I HOPE THIS IS NOT (PART 1) written by Sheldon Manoo (1993)

I been without a person to love me

For such a long long time

Though I‘ve searched here and there

There was no one I could find

Though I came close enough

But I didn’t know what to do

I really really need a lover

Now to see me through

            I hope this is not as I fear it would be

            I hope someday soon there’ll be someone waiting for me

            I hope this is not a permanent situation!

Oh I have many girl friends

Some like me more than that

But when we get a chance

The wrong place we’re at

            I hope this is not as I fear it would be

            I hope someday soon there’ll be someone waiting for me

            I hope this is not a permanent situation!

I have been lonely too long

I need a lover here for me

But just when someone perfect comes along

Someone else win her heart you see

            I hope this is not as I fear it would be

            I hope someday soon there’ll be someone waiting for me

            I hope this is not a permanent situation!

            I hope someday soon there’ll be someone waiting for me

A PERMANENT SITUATION (PART 2) written by Sheldon Manoo (1993)

Well now all the hours of waiting and just anticipating seems to go floating in the distance

Cause I met someone who seems to have a lot in common with me and willing to take a chance

Well I’m gonna give it my all and push harder for things we don’t seem to have at hand

I’m gonna make her believe in me and make her know that I’m a true and honourable man

Show her the way that The Lord say that believing in God can brighten up a love affair

And let her know at the times when she needs a helping hand I’m gonna be somewhere near

But you know how life gets crazy, all kinds of things happen!

So I hope that this is a permanent situation! Ohwohoh!

Musical Interlude

I’ll treat her with dignity, respect, grace and all other good ways and ways I can find to treat a lady

I’m gonna make her understand the kind of man I am so that she’d love and never leave me lonely

As long as I’m living to her I’ll let nothing bad happen!

I’m gonna do all I can to make this a permanent situation!
