Jordan Knight & Deborah Gibson - Say Goodbye

I love music. I LOVE songs. I L-O-V-E songs that are meaningful.

I listen to MixFM quite frequent nowadays, especially at night. I found that listening to radio channel is quite relaxing at times. Listening to radio channel is much more worthy than buying a CD, to be honest. I have a new hobby now - listening to radio. =D


This song by Jordan Knight and Deborah Gibson caught my attention lately. It is called "Say Goodbye". Jordan Knight was the lead singer of a successful boyband during the 80's, New Kids From The Block. Yupe, the same band as Joey McIntyre. And Deborah Gibson was also a popular singer from the 80's. I seriously can't believe that after so many years, the two of the finally have a duet together. That song is just...sad.


I do not particularly like farewell songs or break-up songs, but the lyrics of that song is quite true. I believe that is what most people feel after their break-ups. They feel lost, yet they try to mend their relationship and give it a shot again. In the end, they realize it is too late and there is no other word than "goodbye".

Jordan Knight & Deborah Gibson - Say Goodbye


-Jordan-
Yeah I've been so lost lately
I don't really understand baby
Where did I go wrong
I wanna talk to you
Please call

-Deborah-
Where do I begin with you
after all that we've been through
I don't think that it would be right if we
got together so suddenly

-J-I wish that I could take back all of the things that I said
and replace them with simply
I love you instead

-Chorus-
-D-You didn't wanna say goodbye
But you never really seem like you wanna try

-J-But I only wanter you to stay
and then I let you just slip away

-D-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

-J-Girl, I never meant to say goodbye
-chorus-

-J-I think about the past baby
Why we couldn't make it last, lady
I know you still have doubts
But I'm gonna prove that we can work things out

-D-I wanna be sure that you
know what you put me through and
reveal that you intend
to never let me down again

-J-It's clear to me and I can't ignore
that I have to give you something
I couldn't before

-Repeat chorus-

-D-I didn't think that we would come to this

-J-Ooh, no Your eyes, your face, your smile is what I miss

-D-Why did you wait so long to take me back

-D&J-It's all a simple misunderstanding

-Repeat chorus twice-


Hope you enjoy the song.
