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.

Lyrics
Whisper out of Time by Dawn Sinclair V1 Even when you're here extinguishing my fear There's something to suspend reality Each mesmerising gaze steals my minutes, hours, days But am I certain Fate intended you for me? When your shadow fades and nighttime presence shades I’m clutching at the memory of your kiss My fingertips sweep the air but you are nowhere there And I am left with nothing but my wish chorus When I think I am holding you, well maybe it is true I'm just clinging to the promise in your smile Am I walking close behind, yet a whisper out of time Can you hear my fears inside each breath I sigh V2 Well, if your eyes should stray while you are far away I wouldn’t be surprised by that at all My confidence grows less outside your tenderness And I feel certain then that you’ll forget to call Seems unwritten law, that I am less secure Your trust in me feels like a fatal blow You never once feel afraid, your love will be mislaid So sure you are that I’ve nowhere to go chorus When I think I am holding you, well maybe it is true I'm just clinging to the promise in your smile Am I walking close behind, yet a whisper out of time Can you hear my fears inside each breath I sigh V3 Crossing this divide, like walking side by side Might prove to be too difficult for me There’s always, in my heart, a fear while we’re apart That you will see the nature of our inequality Do thoughts of me invade your icy masquerade? I’m clutching on to possibility If there is one chance we may, walk hand in hand one day I’m gonna be right here when you need me chorus when I think I am holding you, well maybe it is true I'm just clinging to the promise in your smile Am I walking close behind, yet a whisper out of time Can you hear my fears inside each breath I sigh

Ms Dawn, came by to read the lyrics to this great song ,, Fatal Blow ,,, Icy masquerade ... very interesting perspective ...never looked at love that way , from years of being together( and apart ) it never occured to me that confidence in a relationship could be a " fatal blow " , that calm confidence could be an " Icy masqueade " cheers David L
Really like this ballad! So relaxed and relaxing! Great job on both lyric and music. And Amy´s vocal performance is outstanding. I have always admired her way of variating her voice dynamically. And the harmonies are simply angel-like!

I'll just rate these two...lol, Thanks for all your compliments, you can repeat yourself as often as you'd like! LOL! I'm glad I've managed to find a suitable musical home for your words, I loved singing this one very much and I'm just so glad you like it! I don't have a car to drive around and listen, but it's been playing in my mind all day! Yay! That was fun! LOL... xo Amy

Huggles Poss, is there nothing Amy cannot sing and sing well? A simple song musically that allows the listener to absorb the wonderful lyrics. Loved the chorus both lyrically and musically with its wonderful title tag. Two very talented ladies combining for one very good collab. Love it, voted accordingly. mmuah to both of you.
