about

If music is in the DNA, it's virtually impossible to leave it behind, no matter how much hassle it causes and how beguiling a peaceful life might appear!

lyrics

The Calling.

Just when I think I’ve kicked it, and the way is clear,
When the contract has been broken and freedom’s near,
When the bright lights fall behind and the dark fields gather round,
When peace fills my head, and it’s over,

The music rushes in that turns me upside down,
Fingers sleep-walk to catch the thread
And the rush of intuition brings the knowledge home,
You’ll never leave me, nor I can’t leave you,
Because there’s more than music to this.

It’s the magic of the moment, it’s the thrill of the thrust,
It’s the hurtle of the heartbeat as time turns to dust,
It’s the mingling of the madness, the catching of the breath,
It’s the passion linking every moment between life and death

When the music rushes in ………

You take me from my family, you put me on the road,
You fill my life with obstacles and say that’s what you chose,
I walk the burning coals for you, you lead me on thin ice,
I get tickets into everywhere, but seldom get my price,

When the music rushes in ………..
