[Lyric] Didnt Want to Have to Do It (Roger Nichols and the Small Circle of Friends)

[Verse 1]
Didn't wanna have to do it
Didn't wanna have to break your heart
Didn't wanna have to do it
I kept a-hopin' from the very start
But you kept on a-tryin'
And I knew that you'd end up a-cryin'
And I knew I didn't wanna have to do it at all

[Verse 2]
Didn't wanna have to do it
Didn't wanna have to be the one to say it
Didn't wanna have to do it
I kept a-hopin' there'd be somethin' to delay it
Again
Yeah, but then
No, I didn't wanna have to be the one to say, "The end"

[Bridge]
Was a time that I thought our love could fly
And never, never fall
Why should I suppose we werе never really mеant
To be close to each other at all?
Oh, no, I...
[Verse 3]
Didn't wanna have to do it (Didn't wanna have to do it)
Didn't wanna have to be the one to say it (I didn't wanna have to say it)
Didn't wanna have to do it (Didn't wanna have to do it)
I kept a-hopin' there'd be somethin' to delay it
Again
Yeah, but then
No, I didn't wanna have to be the one to say, "The end"
