I hope you stay here for tonight
Though I know it’s not easy to find
Your own peace of mind
Cause it always takes two to make peace
And to make the circle complete

Goodbye loneliness, hey there togetherness
I’ve got tons to catch up on
Farewell unhappiness, wait for you, easiness
Could you please come along?
You’re always about
To burst through every cloud
And I still long for you
Like the morning dew
Replace, rewind, retrack, rename
I focus on this perfect game
Rewind, retrack, rename, restore
Could you please stay forevermore?
I won’t promise you the world
But I promise you mine
And make the fur fly
In the blink of an eye
I’ve grown too old
To die young now
No strings attached
So take a bow
So take me as I am
I take you as you are
Rewind, retrack, rename, restore

The Wrinkle In Time
03:12
|
|||
|
Every time you’re happy something brings you down
When it’s too late to turn around
Or someone breaks your heart
And every time you’re down you’ll find that exit door
At the end of the corridor
To make a brand new start
There’s always day, there’s always night
There’s always black, there’s always white
There’s always dark, there’s always light
And there’s nothing else to know
What is not supposed to happen, happens anyway
And I suppose
That’s just the way life goes
As long as there’s tomorrow, there’ll be a better day
Good and bad will come
And surely all at once
There’s always cramped, there’s always wide
There’s always drab, there’s always bright
There’s always left, there’s always right
Wherever we may go
Time runs by and
Time comes and ends
When time becomes time

You And I
03:13
|
|||
|
Make me stay don’t let me go
My favourite thing is being yours
But I’m just like a distant town
So far away and so alone
Where are you?
Please just give me a sign
Before we break in two
I’ll make you mine
Here I am
But where am I
When you and I collide?
Here I am
But where am I?
Select connect to go online
So much web, so little time
I must confess I’m so annoyed
Unimpressed and unemployed

Alderaan
03:05
|
|||
|
You think that you can go from here to there
While I stay here and can’t afford the fare
I don’t regret a single thing I’ve done
But I do regret every song I’ve sung
Don’t leave me
Please ease me
Believe me
Our hearts will always march to the same beat
Maybe I will put you back to sleep
Close my eyes and hope that we will meet
It’s heavenly and written in the stars
They say that this was once called Alderaan
Four years, they say
One more to stay
With me
Fall asleep and we’ll
Sleep through this year
And we’ll go anywhere

Green Mile
03:35
|
|||
|
We’re too young for regrets
What’s now will soon be past
I make my way to the sea
If you’re making your way with me
And all the leaves they turn to gold
And the season’s getting cold
And we’re just getting old
Oh I’m just getting old
I’m not giving up
I’m just starting over
I won’t fuck it up
I’m just getting older
It’s not a bad cough
It’s a green mile
And it will lead us
Into the wild
And see how we fall back and spring ahead

On Her Radar
03:03
|
|||
|
She’s a saint and I’m a sinner
She’s so sweet and I am bitter
She’s an expert, I’m a beginner
She’s an artist, I’m just a singer
But I am on her radar
And I wanna stay there
Feels just like she’s by my side
The fancy food I’ve made her
To share it with you later
Was made to keep me satisfied
There’s more me in me than there should be
There’s more me in you than I can get through
She makes cash and I reduce it
She’s so clever and I’m clueless
She makes love, I make excuses
She’s so smart and I am foolish
Let’s build bridges so that we
Can make it to the island
And leave this soul asylum
The birds, the trees, the wind, the sea
And stars as clear as diamonds
But it’s me who breaks the silence

|
When I awoke I was lost
But then I spoke to your god
And travelled through five dimensions
To bring you to your senses
I’ll go anywhere I have to
And anytime I need to
Do anything you want to
My love
But I got lost

Blankets Of Snow
03:10
|
|||
|
Please slow down
Take a break, turn off your phone
Let it go
Baskets of leaves, blankets of snow
Come to rest
Catch a breath and just relax
Steal a car
Take a ride and we’ll go far
And the traffic lights
And the building sites
And the subway rides
And the bits and bytes
Let it go
Be slow
Take your time
Settle down
Have a drink and hang around
No more thrills
Bottles of pills beyond the hills
Take a pause
No drum beat and no applause
Grab a seat
In this world of make-believe

Home
04:10
|
|||
|
I try to rely on a lie that’s true
I just want to hide right beside you
I can feel you right beneath my feet
And I hear you begging darling please
Take good care
I’m on my one way road
That leads me to a place called home

Breathe In / Breathe Out
04:08
|
|||
|
I should have a little less or a little more
Before it all becomes the norm
And test the rest before the next best lets
Us see what he just saw
What are you looking for?
Please don’t reach your goals
Cause then your journey ends
And life stops making sense
Breathe in, breathe out
But don’t breathe a word about
The magic trick of life
Get in, get out
From within and from without
Beyond sphere and space and time
I should try to cry my eyes out dry
Before you become the cause
And breathe in air when there’s still air to share
Before the breathing pause
You know a lot about you
But I know more about you
Yes, I know all about you

If every K is for the kisses
And every A is for affection
Then every T is for the time and
I could be your island
When I first saw you I stu-u-ttered
When I first called you I forgot what
I just wanted to tell
Blue as the sky and green as hell
And oh I wrote it down a hundred times
And every time I did it felt so right
But now that I’ve got you
And now that you’ve got me
No orchestra sets in
Just you and me
If there was a word that I could say
Not absurd and not insane
If there’s a thing that I can do
All I’m searching for is you
But damn it! now I’m stuck
On a word I can’t look up
Cause nothing could explain...
Oh how I wrote these lines in vain

From A To Beginning
03:19
|
|||
|
Have you ever seen what I just saw?
Have you ever been where I was before?
Did you set me right when I was wrong?
Did you ever sing what I have sung?
Doo-oo-oooo-o-o-ooo
Goes the backing vocal
Doo-oo-oooo-o-o-ooo
That’s how it sounds in total
Doo-oo-oooo-o-o...
Always almost alright
With no end in sight
When less is even more
Begin, began, begun
Do what can’t be done
Today’s the day before
We come and go
We learn and grow
We all will die
Under the same blue sky

GREGOR McEWAN Leer, Germany
"These are obscenely expertly performed songs, an essence. Maybe Gregor McEwan has never before presented his art with this kind of focus. These tunes are a sensation! All this adrenaline, this joy, this melancholy inundating the listener. This is what this kind of music should be about - and nothing else. Every time I listen to it I am exhausted. Thank you for that!" (Linus Volkmann) ... more
