[Jordan]
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

[Jordan]
I wish that I could take back
All of the things that I said
And replace them with simply
'I love you' instead

Refren:
[Deborah]
You don’t wanna say goodbye
But you never really seem like you wanna try
[Jordan]
But I only wanted you to stay
And 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 (oh, yeah, yeah)

[Jordan]
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

[Deborah]
I wanna 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

Refren:
[Deborah]
You don’t wanna say goodbye
But you never really seem like you wanna try
[Jordan]
But I only wanted you to stay
And 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

[Deborah]
I didn’t think that we would come to this, ooh, no
[Jordan]
Your eyes, your face, your smile is what I miss
[Deborah]
Why did you wait so long to take me back
[Deborah & Jordan]
It’s all a simple misunderstanding

Refren:
[Deborah]
You don’t wanna say goodbye
But you never really seem like you wanna try
[Jordan]
But I only wanted you to stay
And 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

Refren:
[Deborah]
You don’t wanna say goodbye
But you never really seem like you wanna try
[Jordan]
But I only wanted you to stay
And 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
