Never Can Say Goodbye (Alternate Version)

[Intro: The Jackson 5]

Woo-ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh

[Verse 1: Michael Jackson, The Jackson 5]

Never can say goodbye

(Never can say goodbye, girl)

No, no, no, no, I

Never can say goodbye

(Never can say goodbye, girl)

[Bridge: Michael Jackson, The Jackson 5]

Even though the pain and heartache

Seems to follow me wherever I go

Though 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 (Tell me why) is it so (is it so) that I

[Verse 2: Michael Jackson, The Jackson 5]

Never can say goodbye

(Never can say goodbye, girl)

No, no, no, no, I

Never can say goodbye

(Never can say goodbye, girl)

[Bridge: Michael Jackson, The Jackson 5]

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'll love her more and more"

Tell me why (Tell me why) is it so (is it so)

Don't wanna let you go

[Refrain: Michael Jackson, The Jackson 5]

I 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 got to have you, I never can say goodbye, girl

(I never can say goodbye, girl)

No, no, no (Hey, baby)

I never can say goodbye

(No-no-no, no-no-no, no-no-no, no-no)

[Outro: Michael Jackson, Jermaine Jackson, The Jackson 5]

Never could say goodbye

We're singing goodbye

We're singing goodbye

I never can say goodbye, girl

I'm never gonna say goodbye, baby

I got to have you, I never can say goodbye, ah yeah

I'll never, never, never, never

I never can say goodbye, girl

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

I got to have you, I never can say goodbye, ah yeah

Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

No-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no-no (Oh, you, you, you)

I never can say goodbye, girl

I'm never gonna say goodbye, baby

I never could say goodbye, ah yeah

I'm never gonna say...
