 And the rain don’t fall when the sun is burning like hell!

And you don’t heed my words no matter how hard I yell!

If I lied to you and say I just want to get laid?

Will I get through faster or will you slap my face?

Well Miss Difficult, here it is, here’s a song just for you

These words are all I have to prove to you I’m true

Suddenly I’m falling faster, tell me how long is never

If you decide you could love me I got love that’s forever

            I’ll be loving you till love is a thing of the past

            I’ll be loving you till the day I die it’ll last

            If there wasn’t someone like you in this world

            Then I’d be loving some other girl

            But since you exist owwhh

            I’ll be loving you

            I’ll be loving loving loving

            Loving you!

 

And the time creeps slow when the moment you’re in is boring

And I’m so genuine it should be so reassuring

Somebody said and it makes sense, love is a two way street

So I’ll keep looking to find where our paths will meet

Do you think this song’s funny or do you think it’s cool?

Please know this is your song done by your love fool

Each other time I see you a little more grows the love

So next ten times I see you I’ll love you ten times more

            I’ll be loving you till love is a thing of the past

            I’ll be loving you till the day I die it’ll last

            If there wasn’t someone like you in this world

            Then I’d be loving some other girl

            But since you exist owwhh

            I’ll be loving you

            I’ll be loving loving loving

            Loving you!

            I’ll be loving you till love is a thing of the past

            I’ll be loving you till the day I die it’ll last

            If there wasn’t someone like you in this world

            Then I’d be loving some other girl

            But since you exist owwhh

            I’ll be loving you

            I’ll be loving loving loving

            Loving you!

 

And your friends don’t come when you’re feeling all alone

And if you would take me on I’ll be the best you ever known

I’ll defend you like a queen and protect you like a child

I’ll be your court jester for you to keep that smile

If I could just get through and do you believe in love?

If your body needs fixing I’m the man for the job

I’ll listen to your needs and give the things you say

You’re being so difficult, please don’t be that way

For       I’ll be loving you till love is a thing of the past

            I’ll be loving you till the day I die it’ll last

            If there wasn’t someone like you in this world

            Then I’d be loving some other girl

            But since you exist owwhh

            I’ll be loving you

            I’ll be loving loving loving

            Loving you!

            I’ll be loving you till love is a thing of the past

            I’ll be loving you till the day I die it’ll last

            If there wasn’t someone like you in this world

            Then I’d be loving some other girl

            But since you exist owwhh

            I’ll be loving you

            I’ll be loving loving loving

            Loving you!

            I’ll be loving you till love is a thing of the past

            I’ll be loving you till the day I die it’ll last

            If there wasn’t someone like you in this world

            Then I’d be loving some other girl

            But since you exist owwhh

            I’ll be loving you

            I’ll be loving loving loving

            Loving you!

 

THE POWER OF A WOMAN written by Sheldon Manoo (1997)

There’s nobody who’s ugly under my eyes

I have nothing to hide, I wear no disguise

I’m a man and I’m proud to be

And even more so I feel free

I like that way that I think

Alcohol I need not drink

And I don’t need to take no smoke

And I don’t make insulting jokes

God is a power I can’t resist

And there are two others after this

The power of music sets me free and

I’m weak by the power of a woman

A man who’s gay I tell ya he’s very strong

Whether it’s right or it’s wrong

That’s not the point I’m making now

It’s not about that anyhow

I say gay men are strong because they can

Resist the power of a woman

A weak man can’t resist

The power of a woman

 

When a lady comes too close to me

She exhumes that aura around me

Though I’m strong enough to resist

The power of another one’s kiss

But when my special woman comes around

My resistance gets broken down

But still I’ll never touch without being invited

She keeps me so happy and so exited

But many other men ain’t strong as me

So they get in trouble with other ladies

Yet still I ain’t so strong but

 

A man who’s gay I tell ya he’s very strong

Whether it’s right or it’s wrong

That’s not the point I’m making now

It’s not about that anyhow

I say gay men are strong because they can

Resist the power of a woman

A weak man can’t resist

The power of a woman

 

Hey ladies what has God given you

To make us do the things we do

How I wish I knew!

