HOWARD JONES - Let me be the first one to know lyrics

If you find a time when things just seem to fall apart

And there's no way to keep a cheery face

When the sight of your own reflection only breaks your heart

And all your dreams have given up the chase

Pick up the telephone

You know I'm always home

Any old time of night or day

Let me be the first to know

Let me be the first to know

Let me be the first to know

If you find a time when you just have to walk away

Because of a call to pastures new

You're in need of some fresh words to wish you on your way

You need to fly on up and touch the moon

Sharing this temporary weight

No time to hesitate

I will be everything you need

Let me be the first to know

Let me be the first to know

Let me be the first to know

Let me be the first ...

We're water breaking on an endless wave

Potential bursting from the sea

Compassion is what sets our minds apart

Be cheerful when you break

The chains of morality

Oo, sharing this welcome weight

Don't even hesitate

I will be everything you need

Let me be the first to know

Let me be the first to know

Let me be the first to know

Let me be the first to know

Let me be the first one to know
