Richard "Dick" Rudolph - I Don't Wanna Be the Last to Know lyrics

[Verse 1] Boy we've known each other now for quite some time Long enough to feel when something's on our minds You know I'm not the type to jump to any conclusion But before you speak, I just want you to listen. I' [Hook] (I don't want to be the last I don't want to be the last to know I don't want to be.) If you ever think about leavin' (I don't want to be the last.) Don't let me be (I don't want to be the last to know.) If you're gonna leave [Verse 2] Rest a**ured it's only rumors floatin' 'round And though you think you're just a little bit premature It's good to talk it out We've got to listen to our heart instead of to the street So let's talk it over The same thing goes for me Baby I don't wanna be [Hook ] Just give love that respect If you ever want to say goodbye (I don't want to be the last.) (Tell me why!) (I don't want to be the last to know.) (If You're going to leave.) Don't let me be the last [Chorus] I remember when we, had an understanding If I feel this change you'll be the first to know (If I've got to go away get away get away.) [Verse 3] Love never promised any guarantee That we'd make it. But I can take it If it can't be what it's been Please don't fake it. Hear me baby [Verse 4] Before we say that final goodbye Why not give our love just one more try And I promise you if I can't hang You're gonna be the first to know I wanna hear it from you for myself No, don't let me hear it baby nowhere else That's all I want That's all I ask! (Don't let me be, oh baby please,) (I don't wanna be) (I don't want to be the last.) To know (I don't want to be the last to know.) I won't forget (I don't want to be.) If somethin's on your mind, tell me please But Baby don't let me be (I don't want to be the last.) The last to know (I don't want to be the last to know.) Give me that respect (If you're gonna leave.) For the time we've spent (Don't let me be, oh baby please,) (I don't wanna be) (I don't want to be the last.) To know (I don't want to be the last to know.) No, no, no
