Let Me Be The First To Know

Dinah Washington · Jazz Masters [2009]

Like one more time if our love ever grows cold



And this new thrill somehow grows old



Oh, when forever for us is no more



Don't tell our friends, baby



Let me be the first to know



When you no longer care



When my dreams, you no longer share



Tell me before it starts to show



You don't have to be ashamed



Just let me be the first to know



You love me now, I feel kind of sure



Kind of sure somehow



But in this game of romance



Forever, forever is a million to one chance



Ooh Lord, when my kiss becomes an everyday thing



And my voice becomes just a busy ring



Let me put on my disguise before you go break my heart



But leave my pride



I said, please, please, please



Lord, Lord, Lord, please, yeah, yeah, yeah



Yeah, yeah, yeah, let me be the first to know
