Never Gonna Say Goodbye

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I never could admit when I was wrong, man

Even when I felt it in my bones

I always thought it meant I was a strong man

And I wondered why I was alone

That's when she stepped out of the ether

Right when I was ready for a dance

She said I don't know what I am doing either

But I know when to take a chance

I never knew how to be scared

Til I found something I knew I couldn't lose

And then a revelation trembled

Behind the tip of my own tongue

And like the last few boys at the Alamo

Like Cusack holding that stereo

Or what Juliet hears from Romeo

I'm never gonna say goodbye

There's not a way to someone's heart that she can't see

She lives and loves with everything she's got

My dark days showed me how to ask

Why me?

She's shown me how to ask

Why not?

She keeps a hopeful eye upon the future

She finds a way to share that hope with me

And the few times that she's met some sort of failure

She wins a little back by laughing at defeat

I never knew what life could be

So it stands to reason why I can't go back

And now a revelation trembles

From the bottom of my heart

And like the stock exchange for the billionaires

Like the convert singing his morning prayer

Or the scientist to the polar bear

I'm never gonna say goodbye

Like those last few boys at the Alamo

Like Cusack holding that stereo

Or what Juliet hears from Romeo

I'm never gonna say

Don't make me say

I'm never gonna say goodbye