And to my lady for as long as I live

You can take and I will give

Your satisfaction is my happiness

And I’m pleased to lend a hand

To channel the power of a woman

To escape the trouble from my home

To face the things I can’t fight alone

Tears, won’t come to my eyes toning but I’m crying

Fear, kept me locked inside but I’m trying

To break freeeeeee!

Trying to break free

Who’s gonna help me

The only friend I can find

The only thing to ease my mind

And clear the dangers for a while

And set me straight and make me smile

It’s not something I can hold

I love how it lets me lose control

There’s a freedom dance inside my soul

Thanks , my good friend rock n’ roll

(Solo)

My good friend rock and roll

When I hear my music I lose control

The rhythm it is groovy

Oh it really soothes me

Rock n’ roll when the rockin’ roll play

I stand by the speaker let it blow me away

Rock n’ roll when the rockin starts

I praise my God, it’s sacred for my heart

 

Rock n roll is my friend

On whom I can depend

Rock an’ roll is so cool

Never would treat me cruel

Rock n’ roll my friend

We rock until the end

Rock n roll is my friend

On whom I can depend

Rock an’ roll is so cool

Never would treat me cruel

Rock n’ roll my friend

We rock until the end

 

Rock n’ roll my good friend

I’ll stand for your goodness no matter when

The beat is so rhythmic

It sounds so terrific

 

My good friend, you caress my soul

When I’m falling apart you put me back whole

My good friend you keep me calm

When danger lurks hold me in your arms

The arms of rock and roll

The arms of my good friend

BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME written by Sheldon Manoo (1997)

So you lost the dream you held for so long now

It’s kinda hurting your psyche remembering your solemn vow

You worked hard for the moment to make it all right

But when the battle dust cleared someone else won the fight

I can’t find no words of reassurance, the only comfort I can use

Is to tell you keep your persistence, keep following the dreams you choose

May you have better luck next time

For you laid it all on the line

Some days bitter and some days kind

I’m sure you’ll have better luck next time!

 

Your hyped shot of victory was your moment of despair

Go on take a rest now, ease your mind to be clear

Dreams come and go, quitters never succeed

Sometimes you got to stand clear, though you sweat, though you bleed

You’re only lost when you lose your soul, when the passion is gone and drifted

But if you keep striving to get your goal, at that moment of triumph you’ll be lifted

So may you have better luck next time

Cause determination is on your mind

And you’ve searched so long to find

You’re gonna have better luck next time

 

(Music)

 

May you have better luck next time

The next time is gonna be your time!

 

(Solo)

 

I just can’t find words of reassurance, so the only wisdom I got to share

In this life that’s full of turbulence, all I can say is hey hang in there!

And you’ll get better luck next time

The luck that’s pure, strong and divine

It will be a momentous peak in your life

When you have better luck next time,

 

Oh, better luck next time!

 

 

WHO AM I? written by Sheldon Manoo (1997)

Who am I?

Dey di di di di Wad da di da dum

Who am I?

What have I become?

What will be done?

 

I remember a place that was far away, in a time not long ago

Life used to be a cheerful dance, now it is a song of sorrow

This is not my rightful attire, it’s not my name they call me

Although those gates are open, I just don’t feel that I’m free

 

Who am I?

This is not who I used to be!

Who am I?

Unlock those chains from my mind!

Who am I?

Sail your ships from my country!

Who am I,

To allow you to make me blind?

 

You could beat my body, you could put me in your cell

You could kill my dreams with all the lies you sell

Who are you?

To think you’re better1

Who am I?

To just allow ya’

 

To come and take my land from me

And change the way I used to be

The way I survived for centuries

You gotta hear my peoples’ pleas

 

You standing there with your weapons destroying every detail of my culture

And my leaders are blinded by your money so there ain’t anything I could do but watch ya’

But I hold my dream of the beautiful vision I once knew

Cause I am me and I will never become like you

 

So you could kill me for my rebellion

For I will proudly die

With the knowledge that I’m someone

Who knows who am I!!!
