Hey, I got something to tell you
Would you listen to me now
You know I want to hold you
I wanna take that vow

I, I never felt so right
And if you don't believe me
Then I'd fade out of sight

Hey would you just believe me
You know just come and receive me
If love could really fill you up
Please note mine will never stop

Hey, that's all I got to say now
My heart is really pounding out
Hey it's all up to you
Now!

NOT THE GIRL FOR ME written by Sheldon Manoo (1999)

PLEASE NOTE THAT ANYONE CAN USE THESE LYRICS FREE OF CHARGE, ALL WE ASK IS TO CREDIT THE BLOG AND PLEASE IF POSSIBLE MAKE A DONATION!

Yeah Yeah!
Yeah Yeah!
Yeaaaah!

She acts so wonderful
And looks kinda incredible
They say she's beautiful
       Go on and be her man
She's simple irresistible
Intelligently practical
She cares for me, not actual
      but they don't understand

      She's not the girl for me
      Not the girl for me
      She's just a friend
      A little time we may spend
      But she's not.....the girl for me

I've known her very long
We kinda got something strong
Please listen to this song
     Maybe you will see

      She's not the girl for me
      Not the girl for me
      She's just a friend
      A little time we may spend
      But she's not.....the girl for me

      (Electric Guitar Solo)

Yeah she dances wild and free
It looks like she loves me
But I know her better you see
    Than you think you do
She's wonderful company
All this fun she could be
Carelessly foolishly
    She makes the best of you

     (Drum Solo)

      She's not the girl for me
      Not the girl for me
      She's just a friend
      A little time we may spend
      But she's not.....the girl for me

Her charm is eccentric
Her eyes are magnetic
And I feel terrific
    When she's so near
But I came to realise
When I look in her eyes
The truth behind the lies
    She wants no affair

      She's not the girl for me
      Not the girl for me
      She's just a friend
      A little time we may spend
      But she's not.....the girl for me

CONSOLATION SERENADE written by Sheldon Manoo (1999)

And they say life goes on!
But how could life go on
When part of you just died?

Oh in time it will be alright!
That's the consolation
Maybe it won't be found tonight
Any sort of reason

But now doubts and frustration and infinite sadness
Would have a feeling like a spiral of madness

BRIDGE:
In too much pain to cry
Hey Lord, can You tell me why?
I need to hear it from Your mouth
Why do now I have to live without,
The people who mean most to me?

Musical Interlude

Repeat BRIDGE 4 Times


JUST FOR ONCE written by Sheldon Manoo (1999)

And we can sit and talk about the high crime rate today
And we can touch ground on our leaders disenchantment
We could write to the paper to express our point of view
And about all the things that approves discouragement

We got a lot to learn tomorrow
When there's nothing left to borrow
But if you don't make way today
You're just gonna fade away

    Can we all
    Just for once
    in our lives,
    Come together
    Without our thoughts
    for one time?

What causes a baby nurtured by love to be so antagonistic
If I had an answer for everything, that'll be great
Come down to the party, we'll play for free
All we need is one big world escape

    Can we all
    Just for once
    in our lives,
    Come together
    Without our thoughts
    for one time?
    Just for one time!

     (Solo)

All the people with no conscience, hurting people infinitely
Just for this moment in time, I beg, I beg, I beg, Come and be without a worry! Yeah

    Can we all
    Just for once
    in our lives,
    Come together
    Without our thoughts
    for one time?
    Just for one time

And maybe we'd realise!
This is how we always wanna be!

MELODIC SONNET written by Sheldon Manoo 03/04/18

Render to my soul a song
Let me wear that melody
In a peaceful day to belong
Where I can convince my enemy
That music is made to uplift
Not confuffle the spirit
Or to set alight and adrift
And create healing magic
And when the rhythmic grove
Permeate the bones
Passion is abounded
Music made artistically
Brings peace of mind
Like a Heavenly trumpet sounded!


APRIL'S SONG written by Sheldon Manoo 03/04/18

I won't be a fool
To break the rule
And act so cool
Like I never thought I wanted love
We know that hearts
Are not so smart
And with every part
Must be guided from the One above

Ain't no April fool
So don't try your gags
Or any other month
You won't get me in your bag
The wisdom that I seek
Is from the One who is never weak
And can't be fooled!

F7      I'm a simple music man
Em7   With a simple music plan
Am7   In my hand

 F7      And I may never be great
Em7   But I'll hold on to my faith

         Em7 And I just love to write songs
         C7    For the people I know and love

Em7   And the words I sing are real
