SKEPTICAL written by Sheldon Manoo (1995)

Four years can change a person’s perspective

And maybe lead them to a new directive

But we stuck together through a lot

We could have parted but we did not

And we touch each other tender now and then

And talk like we’re each other’s’ only friend

But you know it’s still on my mind

I just can’t put everything behind

            I’m still a bit skeptical

            About what you mean to me

            And the trust we once shared

            It’s hurt pride talking

            When I tell you that

            I really just don’t care

 

The first year of our love was paradise

I could swear I saw magic in your eyes

We had our share of disagreements

But I didn’t accept that disappointment

In the course of our second year

That incident made me share many a tear,     so

            I’m still a bit skeptical

            About what you mean to me

            And the trust we once shared

            It’s hurt pride talking

            When I tell you that

            I really just don’t care

 

I can’t say it changed my perception

I can’t blame you thoroughly for that deception

Cause I was behaving a bit conceited

It could be my fault too, you cheated     but

            I’m still a bit skeptical

            About what you mean to me

            And the trust we once shared

            It’s hurt pride talking

            When I tell you that

            I really just don’t care

 

In our third year we made some bad indications

Got our affair in a messy situation, oh

 

(Solo)

 

And last month when we talked to set things clear

We both realized our feelings were still there, Yeah

 

(Music)

 

 

Though I never cheated on you

There were times I sure did feel to

Maybe it was a feeling of getting even

But I never had good opportunities for it to happen

            So maybe you get skeptical

            When I come home a little late

            But I’m past that turmoil stage

            I don’t feel the urge to anymore

            I guess I have grown

            I should just turn the page

 

I’m looking forward for our fifth year

I’m gonna try to keep you dear

I’ve had so many friends who changed partners

At times it really makes me wonder

Then I consider all that we got

Staying together it’s quite a lot,   even though

            I’m still a bit skeptical

            About what you mean to me

            And the trust we once shared

            It’s hurt pride talking

            When I tell you that

            I really just don’t care

 

What I’m really hoping from you is

To remember and keep our first promises

To have a love that’s secure and enchanted

The kind of love that every one once wanted

I want our lives moulded together as the dreams we believe

And you’d give to me exactly the feelings you’d receive

I want neither of us to hold skeptical thinking

And when we’re close to death we’ll feel the same thing.
