Gladys Knight & The Pips

(Jim Weatherly)



It's sad to think we're not gonna be here

And it's gotten to the point

Where we just can't fake it

For some ungodly reason

We just won't let it be



I guess neither one of us

Neither one of us wants to be the first to say good-bye



I keep wondering

Wondering

What I'm gonna do without you

And I guess you must be wondering the same thing too

So we go on

Go on together

Living a lie



Because I guess neither one of us

Neither one of us wants to be the first to say good-bye



Everytime I find the nerve

Everytime I find the nerve to say I'm leaving

Memories

Those old memories get in my way

Lord knows it's only me

Only know it's me

That I'm missing you

When it comes to saying good-bye

That 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

Convincing ourselves to give it just one more try



Because I guess neither one of us

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

Farewell my love

Goodbye
