Let me be the first to say, , , Ain't it always so? But there's no other way to find out What I need to know It's not that I don't think you care It's what you haven't said That keeps me guessing day and night Putting visions in my head Don't let me be the last If you thought of leaving would you tell me? Don't let me be the last If the truth would hurt me would you lie to me? Don't you keep it to yourself for my protection Break it to me now Don't let me be the last If there's anything you wanna tell me Don't let me be the last Like you're never gonna let me go Baby, all I ask Don't let me be the last to know You know how all friends will talk A secret's hard to keep But this girl she says you're seeing Sure sounds a lot like me Still it's not for me to say If what I heard was true And I won't let myself believe a word Till I hear it from you Don't let me be the last If you thought of leaving would you tell me? Don't let me be the last If the truth would hurt me would you lie to me? Don't you keep it to yourself for my protection Break it to me now Don't let me be the last If there's anything you wanna tell me Don't let me be the last Like you're never gonna let me go, don't let me go Baby, all I ask Don't let me be the last to know
