So, this is me at balcony TV, literally a "platform" in shape of a balcony for German musicians above the famous Reeperbahn in Hamburg. Was shot during soccer world cup so I had to sing against drunk fans beneath & the typical Hamburg sea gulls from above. With an accoustic guitar & only one mic to record guitar & voice. I hope you enjoy it anyways!
Lyrics
Hey postman
what do you carry
you wake me up at 8 in the morning
what do you carry?
a bill, two admonitions, a letter from my bank
saying my account is exhausted
many numbers, little words
everything's printed
nothing written by hand
dear life
dear life
take my order sheet
dear life
in my fridge only champagne
in my ears, in my ears always just humble words
meant honestly
in my mouth truth only
in my mind clarity
depth for all my chats
and in my letter box:
ONLY LOVE LETTERS!
only love letters, please
only love letters
only love letters
oh oh
(…)
now I know
what I've gotta do
what goes around
comes around
what I wanna have
I have to give myself
dear life
So I sit myself down
write many pictures, many words, little numbers
just this one number
that I fully write down:
I'm sending four millions of good wishes to your house
In your fridge only champagne
in your ears always just nice tunes and humble words
meant honestly
in your mouth truth only
in your mind clarity
depth for all your chats
and in your letter box:
ONLY LOVE LETTERS!
only love letters, please
only love letters
only love letters
oh oh
(…)
Please don't
please no advertisments anymore
please no "dear madame"
And with your mashine aided writings
you can keep out of my life
I only take love letters!
