Neither One of Us (Wants to Be the First to Say Goodbye) - Johnny Mathis

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

Oooh, for some ungodly reason we just won’t let it die

I guess neither one of us

Wants to be the first to say goodbye

I keep wondering

What I’m gonna do with out’cha

And I guess you must be wondering that same thing too

So we go on, go on together living a lie

Because neither one of us

Wants to be the first to say goodbye

Ooooohhh, ev’rytime I find the nerve

Ev’rytime I find the nerve to say I’m leavin'

Oooh, memories, those old memories get in my way

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, Lord knows it’s only me, oh, he knows it’s only me

That I’m deceiving

Oooohhhhh, when it comes to sayin' goodbye

That’s a simple word that I just cannot say

There can be no way, there can be no way

This can have a happy ending, no, no

So we just go on hurting and pretending

And convincing ourselves to give it just one more try

Because neither one of us

Wants to be the first to say

Neither one of us wants to be the first to say

Neither one of us wants to be the first to say

Fairwell my love, goodbye
