THE FLAME written by Sheldon Manoo (Sat/09/02/91)


I think we should hold on to what we got
Although it’s not quite a lot
I know I can’t give you everything you want
But you know I can give you all my love
You gave your heart to me and I gave you mine
You said you’d be loving me all the time
When I hold you in my arms I know you feel protected
And then you fill me with your charms, it’s just what I expected
So don’t go away!
            I need you to stay
            Let’s start the flame again
            Every single day
            I will be your friend
            Don’t let the water flood your heart
            Let’s start the fire up again
            Don’ t let us go apart
            Let’s start the flame again

I think you should ignore all that your friends say
Because they just want to turn you away
It’s time you understand what I feel inside
Don’t let me cry, don’t make me cry
If you leave me now you know what would happen to you and I
The love and life in our hearts would die
You won’t have to complain, anymore, Don’t heed what they say!
            I need you every day
            Let the flame keep burning
            From May to May
            Keep the flame from turning
            I know that it is cold
            But don’t let it freeze your soul
            Let me always be yearning
            And let me be owning,  your heart
            And keep the flame shinning
            Shinning out the love we got
(slowly)And make it quite a lot!
