[Verse 1: Brian McKnight]
I hate it when I have to go
Girl, I'm gonna miss you so
But I don't want to ever say goodbye
You gotta believe me when I tell you that I don't want to leave
But I'll be thinking about you everywhere that I'm gonna be
But I'm not gonna ever say goodbye

[Chorus: Brian McKnight & Kimie Miner]
I'm not gonna say goodbye
Not gonna say goodbye
But I gotta leave cause I don't want you to see me cry
I'm not ever gonna let you see me cry

[Verse 2: Brian McKnight & Kimie Miner]
I'mma have to turn away
If I see your face I'll have to stay
But I'm not gonna ever say goodbye
You might not believe me
When I tell you that it's so hard to leave
But if I didn't have to go, I wouldn't go
But you might not agree
But I'm not ever gonna say good goodbye

[Chorus: Brian McKnight & Kimie Miner]
I'm not gonna say goodbye
Not gonna say goodbye
But I gotta leave
Cause I don't want you to see me cry

[Verse 3: Brian McKnight]
I do what I have to do then come back again
But it's so damn hard to sleep without you in my bed
Here is something that I don't ever want you to forget
That you're never off my mind or out of my head

[Outro: Brian McKnight & Kimie Miner]
You gotta believe me when I tell you that I don't wanna leave
But I'll be thinking about you everywhere that I'm gonna be, but
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm not gonna say
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm not gonna say
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm not gonna say
(I'm not gonna say)
Never in the morning
(I'm not gonna say)
Never in the evening
(I'm not gonna say)
Never when it's nice outside
(I'm not gonna say)
Never when it's stormy outside, baby
(I'm not gonna say)
Never gonna say it
(I'm not gonna say)
Never gonna say it
(I'm not gonna say)
Never when I'm mad at you
(I'm not gonna say)
Never when I'm glad at you
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm not gonna say it
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm not gonna say it
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm not gonna say it
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm not gonna say it
(I'm not gonna say)
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm not gonna say it
(I'm not gonna say)
Never gonna say it
(I'm not gonna say)
You've got me, you've got me
(I'm not gonna say)
Forever and ever, baby, never
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm never gonna say it
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm never gonna say it
(I'm not gonna say)
Never
(I'm not gonna say)
I'm never gonna say it
Never, never
