"Hollow Heart" -- Eugene Vishnevski and Sheila Busteed debut songwriting partnership

"Hollow Heart"
Eugene Vishnevski and Sheila Busteed debut songwriting partnership

I met the talented Belarusian musician Eugene Vishnevski last year while we were both living and working in South Korea. We've since moved on to other things, but our love for music has bonded us together, leading to the development of a wonderful friendship and working relationship as songwriting partners.

I'm proud to announce the first fruit of those labours is now available for you to enjoy. Please check out "Hollow Heart" on SoundCloud and share it with everyone you know who has an appreciation for good music.

Here are the lyrics I wrote for "Hollow Heart":

I dream of always being with the true love
Who holds my heart.
But what remains when great distance is between?
It stays hollow.

I see your whole soul in your eyes.
They always tell me you love me.
But the rain just pours from my eyes.
It's an ocean between us.

[chorus:]
My heart isn't whole with you so far away.
The pain of not seeing you every day
Is slowly killing me.
I worry my life won't get better from here.
I wish it would all go backwards in gear
To how things used to be.

I've long lost count of how long it's been since
I last saw you.
I worry now we may never again be
In the same place.

You saw my whole soul in my eyes.
And you still tell me you love me,
But this makes tears pour from my eyes.
There's an ocean between us.

[repeat chorus]
