GREAT SONGS ARE MY LIFE! All my life has been measured by great songs, those that I've written and those of so many fine writers whose songcraft has both thrilled and influenced me. I like writing & producing songs in a wide variety of genres, because a great song, well performed, is always exciting no matter what the musical style, and because it keeps me fresh and interested. So I write for a variety of R & B, Pop, Jazz and Modern Rock artists. I've had the pleasure of working with some of the finest artists and producers around, and in addition to writing for established artists, I also love tailoring songs for the new breed of up-and-coming talent, who bring a fresh approach and style into the always-hungry collective musical consciousness. Whenever I write or produce for a new young artist, we always learn and grow so much from each other, and often we create some real magic! Some of those fresh artists and magic are represented here in my musical sampling. Enjoy listening, and if you like what you hear, feel free to contact me.

Story behind the song
A lady tells her man that he's her hero, even though he's not a warrior, savior, 9/11 firefighter, etc., just because he stays the course with her and always cares for her
Lyrics
You Are My Hero The world is such a violent place Igniting at a frightening pace Where is that gentle state of grace we all hoped we’d find And when the waves of fear collide The valiant rise to stem the tide And heroes are born overnight like new stars being formed in the sky I never asked for valor from my man “Cause when I’m in his arms I know we’ll stand and stand CHORUS: And if I could choose a hero for this haunted life Not a warrior or a savior or vaunted knight But the one who looks deep in my eyes Listens without compromise Honors every dream and care I say... You are my hero A woman wants a constant man A family does the best it can The shattered dreams lie o’er the land like a hurricane The anger flairs and tears are cried The meaning falls and purpose slides And still you come back every time as the sand slips away through your hands The hardest battle’s still waged every day The courage it takes to turn around and stay and stay CHORUS: And if I could find a hero in this holy home Not a prince in shining armor or a man of stone But the one who lays it down each day Stays the course to make our way Keeps the hearth fire burnin’ warm and bright You are my hero The real hero’s the one who comes home every night And wraps me in his warm embrace and treats me right And if I could name a hero in this loveless world It would be the man who keeps on lovin’ up his girl ‘Cause you make it real all through the night Let me know our passions right Give me every reason to endure... You are my hero You are my hero You are my hero Copyright © 2002 by Rhythm Earthsong, BMI. All rights reserved
