Let me be the first to say
Ain't it always so? 
But there's no other way to find out 
What I need to know 
It's not that I don't think you care 
It's what you haven't said 
That keeps me guessing day and night 
Putting visions in my head 

Don't let me be the last 
(If you thought of leaving would you tell me?) 
Don't let me be the last 
(If the truth would hurt me) Would you lie to me? (What would you say?) 
Don't you keep it to yourself for my protection 
Break it to me now 
Don't let me be the last 
(If there's anything you want to tell me) 
Don't let me be the last 
(Like you're never gonna let me go) 
Oh, baby, all I ask 
Don't let me be the last to know 

You know how a friend will talk 
A secret's hard to keep 
But this girl she says you're seeing 
Sure sounds a lot like me 
Still it's not for me to say 
If what I heard was true 
And I won't let myself believe a word 
Till I hear it from you

Don't let me be the last 
(If you thought of leaving would you tell me?) 
Don't let me be the last 
(If the truth would hurt me) Would you lie to me? (What would you say?) 
Oh, don't you keep it to yourself for my protection 
Just break it to me now 
Don't let me be the last 
(If there's anything you want to tell me) 
Don't let me be the last 
(Like you're never gonna let me go) 
Don't let me go
Baby, all I ask
Don't let me be the last to know

Don't let me be the last 
(If you thought of leaving would you tell me?) 
Don't let me be the last 
(If the truth would hurt me) Would you lie to me? (What would you say?) 
Oh, don't you keep it to yourself for my protection 
Just break it to me now 
Don't let me be the last 
(If there's anything you want to tell me) 
Don't let me be the last 
(Like you're never gonna let me go) Would you lie to me?
Baby, all I ask
Don't let me be the last to know
