I'm Not Going to Be the First

We haven’t seen things eye to eye in oh, so long. You keep telling me not to worry. You say we’ll work it out. But girl, I hope you’ll forgive me if I say I have my doubts. Should I be planning on leaving, or do you want me to stay? Girl, don’t keep me guessing, let me know either way. I don’t want to be the first to say goodbye. I don’t want to be the one to bring our world tumbling down. I don’t want to say it’s over. I can’t believe that we’re through. So, I’m not going to be the first to say goodbye. Something in your eyes has told me that you’re not satisfied, but I’m finding it hard believing the love we shared has died. I promise I’ll make things better. I hope it’s not too late. Do you believe it’s worth the effort? Tell me now, I just can’t wait. Do you think we can make it? Should I give up and go on? Girl, if it’s really over, don’t keep leading me on. I don’t want to be the first to say goodbye. I don’t want to be the one to bring our world tumbling down. I don’t want to say it’s over. I can’t believe that we’re through. So, I’m not going to be the first to say goodbye. Is the fire we started still burning somewhere in your heart? Tell me you still feel some warmth, at least a little spark. If there is, I'll fan the embers and reignite the flame. I keep thinking there’s a chance we can find it once again. Should I pull you closer, or should I let you go? It’s time to take some action, baby let me know. I don’t want to be the first to say goodbye. I don’t want to be the one to bring our world tumbling down. I don’t want to say it’s over. I can’t believe that we’re through. So, I’m not going to be the first to say goodbye.
