I'll never, I never wanna say goodbye girl
Ohh, baby
I'll never say goodbye
(Don't say goodbye, no matter how hard I try)

Don't wanna let you go
I'll never say goodbye
You see, I need you so
I'll never say goodbye
(Don't say goodbye, no matter how hard I try)

I'll never, say goodbye
Ohh, baby
I'll never can say goodbye
(Don't say goodbye, no matter how hard I try)

I ain't gonna let you go
I can't say goodbye
I need you so
Oh, yeah
(Don't say goodbye, no matter how hard I try)

Can't get you outa my mind
I can't say goodbye
I want you all the time
I can't say goodbye
(Don't say goodbye, no matter how hard I try)

You know I want it only never
I can't say goodbye
Don't want to tell her
I can't say goodbye...
