John Hamilton Poet Lyric

I'Ll Never Tell You Goodbye

I'll never tell you goodbye

You might think, 
I've grown tired of you...
You might think, 
you're getting old...

You might think 
your beauty's faded...
You're not some antique 
that's bought and sold...

Bridge
Even if you forget my name,
Everything will stay the same
Isn't that what we promised in our vow?
Even if you say that we are through,
doesn't mean I'm giving up on you
I could never do that anyhow!

Chorus
I need you to believe,
to believe in love
I'll never, ever leave,
I'll never break your trust
I'm never going to change
my feelings for you
You don't have to worry,
there's nothing you need to do
I'll never tell you goodbye
I'll never tell you goodbye


You may have,
gained a few pounds,
but, you're always 
beautiful to me...

Better get used to me 
being around,
'cause it's impossible,
for me to leave

Bridge
Even if you forget my name,
Everything will stay the same
Isn't that what we promised in our vow?
Even if you say that we are through,
doesn't mean I'm giving up on you
I could never do that anyhow!

Chorus
I need you to believe,
to believe in love
I'll never, ever leave,
I'll never break your trust
I'm never going to change
my feelings for you
You don't have to worry,
there's nothing you need to do
I'll never tell you goodbye
I'll never tell you goodbye

I'll never tell you goodbye
I'll never tell you goodbye
repeat fade
