Lyrics:

"Neither One Of Us (Wants To Be The First To Say Goodbye)"

It's sad to think we're not gonna make it
And it's gotten to the point
Where we just can't fake it
For some ungodly reason
We just won't let it die (Let it die)
I guess neither one of us (Neither one of us)
Wants to be the first to say goodbye

I keep wondering (Wondering)
What I'm gonna do without you (Do without you)
And I guess you must be wondering the same thing too
So we go on
Go on together
Living a lie (Living a lie)
Because neither one of us (Neither one of us)
Wants to be the first to say goodbye

Everytime I find the nerve
Everytime I find the nerve to say I'm leaving (Leaving)
Old memories, those old memories get in my way (My way, my way)
Lord knows it's only me
Oh He knows it's only me
That I'm decieving
When it comes to saying goodbye
That's a simple word that I just cannot say

There can be no way
There can be no way (Be no way)
This can't have a happy ending (Happy ending)
No, no
So we just go on (We go on)
Hurting and pretending
Convincing ourselves to give it just one more try (One more try)
Because neither one of us (Neither one of us) wants to be the first to say
Neither one of us (Neither one of us) wants to be the first to say
Neither one of us (Neither one of us) wants to be the first to say
Farewell, my love
Goodbye (Goodbye)
