This is my first instrumental attempt of my new song. I've tried to connect two small tricky main part melodies. All other chords only serve as a transition to the new key. 

Update! Lyrics are finished and complete in the Song Zaubertraumjagd

Oli Boli - Licht

unfinished complex song (instrumental demo Guitar + Piano)

Video: https://youtu.be/IPvXan7ipJQ  

I wrote this song in a small house in a community in northern Germany. Through the window I had a view over a lake and at night-time I had to heat the house with a wood-oven. So while I was composing the song I could hear the sparkling of fire and the willows in the wind...

"Wake Up Call" will be one of the next singles of Blue Return. A noisy guitar based hangover morning situation that cries out for coffee or whiskey, but definitely for movement. Wake Up. Change your life. Dance!

Don't you know that I adore you
Don't you know that I'm your biggest fan
When I call you, you hang up
9 times out of 10

Don't you say, you're feeling sorry
Don't you know there is a better plan
Any time you call my name
I don't know who I am

I think it's funny that you do not act your age
I think it's funny that you're hiding in your cave

And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call 

Don't you know that I adore you, 
but I know I'm not the perfect man
What we crave for we give up
9 times out of 10

I think it's funny that we do not act your age
I think it's funny that we're hiding in our cave

And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call 

And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call 

Bullhorn: All day long the night may fall I do not think of you 
Seems I'm only happy for a while
All day long the night may fall I do not think it's true
Seems I'm only happy when you smile

And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you
And you better wake up, it's a wake up call for you

Wake Up Call

Wake Up Call (Demo)

Heart Of Zero

Hi guys all right? I'm re-releasing this sound which is an old sound of mine that the old recording didn't look as good as I would have liked. So I decided to re-record and see how it turned out.. One day I still intend to record this sound with a full band.. But until then, I'll leave you with this version of The Alchemist. Hugs!

The Alchemist

Artwork: Robbie
Written and first recorded in 2016

Rise from the dead, come on sleepyhead,
There's a new world to be seen.
We'll go explore, and open the door to the dream.
Old memories fade, new ones are made
On the trail dividing the hills.
We'll find the way, follow the day past the stream.

Curtains of light, green, gold and white
All along the evening sky,
Silently move, shifting along with our eyes.
Ask a for a sign, moments sublime
That will lead us through the trees.
On to the shore, there must be more than we see.

Night tears, the darkest fears and rain dissolve at dawn,
Then the light lifts our sail, sets the course, tells the tale,
Helps us glide through the gale.

Back to the dead, resting your head,
There's a new life that we've seen.
Opened the door, met at the shore of the dream.
Now that we fade, we're not afraid
Of the trail dividing the hills.
We passed this way, followed the day down the stream.

Night tears, the darkest fears,
And rain dissolve at dawn.
Then the light lifts our sail,
Sets the course, tells the tale,
Lifts our hearts when we fail,
Helps us love on the trail.

The Trail (Remix)

Pains of the day take more time to fade away,
Fear for a worried tomorrow.
Feel no relief in the circling of a leaf,
Thick cloud and fog hide the meadow.
What can be done that will turn it all around?   
How can the daylight be found?
Is it a choice that the mind repeats this voice, 
Pulling it under the ground?

Look it square in the eye, see the real, see the lie,
With a friend who’ll attend to your cry, 
You can fill in the hole with the music of the soul,
And the calm at your core that makes you whole.

They’re far away and the tension fills your day
Waiting to hear things are OK.
Stare at the phone, feeling helpless and alone,
Seeing disaster fully grown.
Step back and see that it’s all a fantasy,    
Tricks of the mind most of the time,
You can be sure that the truth will be the cure,
Guiding you back to secure.

Look it square in the eye, see the real, see the lie,
With a friend who’ll attend to your cry, 
You can fill in the hole with the music of the soul,
And the calm at your core that makes you whole.

Look it square in the eye, see the real, see the lie,
With a friend who’ll attend to your cry, 
You can fill in the hole with the music of the soul,
And the calm at your core that makes you whole.

December Fields 

[Verse 1]
Your hands are cold
There's frost upon the ground
You feel so old
And there's no one else around
These winter skies
Lit by the paleness of the sun
The trees so bare
The winter has begun

[Pre Chorus]
You've nothing left to say
Nothing left to do
You're barren like these fields
This is the end of you

[Chorus]
You're done, you're done
Like these December fields
So wrong, so wrong
And you know how it feels
So long, so long
You've waited here so long
For these December fields

[Verse 2]
You think of days
When life was full and bright
But seasons change
And the day becomes the night
The years pass by
Your friends are scattered in the breeze
Now you are here
You're just a ghost among these trees

[pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Outro]
A distant light (a distant light)
That flickers in the haze
The echo of (the echo of)
A thousand yesterdays

The fields are cold

December Fields (Cover)

go ask a farmer
if you wanna know if seasons are changing
don't need a science book
to tell you things are going really strange
go ask a politician
if you wanna hear the same old lying

come on!
we can see it with our own damn eyes
come on!
what's all this smoke if there's no fire

there's no more hiding
the future will sentence their crimes

c
but look on the bright side
you get a water view
a river running down your street

no farm for tending
no fence for mending
what's everybody gonna eat
god only knows

2 
go ask the children
if they think everything will be alright
what will we tell them
that we did our best or just let it slide/ride

some people are saying
it's too late and we're outta time

come on!
are we gonna lay down and die
come on!
it's not over till we give up the fight

struggle's a journey
worth doing cos doing it's right
