lyrics

She was just a little girl so nobody explained
She was too young to understand
Why her mommy didn’t stay
Told herself if she was good and put her toys away
Life would go back to the way it was
Before that fateful day

Don’t cry my dear, I’m always near

Said the man with the heart of gold
I am here to take you in from the cold
I’m the man with the heart of gold
Don’t you fear, I’ll make this house a home

He was just 18 years old when he heard the doctor say
There was something going wrong inside
But at the early stage
Gathered all his courage, looked his challenge in the face
And when the pain was too much to bear
He closed his eyes and prayed

Don’t cry my dear, I’ll be right here

Said the man with the heart of gold
I am here to take you in from the cold
I’m the man with the heart of gold
Don’t you fear, I will give you hope

Looking in the mirror I’m proud to see
The man with the heart of gold is in me
And the brave young man and little girl
Now have found the love they so deserve

He’s the man, with the heart of gold
He is here to take you in from the cold
He’s the man, with the heart of gold
Don’t you fear, he’ll never leave you alone

Jewelle McKenzie Montreal, Québec

Ain’t It Good, which Jewelle wrote and produced, combines Swing, R&B, and Jazz, spiced with Gospel vocals and a little Rock for an eclectic style that is all her own, making the bold statement that she is not a woman looking for anyone’s approval. Clearly she makes no concessions to pop trends or compromises the character of her artistry as she charms and disarms with her voice and music. ... more
