about

Today it's heading to the disco - or more precisely to the “Discotheque”, a time when dance music was still played with real instruments. But the fluffy 70s strings and choirs are contrasted with a modern hardness that also corresponds to the rather cool lyrics.

Thanks to our guest musician Lisa Hahnenwald (violin)!
Thanks to Christoph Endres for the wonderful lyrics!

lyrics

It’s been a while, maybe been years
But now is now, and now I’m here
There is no story, there’s no song
I once was old but now I’m young

There is no name for what I am
And you don’t care, so call me Sam
The night is young, the day is far
Alive at last – that’s what we are

Dance, stranger, dance
It’s not too late, you might still get a chance
Run, stranger, run
You can’t come back to where it begun
Dance, stranger, dance
It’s not too late, you might still get a chance
Dance, stranger, dance

We’re getting drunk, that’s just what it is
This is not sex, this is not even a kiss
It’s cruel for me to say that you
Have no idea what I could do

There is no end, it’s just a road
I might break hearts, I’ll leave no note
Young is the night, far is the day
Cause nights like this can never stay

Dance, stranger, dance
It’s not too late, you might still get a chance
Run, stranger, run
You can’t come back to where it begun
Dance, stranger, dance
It’s not too late, you might still get a chance
Dance, stranger, dance

Remember what your brother said
You better leave, or you forget
The things you never will regret
Oh no, you never will regret

Be careful when the floor is wet
You never had a safety net
You know, you’re never going back
Oh no, you’re never going back

It’s been a while, even been years
The way things are I could not lose my fears
I know that I just treat you mean
It’s not my fault, just how it’s been

There is no pain, I just feel cold
And I don’t care, maybe I’m old
My name is Sam, and dawn is far
It’s not a dream, it’s what we are

Dance, stranger, dance
It’s not too late, you might still get a chance
Run, stranger, run
You can’t come back to where it begun
Dance, stranger, dance
It’s not too late, you might still get a chance
Run, stranger, run
You can’t come back to where it begun
dance, stranger, dance
dance, stranger, dance
