Lyrics Never Can Say Goodbye - Single Version - The Jackson 5

I never can say goodbye, no, no, no, no, no
Never can say goodbye (say goodbye, girl)

Even though the pain and heartache
Seem 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 (tell me why)
Is it so? (Is it so?)

That I never can say goodbye, no, no, no, no, no
Never can say goodbye (say goodbye, girl)

Every time I think I've had enough
And start heading for the door
There's a very strange vibration
Piercing me right through the core

It says, turn around, you fool
You know you love him 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)
Ooh, ooh baby (don't wanna let you go, girl)
I never can say goodbye, no no no, no no no...
Ooh, oh I never can say goodbye girl (never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh, ooh, ooh (don't wanna let you go, girl)
I never can say goodbye, no no no, no no no, ooh

Never can say goodbye, no, no, no, no, no
Never can say goodbye (say goodbye, girl)

I keep thinking that our problems
Soon are all gonna work out
But there's that same unhappy feeling
And there's that anguish, there's that doubt

It's the same old dizzy hangup
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)
Ooh, ooh baby (hey baby)
I never can say goodbye, no no no, no no no
Ooh, oh I never can say goodbye, girl (never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh, oh (hey baby)
I never can say goodbye, no no no, no no no, ooh

I never can say goodbye, girl (never can say goodbye, girl)
Ooh, ooh baby (hey baby)
I never can say goodbye, no no no, no no no
Ooh, oh I never can say goodbye, girl
Ooh, oh (hey baby)
