How to make a duet song??
Please see if my structure is correct. I tried man and woman/men and women, male/female, but nothing worked. The male sings the female's line and vice versa. I was so frustrated that I burned more than 150 credits to try to get it right. Thanks for your input!
Come Back To Me
[Instrumental intro: Bold pipe organ, gothic, timpani drums, theatrical][Opera setting]
[Verse 1][Female]
Beneath the starry night, I dream of you.
I wonder if you feel the same way too.
Love surrounds me, though I feel the cold.
Memories fade but never grow old.
[Verse 2][Female]
The stars above keep our secrets tight.
Your absence leaves a void each night.
[Verse 2][Male]
Through every night, I feel the same.
Your love’s the fire that calls my name.
[Verse 2][Female]
When will you return, my heart to save?
I pray for your safe return each day.
[Chorus1-duet]
[Duet]
The moon and stars know things.
Life without you never feels the same.
[Female]
I will wait for you; come back, be mine.
[Male]
I’ll find my way; just give me time.
[Duet]
When you return, we’ll let love revive.
[Verse 4]
[Female]
The days go on, but time ticks slow.
Loneliness grows, and the ache will show.
[Male][Softly]
Hold on for me, I"ll find the way.
[Female]
I hope you’ll return, never go away.
[Bridge]
[Female]
Whenever I dream, your voice is near.
[Female]
Fond memories bring both hope and tears.
[Male][echoing softly]
Fond memories bring both hope and tears.
[Female]
You say, “Wait for me, I’ll soon arrive.”
[Male]
Trust in our love; it keeps us alive.
[Chorus 2]
[duet][in harmony]
The moon and stars know our lives.
Life without you feels like endless goodbyes.
[female]
I’ll wait for you; come back, be mine.
[male]
Our love will stand beyond all time.
[duet]
When you return, we’ll let love revive.
[Outro]
[Male][gently]
Trust in our love; it keeps us alive.
[Female][softly]
I’ll wait for you; come back, be mine.
