Postcards And Polaroids / Try To Write A Song Like This

by GREGOR McEWAN

/
1.
This breakup came too sudden and it hurts too bad To see you or to hear your voice And all I really want and all I need now Are your postcards and your polaroids Damn! it hurts like hell but it’s oh so well I’m feeling like a sad lil’ clown Gonna put my life into that suitcase Cause the circus is back in town And it’s true Yes it’s true I can’t and won’t stop loving you You said you’ve changed but how to stay the same Well you were seventeen This was way too long so I belong To you and you bel ong to me Now listen: I don’t mind this test of time As long as you don’t go Be my natural force, my source and course Cause the right time is always now

There are voices in my head Of all those Heavy Metal Bands How hard it is to have a heart I’m making fun of everyone Make fun of me just when I’m gone And I will make an early start And don’t take it too serious You are so mysterious Like the U.S. series And I don’t belong here I just belong near Where things are so clear Call ahead when you’re too late Smile at anyone you hate And think of what you want to say Just say what you really mean Don’t sit too close to the screen And call your girlfriend every day And all the people at the bar Say I can barely play guitar How hard it is to have a heart I’m making fun of everyone Make fun of me just when I’m gone And I will make an early start So get your own things straight Break a crumb and bake a cake And try to find the things you miss Talk to her and not to me Build a house and plant a tree And try to write a song like this

about

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
