about

This is my prequel to Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up. This track features the girl in question telling him she's having second thoughts, before his response track reassures her.

#1 on Billboard Top 100: Mar 12, 1988

lyrics

[Verse 1]

I can feel your eyes
I can’t tell you no
If our love can change
I think you know we can't go on

You can never know
How wrong we can be
It’s too late for holding on
Say goodbye to what we knew

[Chorus]

When will I give you up
When will you need someone new
When will I give you up
Don’t want to live without you

[Verse 2]

Things just went so wrong
Every night I couldn't sleep
I will feel so blind
But if you ask I will say

Now your life can go on
We shouldn't keep holding on
Just ask and I will say
It’s too late to try

[Chorus]

[Verse 1]

[Chorus repeat to fade]
