Never Can Say goodbye - Lyrics

Never can say goodbye
No no no no, I
Never can say goodbye
Even though the pain and heartache
Seems to follow me wherever I go
Though I try and try 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
That I
Never can say goodbye
No no no no, I
Never can say goodbye

Everytime I think I've had enough
I start heading for the door
There's a very strange vibration
Piercin' me right to 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 can never can say goodbye, girl
(I never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh Ooh baby
(Hey baby)
I never can say goodbye
no no no no no no no no no no no
(I need to have you)
(Repeat)

Never could say goodbye
I never can say goodbye
(I never gonna say goodbye)
I never can say goodbye

[Repeat till fade]
