lyrics

Trunpike

He never seemed to be around
But he was always there all the time
When he raised his eyes
He looked in half puzzled way but all quiet and kind

He would often leave as if
He had no idea of where he was going
And no intention of ever coming back
One hand in a pocket and a bundle on his back

You never knew his state of mind
His mask could show smiles all the time
You could drink with him all night
And when the dawn was back you would feel bright

He would often walk in as if
He had no idea of where he was coming from
He was never early nor was he too late
One hand in a pocket and the other at the gate

He would often leave as if
He had no idea of where he was going
And no intention of ever coming back
One hand in a pocket and a bundle on his back

He would often walk in as if
He had no idea of where he was coming from
He was never early nor was he too late
One hand in a pocket and the other at the gate

Meet him at the turnpike maybe for a little hike, Meet him at the turnpike
Meet him there
Meet him at the turnpike hey, you seem to be alike, Meet him at the turnpike
You are alike
Meet him at the turnpike maybe for a little hike, Meet him at the turnpike
Meet him there
Meet him at the turnpike hey, you seem to be alike, Meet him at the turnpike
Ohh,ouohh

Without you he is lost inside
Hey, you are much alike
You should go there, without breaking stride
Without breaking stride

Meet him at the turnpike maybe for a little hike, Meet him at the turnpike
Meet him there
Meet him at the turnpike hey, you seem to be alike, Meet him at the turnpike
You are alike
Meet him at the turnpike maybe for a little hike, Meet him at the turnpike
Meet him there
Meet him at the turnpike hey, you seem to be alike, Meet him at the turnpike
Ohh,ohh,ohh

Without you he is lost inside
Hey, you are much alike
You should go there, without breaking stride
Without breaking stride

about

ad hoc Winterthur, Switzerland

Striking are the unusual, but melodious vocal lines, sometimes crossing the border to prog rock, and sometimes to Country.

Die Stimmen schaffen zusammen mit Gitarre, Violine oder Mandoline eine dichte und gleichzeitig fragile Atmosphäre. „ad hoc“ singen von Geheimnissen der Liebe, von Leuten, die nie ganz fassbar sind und von der Stärke der Naivität, die auch Enttäuschungen nicht scheut. ... more
