Description: About the Song – “Paths” A soulful jazz reflection on life’s journey. This song is a tribute to the roads we walk, the people we meet, and the lessons we learn along the way.

Vocal excellents!!! great Song Captivating

so this is the awakening, a twisted reflection, 
more shattered than yesterday.
gotta deal with the pain, the loss of love — the real one,
that leaves a bitter taste — fear is crowned the queen in here.
i broke my hoop, and my brain is plotting regicide.

Chorus:
what is this flame that keeps on dancing,
that stands upright through the night?
if she’s the lover of my pyre,
then let her set it all alight.

i’ve given too much skin, don’t call me to tan my hide.
keep your glasses of water, your extra drops and your wax statues.
i ain’t no poet and i don’t care — i see only cowards, i’m their center,
 i’m a part of it, i’m their chanter, and i never run out of targets.

Chorus:
what is this flame that keeps on dancing,
that stands upright through the night?
if she’s the lover of my pyre,
then let her set it all alight.

so here it is, the exit — sorry, it ain’t any prettier.
if that’s the end of the tunnel, i won’t chew the coming words.
i don’t know what this universe wants, but i’m not sure it’s the right math.
it smells of spite inside my silence, kingdom of my twisted thoughts.

Chorus:
what is this flame that keeps on dancing,
that stands upright through the night?
if she’s the lover of my pyre,
then let her set it all alight.

the one i hear ain’t happy, not sure that bastard’s planning peace.
anyway, inside of me, demons are playing in the wound.
there’s a taste of déjà vu, like a black cat after nine lives.
let’s undress the disillusion — there it is, fear looks prettier.

Chorus (final):
what is this flame that keeps on dancing,
that stands upright through the night?
if she’s the lover of my pyre,
then let her set it all alight.

"When I Grow Up" is a heartfelt country ballad produced by Spirit Sound and written by Melinda Klotz Mercer. The song takes listeners on a journey through life’s seasons — from innocent childhood dreams to teenage hopes, into the working years of love, family, and faith, and finally into the peaceful reflections of retirement.

Blending country storytelling with contemporary Christian inspiration, this track reminds us that growing up isn’t just about age — it’s about holding on to hope, leaning on God, and finding joy in every chapter. With simple, honest lyrics and warm melodies, When I Grow Up speaks to anyone who has ever wondered what it truly means to live a life of purpose.

Lyrics,

[Intro]
Ooo, ooo, my child, my sons…

[Verse 1]
When anger grips your spirit, words won’t break free,
I’ll guide you soft to truth, just lean on me.
Time with you, boys, it’s déjà vu,
Trails we chase, our souls laid bare.

[Pre-Chorus]
Your fathers’ love, it holds you tight,
Their courage shines, through day and night…

[Chorus/Drop]
Ooo, my child, my son, you make me whole,
My unyielding flame, you shape my core.
Ooo, my child, my son, born to roam,
Love and strength will lead you home.

[Verse 2]
If hate should blind you, or you stray your way,
The sun will call you back to brighter days.
Don’t let your struggles dim your dreams,
The sky’s your stage, go take your stand.

[Pre-Chorus]
Your fathers’ love, it holds you tight,
Their courage shines, through day and night…

[Chorus/Drop]
Ooo, my child, my son, you make me whole,
My unyielding flame, you shape my core.
Ooo, my child, my son, born to roam,
Love and strength will lead you home.

[Bridge/Break]
Ooo…
My love’s a trail, through time it calls…

[Final Chorus/Drop]
Ooo, my child, my son, you make me whole,
My unyielding flame, you shape my core.
Ooo, my child, my son, you make me whole,
My unyielding flame, you shape my core.
Ooo, my child, my son, go chase the stars,
My love’s with you, no matter how far.

[Outro]
Ooo… my child, my son…

This piano composition takes its cues from Beethoven's Bagatelle "Für Elise".  It seemed a bit of fun to give Beethoven's famous piece a new twist and so we have.  Thank you to my dear friends Oddrun, Arne, and Peter, for this marvelous and joyful experience of working together.  It brings us all a bit closer together.

An Autumn Pastorale

The year’s getting late, now summer’s sleeping
I contemplate how autumn’s creeping in.
Berries shining for the birds
As they harmonise each others’ words In a chorus like the angels heard.

The year’s getting late, for carefree living

Lazy times, with honest give and take.
Simple joys like baby smiles
And climbing hills to see for miles
The evening star switching on…year’s getting late

The year’s getting late, memories clinging
Better times, that sweet hope’s bringing in
The last of this year’s butterflies
Mother nature’s neat surprise

Can’t those days come back please? … year’s getting late.

The Dream

Volker Carl Jacoby - Autor, Poet, Kabarettist, Comedian, Liedermacher, Synchronsprecher, Journalist, Pastor - https://www.literaturland-saar.de/personen/volker-carl-jacoby

Author, poet, cabaret artist, songwriter, voice actor, journalist and even pastor: Volker C. Jacoby is active in many fields.

He spent his childhood and youth in St. Ingbert. Saarland, Germany, where he attended the humanistic and classical language branch of the State Secondary School. After university and various jobs, he began working freelance for „Saarländischer Rundfunk“ Radio, initially as a correspondent for the SR 3 regional news program, in parallel with his readings and literary solo cabaret programs. This was followed by roles as a narrator for radio plays, as a voice actor, and for various commercials.

In 1977, Jacoby teamed up with Schorsch Seitz to form the duo "Jacoby & Schorsch." Together, they primarily composed humorous songs in Standard German and the Rhenish-Franconian-Saarland dialect with a cabaret-like, ironic touch. Their dialect songs, in particular, filled a clearly existing gap in the market, especially since "SR 3 Saarlandwelle" featured them permanently on their programming, thus making them known to a wider audience. Subsequently, "Jacoby and Schorsch" produced three vinyl albums and three singles. During their tours, they also performed open-air gigs with rock bands.

Soon well known beyond the borders of Saarland, the duo received engagements in Berlin, Stuttgart (Südfunk), Cologne (Westdeutscher Rundfunk), Frankfurt, Munich, Basel, and Brussels, among others. During a TV recording at the Renitenztheater in Stuttgart, they also met Mathias Richling and Karl Dall. Jacoby collaborated with the latter several times for RTL on the radio show "Die schlaue Stunde." In 1993, the popularity of "Jacoby & Schorsch" peaked – not least through their appearances with Hanns Dieter Hüsch  (A "Hüsch Evening" with music in memory of his friend and cabaret colleague Hanns Dieter Hüsch was added to the repertoire – later in 2010).

He moved to France 1994. Since then, he has been performed readings, including singing. His dialect contributions have provided him with a rewarding outlet in the "Mundartring Saar" (Saarland dialect circle), including as a reciter of poems by deceased fellow authors, to whom he lends his voice.

Constantly prolific in literary terms, his poems are in the tradition of comic poetry in the style of Wilhelm Busch, Christian Morgenstern, Joachim Ringelnatz, Eugen Roth, Heinz Erhardt, and Robert Gernhardt. Volker C. Jacoby also publishes his poetry and prose on LiteratPro, Facebook, and YouTube. Since 2025, he has been setting his poems to music and is constantly writing new songs. And, of course, he continues to write his cheerful, humorous, and often very quirky poems.
