MY SONG, MY FRIEND written by Sheldon Manoo (1995)

Another song to get me through another night

I just had to lay on my bed and write

And the words can’t express my feeling

The feeling that I feel I’m needing

It may rhyme but the harmony

Is a little lost just like me

And I can’t sing as good as I should

But the song’s mine so I would

This song is like my friend

To help me through this again

 

            So here’s to me

            And what I stand for

            Thank me for believing in myself

            And here’s to you

            For lending an ear

            When there seem to be no one else

            My song, my friend

            I’m gonna sing for me again!

 

If I were to judge myself

I would be a perfect man

If I can lie to myself

I would be happy man

But I’m not the judge

And I’m not the liar

And I’m not the one

Who can take me higher

But since there’s no one there to do that

I guess I got to find me a way

And the only way that I can do it

Is to write a song when I feel estrange

Another song to get me through the time

I just had to express what’s on my mind

Though I’m never gonna get it all out

Behind a clear mind there lies a doubt

But of all this negative insecurity

It unmask and brings the poet in me

And this poem is like my friend

To get me through this thing again

            So here’s to me

            And what I stand for

            Thank me for believing in myself

            And here’s to you

            For lending an ear

            When there seem to be no one else

            My song, my friend

            I’m gonna sing for me again!

 

Sing for me again!

Here’s to me!

 

(solo)

 

            So here’s to me

            And what I stand for

            Thank me for believing in myself

            And here’s to you

            For lending an ear

            When there seem to be no one else

            My song, my friend

            I’m gonna sing for me again!

 

            My song, my friend!
