...NEITHER ONE OF US... by Gladys Knight & The Pips
-----------------------............................
*Released 1973*
Intro:
(x2)
Verse 1:
It's sad to think, we're not gonna make it,
And it's getting to the point, where we just can't fake it.
For some ungodly reason, we just won't let it die,
I guess neither one of us, (neither one of us),
Wants to be the first to say good-bye.
Verse 2:
I keep 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 our lie,
Because I guess, neither one of us, (neither one of us),
Wants to be the first to say good-bye.
Bridge 1:
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 only me,
That I'm deceiving.
/maj
When it comes to saying good-bye,
That's a simple word, that I just can-not say.
Verse 3:
There can be no way, there can be no way, (be no way),
This can't have a happy ending,
So we just go on, hurting and pre-tending.
Con-vincing ourselves,
To give it just one more try.
Because neither one of us, (neither one of us),
Wants to be the first to say;
Coda:
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;
Farewell my love, good-bye.
