about

Dear future, will you remember the past? Through this song the listener is invited to think beyond the recent happenings in the world. With an optimistic breeze the song drives you through any strange timeframe that might come in the future. This song has been written and recorded during corona quarantine at different homes in Switzerland and Germany. We have sent each other the file around without meeting in person once. It's all DIY - I don't want to record it professionally, I'm happy to share it as it is, it captured the moment.

lyrics

Dear future song
Are you my sweet remedy
Against loneliness and fear

Dear future child
Will you be there for me
We’ve been told to live in isolation

Despite physical distance
Our thoughts are still the same
And If you turn them into letters
Your poem will be read

Dear future
I know you won’t be the same
Say bye-bye and reinvent yourself

Dear future friend
May patience be our lane
Now we know that greediness has messed around

Despite physical distance
Our thoughts are still the same
And If you turn them into letters
Your poem will be read

You keep me awake
Why you keep me awake

Dear future
Will you remember the past
I guess fear and hope have rarely been that close

Time has come to decide
Indifference or desire
will they keep ruling our heads
Or is there any hidden place
Where we could change our thoughts
