about

IN AN INSTANT is a song from late 2019, written together with Moylan, a great singer & songwriter from Ireland. Based on a piano chord idea, we started our collaboration by playing around with some amazing improvised vocal melodies from Moylan. From that, the vocal melody and chords of the chorus was just the next obvious consequence.

IN AN INSTANT is about how quickly some changes can happen, and that one never seem to be prepared, unless they're in the situation right away. Although written before the Corona madness, IN AN INSTANT seemed to cast its foreshadows to the massive changes we ran into in early 2020. No one would have believed how things could change completely in an instant...

lyrics

in an instant
in an instant

well I guess that’s it
now that you’ve seen me
what did you expect my love 
you only saw what you wanted to see

well I’m done with it
there’s nothing left to say
tell it how you like my love
I never let you astray

I guess that’s it
I’m done with it
done with it 

time
time goes by
seasons they pass
they fade

at the end
end of the night
where the dark meets the light
you’re changed
suddenly 
I’m off

in an instant
in an instant

well that’s it then
let’s call it a day
I don’t have to hear what you have to say
you’ll be falling deeper every day
when you’re low and alone
you’ll be wishing for me to stay
me to stay

time
time’s like (the) tides
pulling you out
of range

and (then)
when you’re washed ashore
you can’t find it no more
it has changed
suddenly 
I’m free

I
in the blink of an eye
slip out of your hands
your life

there‘s
no „by your side"
I’be left you behind
but I don’t mind
suddenly 
I’m gone

suddenly 
I’m gone

suddenly 
I’m back

in an instant
in an instant
