From the wiki: “‘We’ll Never Have to Say Goodbye Again’ was written by Jeffrey Comanor, and was first recorded by him in 1975 for release on the album A Rumor In His Own Time.

“‘England’ Dan Seals became familiar with the song while working as a session guitarist on a 1976 cover recording by Deardorf & Joseph. Three years later, in 1979, Seals and his partner, John Ford Coley, covered ‘We’ll Never Have to Say Goodbye Again’ themselves and took the song into the US Top 10 (included on their album Some Things Don’t Come Easy).”
