The Best I Could Do at the Time (Deluxe)

Indie-folk, singer-songwriter love song.  

An acoustic indie-folk love song that captures that all encompassing love between two people - where nothing else in the world matters other than you being with them, and them being with you ... a love that you wish will endure.

ONE MORE STEP

I’ve been waging a war in the darkness 
Charging like a cavalier
And waving a flag with a plan of attack 
To make it out, make it out of here

One more step, one more step
One more step to make it out of here 
One more step, one more step
To leave, leave this town

I never see the sun, ‘cause my head is buried in the clouds 
Could I scale these walls to find that I’m the only, the only one? 
The only one?

With the weight of the world on my shoulders
God, I hope the greener grass is near
‘Cause I’ve burned every bridge, saying “right, this is it!” 
Time to make it out, make it out of here

One more step, one more step
One more step to make it out of here 
One more step, one more step
To leave, leave this town

I never see the sun, ‘cause my head is buried in the clouds 
Could I scale these walls to find that I’m the only, the only one?
The only one?
Could I scale these walls to find that I’m the only, the only one?

Take me somewhere with a foreign tongue 
And maybe then I’ll know my life’s begun, oh

One more step, one more step
One more step to make it out of here 
One more step, one more step
To leave, to leave this town

I never see the sun, ‘cause my head is buried in the clouds
Could I scale these walls to find that I’m the only, the only one? 
I never see the sun, but I dream of breaking through the clouds 
Could I scale these walls to find that I’m the only, the only one? 
The only one?

SAIL AWAY

I don’t know if I will run aground
When the waves are tall enough to touch the clouds
I don’t know if I can brave the swell
When the world is spinning out of sync, like a drunken carousel

But love is all I need
Come and sail away with me
Hold me closer
Take me higher
Be the air I breathe
‘Cause love is all I need

I don’t know why I am colour blind
Just a broken bulb that flickers black to white
But you’re drawing a rainbow out of me
When I’m fading in and out again, fading in and out again

Love is all I need
So, come and sail away with me
Hold me closer
Take me higher
Be the air I breathe
‘Cause love is all I need

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
When the waves are tall enough to touch the clouds
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
When I’m fading in and out again
Circling the drain and I can’t get out
I can’t get out

Love is all I need
So, come and sail away with me
Hold me closer
Take me higher
Be the air I breathe
‘Cause love is all I need
So, come and sail away with me

Sail Away

verse

when I look into the mirror
all I see is an anxious kid
running through a labyrinth
it’s a nightmare

when I look into the future
all I see is the same old shit
running through my head
running through my head
running through my head 

chorus

going nowhere
going nowhere now
stuck in crisis
in this fractured house
all of my life
I never can get off the ground
going nowhere
going nowhere now

verse 2

feel like I’m floating in the darkness
feel like I’m clinging to a desperate hope
that there’s something for me in the unknown
or is it all gone

in our corner of the universe
is there something more than misery
coming after me
coming after me
coming after me

chorus 

going nowhere
going nowhere now
stuck in crisis
in this fractured house
all of my life
I never can get off the ground
going nowhere
going nowhere now

outro

will it be this way forever
is it all just in my mind
can I get my shit together 
tonight

going nowhere

„einer geht noch“ ist ein Song über flüchtige Begegnungen, ehrliche Gespräche an der Bar – und das kleine Glück, jemanden genau im richtigen Moment zu treffen.
Zwischen einem Glas auf die Liebe und einem auf Hin und Kunz erzählt Tom Berger vom Jetzt, vom Hier und vom Wir – ganz lässig, ganz nah.
Ein Song wie ein letzter Drink, den man nicht bereut.

“einer geht noch” is a song about fleeting encounters, honest late-night conversations – and the quiet magic of meeting someone at just the right time.
Between a toast to love and one to whoever walks in, Tom Berger captures the moment with warmth and ease.
A song like a final drink you’ll never regret.

Einer geht noch

Seh dich einsam da sitzen
Hinten an der Bar
Lauf zu dir rüber
Frag „Alles klar?“

Du lächelst, ein bisschen 
Schaust mich an
Dann fragst du
„Was geht, alter Mann?“

Einer geht noch
Einer auf uns
Ein Glas auf die Liebe
Auf Hin und Kunz
Eins auf das Leben
Das Auf und Ab
Und dass ich dich heute
Hier getroffen hab

Du sagst „Komm setzt dich
Grad her zu mir
Wir teilen uns den Abend
Und bestellen noch’n Bier

Erzähl mir ne Story
Aus deiner Welt
Erzähl mir davon
Was dir so gefällt“

Denn...

Einer geht noch
Einer auf uns
Ein Glas auf die Liebe
Auf Hin und Kunz
Eins auf das Leben
Das Auf und Ab
Und dass ich dich
Hier getroffen hab

Die Nacht ist jung
Und betrunken
Der Abend fragt nicht
Er schenkt einfach nach

Und

Einer geht noch
Einer auf uns
Ein Glas auf die Liebe
Auf Hin und Kunz
Eins auf das Leben
Das Auf und Ab
Schön, dass ich dich
Hier getroffen hab

Komm, lass uns gehen...
