John Sebastian
Didn’t Want to Have to Do It
Didn't wanna have to do it
Didn't wanna have to break your heart
Didn't wanna have to do it
I kept hopin' from the very start
But you kept on tryin'
And I knew you'd end up cryin'
And I knew I didn't wanna have to do it at all

Didn't wanna have to do it
Didn't wanna have to be the one to say it
Hey, didn't wanna have to do it
I kept hopin' there'd be something to delay it again
Yeah, yeah
No, I didn't wanna have to be the one to say "The end"

Was a time that I thought that love could fly
Never, never fall
Why should I suppose we never really meant
To be close to each other at all?

No, I didn't wanna have to do it
Didn't wanna have to be the one to say it
Hey, hey, didn't wanna have to do it
I kept hopin' there'd be something to delay it again
Yeah, but then
No, I didn't wanna have to be the one to say "The end"
No, no, not "The end"
No, I didn't wanna have to
Didn't wanna have to be the one to do
I didn't wanna have to say "The end"
No, I didn't wanna have to say "It's the end"
Didn't wanna have to do
Didn't wanna have to do
