Artist picture
English lyricist working with dozens of composers and artists
I am a lyricist working with many composers and artists around the world and most frequently with 2 guys, Juri Rosenfeld and Mark Ellis who, although their styles are entirely different, are both extremely talented as musicians and composers, as well as producers. Along with these two, with whom I have written more than 50 songs....I have been most fortunate to collaborate with so many others that the list is almost endless but two very talented ladies spring to mind: Dawn Diamond and Amy Caldwell, who have not only both composed for my words but have also both are possessed of beautiful voices and have sung many, many times on songs I have written. There is no ONE genre I write for, since a lyricist has to be able to write for ANY category and I do, but one thing I try to be always, is honest in my work because when there is integrity, there is a way to relate to the song and if occasionally I meander into the poetic, it is because I am and always have been, since the age of 13 years, a poet...but that doesn't mean everything I write is flowery or full of metaphors...as I say, I strive always to be real and of course, most importantly, to be as unique as possible.

Story behind the song
The music came first this time...no idea where the lyric came from...but I guess there are times when a man never thinks he will get the girl....and when he does, he is so astonished that he expects her to leave him just as easily...
Lyrics
I Understand v1 Met her at a Sunday outing Must admit she stirred my soul Never thought she'd give me half a chance, you know Asked her for a date on Monday Hoping she'd like rock and roll Was surprised how quickly she said she would go ch Thought she'd be too busy Gotta a lot to keep her busy If she woulda said no thanks right then I'd understand un...derstand v2 Took her out on Thursday evening Must admit she stole my heart Couldn't help believing I was outta my mind Introduced her to my friends and Caught their looks right from the start Not surprised they thought that I was not her kind ch2 She ought to be too busy Gotta lot to keep her busy If she woulda walked away right then I'd understand un-derstand bridge what a week....that proved to be all too soon, she appeared to grow apart from me but I understand solo v3 Lost her by next Monday morning Must admit my heart was broke Hadn't seen it coming at the end you see Asked her once to reconsider Nodded at the words she spoke Even though I knew I'd love her endlessly ch3 Guess she's really busy Gotta lot to keep her busy No time to spare for me right now I understand un-derstand outro what a week....that had proved itself to be all too soon I loved and lost a girl... too good for me, but I understand what a love....that had proved itself to be I should not.... have expected more... you see, and that's why I --- I yes I understand oh yes I understand.
