Lyrics

I've been searching for meaning in the eye of a storm,
Somewhere to shelter that's cosy and warm.
Where candlelight flickers, shadows dance on the walls,
In comfort I'll wish for the end of the war

There's no reason to feel the way that I do,
While I'm working away, I think of home and of you.
My memory slips through the hours of the night,
I wish you were here still holding me tight.

As the wind that is blowing and rattles my door, 
I could have done better, I could have done more. 
When someone beside me held out a hand,
And whispered the words that helped me to stand. 

I noticed a change in my body and mind,
In the quiet of a moment that's so hard to find.
When people like us are so easy to please,
Why do we struggle for one second of peace?

Let loose the shackles and unburden my chains,
Everything changes but still stays the same.
It's driving me crazy, It's breaking my heart,
They can't stop the bullets that tare lives apart.

I've  been searching for meaning in the eye of a storm,
Somewhere to shelter that's cosy and warm.
Where candlelight flickers, shadows dance on the walls,
In comfort I'll wish for the end of the war. 

As the wind that is blowing and rattles my door, 
I could have done better, I could have done more. 
When someone beside me held out a hand,
And whispered the words that helped me to stand. 

I noticed a change in my body and mind,
In the quiet of a moment that's so hard to find.
When people like us are so easy to please,
Why do we struggle for one second of peace?

I've  been searching for meaning in the eye of a storm,
Somewhere to shelter that's cosy and warm.
Where candlelight flickers, shadows dance on the walls,
In comfort I'll wish for the end of the war. 

There's no reason to feel the way that I do,
While I'm working away, I think of home and of you.
My memory slips through the hours of the night,
I wish  you were here still holding me tight.

The Eye Of The Storm

Welcome to our music realm, where creativity thrives and melodies are plentiful. I'm Phil Dutton, a Music Producer, Composer, Musician, and Singer from the UK, and together with my long time song writing partner, Les Corlett, I'm thrilled to have you here.

Our latest album, 'The Puppeteers', is now available on Soundcloud, showcasing our passion and dedication to da music! Working alongside Les, we've crafted tracks we're truly proud of.

From writing to production, we're constantly evolving. Les' lyrics are sharper than ever, and together, we make a formidable songwriting duo. Our music is created at home using Cakewalk on a PC, with me playing all instruments except on a few tracks where Juan Smith lends his talents.

Music is our ultimate joy, and we hope you enjoy listening to our tunes. Subscribe to our YouTube channel for more. Thanks for joining us on this musical journey!
