[00:14.25]Boy we've known each other now for quite some time
[00:20.36]Long enough to feel when something's on our minds
[00:26.36]You know I'm not the type to jump to any conclusion
[00:31.53]But before you speak I just want you to listen I
[00:38.21]I don't want to be the last
[00:41.06]I don't want to be the last to know
[00:44.15]I don't want to be
[00:47.40]If you ever think about leavin'
[00:50.69]I don't want to be the last
[00:53.00]Don't let me be
[00:54.10]I don't want to be the last to know
[00:56.82]If you're gonna leave
[01:04.23]Rest assured it's only rumors floating around
[01:09.99]And though you think you're just a little bit premature
[01:13.70]It's good to talk it out
[01:16.63]We've got to listen to our heart instead of to the street
[01:22.49]So let's talk it over
[01:23.74]The same thing goes for me

[02:19.50]I remember when we had an understanding
[02:25.68]If I feel this change you'll be the first to know
[02:29.86]If I've got to go away get away get away
[02:40.58]Love never promised any guarantee
[02:43.31]That we'd make it but I can take it
[02:46.93]If it can't be what it's been
[02:49.34]Please don't fake it hear me baby
[02:53.15]Before we say that final goodbye
[02:55.90]Why not give our love just one more try
[02:59.31]And I promise you if I can't hang
[03:02.75]You're gonna be the first to know
