LAY MY HOPES ACROSS THE SEA
(Lyrics by Philipp Janoske/Hubi Hofmann)
there are so many things to see - so many places waitin' for me
while I sit here by the ocean thinkin' 'bout a remedy
for my uncurable disease - somebody help me please
I guess I have to pack my bags for an unknown odyssey
put my heart on a ship
send my soul on a trip
lay my hopes across the sea
and find a place that is safe for me
while I face dark clouds rainin' down hard on me
countless razor-sharp teeth waitin' under the surface to bite my feet
I keep on sailing along the sirens' haunting melody
will I brave these heavy waters or drown in misery?
put my heart on a ship
send my soul on a trip
lay my hopes across the sea
and find a place that is safe for me
I'm a thousand miles from home but within a mile from shore
and neither man nor animal can hold me back no more
but I know it's always calm in the eye of a storm
put my heart on a ship
send my soul on a trip
lay my hopes across the sea
and find a place that is safe for me
like the old explorers kneeling down relieved to finally touch new ground
on new shores I will set my feet and find my peace - eventually
put my heart on a ship
send my soul on a trip
lay my hopes across the sea
and find a place that is safe for me
Psychedelic/blues rock from this five member band from Germany. Excellent female vocals, backed up by a more than capable band. Nice guitar solos, solid rhythm section, and that organ, mixed together gives this record a hard rock organic feel. lloydd
By the way these guys play heavy blues you’d swear that they were raised on moonshine somewhere in the deep south of good ol’ US of A. That’s until you here them sing in their native tongue. Now there’s that much good music out there that I feel I don’t need to buy albums I can’t understand. But I made an exception for MOON. Why? Because they’re beyond good. Think a dirtier, louder ‘The Stone Foxes’ that just seem a little bit more like real life. Harry Harrison
