Never Did Say Goodbye - Maxi Priest

Just one more chance with you, darling

Just one more chance

She wrote me her letters, she no longer cared

But the tears upon the paper said she lied, she lied

If only I’d listened, if only I’d tried

Then this house would still have been a home

Oh, tell me why it took us all so long to realize

Oh why?

It’s oh so obvious

Never did say goodbye

She never stopped to say goodbye, no

Never did say goodbye

She never stopped to say goodbye, no

If I could be with you and hold back my pride

And this love we’ll make it bind

We’ll look to the future, remembering the past

We’ll never lose our way again

Oh, tell me why it took us all so long to realize

Oh why?

It’s oh so obvious

Never did say goodbye

She never stopped to say goodbye, no

Never did say goodbye

She never stopped to say goodbye, no

Never did say goodbye

Just one more chance with you, darling

How can I survive without a reason to go on?

My baby’s not here to love me

How can I forget without a reason to go on?

My baby’s not here to love me

Ooh why?

Never did say goodbye

Never turned and said a reason why

Just one more chance with you, darling

Just one more chance yeah

Just one more chance with you, darling

Just one more chance, yeah

Never did say goodbye

Never turned and said a reason why

Never did say goodbye

Never turned and said a reason why

Just one more chance, baby

Just one more chance, yeah
