To Jordan Knight's "Say Goodbye" duet with Deborah Gibson:
There are a couple lines I'm not sure I've gotten right, so if anyone else hears something different let me know!
Verse 1:
Jordan:
Yeaaah…
I’ve been so lost lately
I don’t really understand baby, where did I go wrong?
I want to talk to you, please call
Deborah:
Will I begin with you
After all that we’ve been through
I don’t think it would be right if we
Got together so suddenly
Jordan:
I wish that I could take back all of the things that I said
And replace them with simply I love you instead
CHORUS:
Deborah:
You didn’t want to say goodbye
But you never really seemed like you want to try
Jordan:
But I really wanted you to stay
But then I let you just slip away
Deborah:
If you didn’t listen to your heart inside
Then it really doesn’t matter what was on your mind
And if you need me then tell me why
Jordan:
Girl, I never meant to say goodbye
[End Chorus]
[Music, mmmm’s and oh yeaaah’s] (those classic Jordan falsetto things he puts in ballads)
Verse 2:
Jordan:
I think about the past baby
Why we couldn’t make it last, lady
I know you still have doubts,
But I’m going to prove that we can work things out
Deborah:
I want to be sure that you
Know what you put me through
And reveal that you intend
To never let me down again
Jordan:
It’s clear to me and I can’t ignore,
That I have to give you something
I couldn’t before
CHORUS
Verse 3:
Deborah:
Didn’t think that we would come to this
Jordan:
Why did you face your smile with what I miss
Deborah:
Why did you wait so long to take me back
Both:
It’s all a simple misunderstanding
Repeat CHORUS x2 (the repeating chorus overlaps the 1st one slightly towards the end… it almost sounds like some of the lines of the chorus repeat a 3rd time on top of the 2nd full repeat).
