Every time I go to leave you
I can't say goodbye
No, no
Every time I go to leave you
I can't say goodbye
Time after time
And day after day
I said I got to get away
And work things out on my own, yeah
But you keep giving me
Just enough happiness
To keep me holding on
And every time I go to leave you
I can't say goodbye
Every time I go to leave you
I can't say goodbye
Face to face
Friend after friend said
"Why do you stay?"
They seem to not know what I'm going through
I appreciate
The way my friends feel about me
Oh, there ain't nothing
There ain't nothing I can do
'Cause every time I go to leave you
I can't say goodbye
Every time I go to leave you
I can't say goodbye
One time I even had my mind all made up
Until I reached the door
That's when I started thinking
I might not see you no more
Every time I go to leave you
I can't say goodbye
Every time I go to leave you
I can't say goodbye
I can't say goodbye, no
I just don't know how to say it
I can't say goodbye, no
I don't even know how to say so long
It hurts just to see you walk away from me
Every time I go to leave you, baby
I can't say goodbye
Oh no, oh
My mama done told me
My daddy done told me
All my friends done told me to leave you, baby
I can't do it, baby
Ooh, ooh, ooh
No, no
I won't do it, baby
Oh, oh, oh
