Hall & Oates - Neither One Of Us (Wants To Be The First To Say Goodbye) Lyrics

It's sad to think that we're not gonna make it, oh no
And it's gotten to the point
Where we just can't fake it, oh
For some forgotten reason
We just won't let it die, let it die

I guess neither one of us
Wants to be the first to say goodbye

Oh, I keep on wondering, wondering
What I'm gonna do without you, oh
Oh, and I guess you must be wondering
Wondering that same thing too

Oh, so we go on, go on together
Smiling on, livin' a lie
Because neither one of us, oh, no
Wants to be the first to say goodbye

Oh, every time I find the nerve
Every time I find the nerve to say, I'm leaving
Old memories, those old memories
Get in my way

Lord knows it's only me, oh, she know it's only me
Oh, that I miss her, oh
Just when it comes to saying goodbye
That's such a simple word that I just can't say
I just can't say

There can be no way
That we could have a happy ending
Oh, no, so we just go on, go on
Hurting and pretending
Convincing ourselves to give it
Just one more try, one more try

Because neither one of us
Wants to be the first to say
Neither one of us
Wanna be the first to say

Neither one of us
Wants to be the first to say
Farewell, my love, goodbye
