"Morning Comes"

Easter 02:09
I'm burning a thousand letters a thousand letters so I won't know Cause all of those memories haunt me they truly haunt me won't let me go But I'm not what I have been but what I will be And I'm not what I have seen but what I will see So I am collecting papers and documentaries of days to come My drawer's full of picture postcards sent from the future with kind regards I have a bird called Easter she makes me sing Her tunes I do believe in and the hope she brings So Easter she's been to places to distant places at least she says Her cage is translucent silver but you can't see that at least not yet I could not have come to choose her For she chose me She seemed like a good companion a good companion so I agreed

Let's take a ride before the night is through We pack our backs there's nothing else to do We saw ourselves in the corner of our eyes A fleeting glimpse made to pass us by But now we're crossing over Jordan Would you believe The promised land's a juke box And it plays for free We're safe to take our minds off The treacherous mirage We're making ground at last We're going in For twenty years you wore your puzzled frown Like you've lost your keys and they can't be found Or like you find yourself on some foreign star You look around but you don't know where you are Oh God of Grace in whom we're all received How could we miss the forest among the trees How could we go and build our house on sand We heard the word but we did not understand

Storyline 03:03
If you go shouldn't you say so Is there anybody left to fool If you know shouldn't we somehow Did you break the Golden Rule Can I have a word ore we giving in Do we still believe in some sort of plan Are we holding on or letting go Shouldn't we somehow know The days have come like cargo trains Carrying our doily load of good news to proclaim But now the stories hove run dry It's seems we've lost our way Got a heart got on intention Is there anything else I need Got a home heavenly mansion Still the years hove come like thieves Everyone is loaded like o gun Every. one is longing to belong Are we nearly there or going astray Is there anywhere we can stay You've been waiting in line for your time to come Now your time has come and it looks like you might come undone Did you leave the storyline or were you left behind Anyway you'd better be making up your mind

When the morning comes I won't knew where-I belong With my head in the clouds Not so sure what I am all about I am no family man I gave up on too many dreams The oblivion's obscene It's to or fro but I'm in between I will be settling in Nowhere Town Eventualities keep coming around I make my home in Halfway There But my hope is on Everywhere I'm burning the daze I hope I won't be too late Too late for what will ever be The train is gone But the fare's long been payed When the morning comes I hope I found my place It's an unpleasant life To sit and dwell on supposed mistakes

We often go to Feed our restless souls We're ever hungry why we do not know Then we turn around and find we've gone astray In our own charade Ain't it funny how you don't even disagree We're playing blind man's bluff but we're nowhere near you see We're looking for the right thing at the wrong end It's time to make some sense In the back of my head I have a vague memento of where I need to go I lay my burden down Cause I have reason to believe If I turn this ship around I'm gonna find some sweet relief From the cold and the dark and the lonely days at sea To that mercyful shore where you will wait for me On days like these I look at you I'm searching for o sign Am I here with you or did I fall behind We go from place to place to have our fill But we're hungry still Take me back lead me home I am the wayward son I am yours you are mine at least that's what I believe On days like these
6.
You and me we made our way through thick and thin · We battled with the stars wondering who we are With bruised and battered hearts we lie down with the dogs But we know our time will come · And no it won't be long · Because we know We are wiser than philosophy Sound so much better than your symphony We are stronger than a hundred men Know better stories than ol' Brautigan We'll come greater than Charles The Great We'll be big on the big parade We've been beaten down and left beside the tracks But we're shaking off the mud We'll be coming out on top And we were told that every dark will have it's day And we will surely wait Until fortune comes our way in the end Our friends set out to kill the giants of the east They're masters of their game How glorious their name We stand behind applauding all their mighty schemes We have no such tale to tell But still we will prevail in the end

Rain 03:32
I speak a language that nobody heard I've written a book but I forgot every word You say my name like you know me well Like my secrets are easy to tell Me and my mule we have come a long way Could use some sleep but we have nowhere to stay Sometimes it seems like our quest is in vain Like we're in for some pointless game But then you rain rain rain, you fall on me golden With your love and grace I'm finally sober When you hold me now it feels like forever And you speak like the silent wind I love your name God, how I love your name I feed my little fires on everlasting flame When all is said and everything is done You'll still be the only one
8.
Wasn't n today you were going to leave me and break free But you stayed for some obvious lack of bravery We we're one of a kind we believe that choice is the ultimate thief You claim to be right but you know you're deceivedIt doesn't mean a thing if we spin one more round your leaving My hand once good for holding you down is weakening Hey you'll soon be on top of your game And though now you're numb with the pain All that is cut will be growing again I knew that this day would arrive I knew you were strong to survive Is this really how it's going to end Is all we hod written in sand It's driving me out of my mind Cause if you leave Who am I going to be
9.
Wheather Man 02:57
Eyes wide shut as if we didn't now the score Stumbling blind os if we hadn't been here before We have our arms have our legs why don't we use them now the tide is turning Open doors open hearts why don't we make our move and walk on water now Wrong side up this is not how it's meant to be Fast way out they're never ever going to believe Our time has finally come The curtain's cut in two We know it can be done A new day's coming through Change our name the only thing that's left to do Against the groin of everything we're used to
10.
Her moods were changing faster Than a bullet learns to fly We were heading for disaster everyday Slipping by and by Up the stairs on o Saturday listening to the radio play I wait The weather man's a liar but who am I to say I made my mind up I held my head up I would Iearn to see the world she sees I remember well the morning of the day You did not wake from sleep The wound of which you were dying Had never seazed to bleed The house is still the women weep Children trying to believe you're gone The drama's not the dying but the life you did not get to lead We make our choices for what the prize is Ain't it all a mighty tragedy Tell your story for all to hear Make all those moments reappear Give witness to the burning that consumed the family It's time to hear you speak
11.
The sun is tired with its moon The stage is bored with its actors playing I stopped loving you too soon We could have made this travesty worth staying But I recall we were never quite as good as we thought we'd be We always knew we should make the best of the time we have But we did not know how I rub the sand out of my eyes Can't seem to see straight how things really are A case of laziness and lies I'm a busload of travellers going nowhere This car will need someone to drive This gun will need someone to pull the trigger I should have held you really tight Instead I made my big mistake even bigger
12.
Zion Time 02:54

When I was a little child I had a fever The world wore its funny veil I could not believe her The fever's gone, the veil it stayed with me until this very day What would you do where would you hide to see you through I turn every stone and mark all treason I chill to the bone but rhyme their reason I climb my mountain and dream of the fountain years It took us a year or two to finally get started I always believed in you I knew where your heart is You're near you're far you keep me warm but then you are the distant star But there you are holding me when I fall apart When I Turn every stone and mark all treason I chill to the bone but rhyme their reason I climb my mountain and dream of the fountain years The four chambers of the heart remain to be opened The doors give a little now but the chains are unbroken When I'm cold and blind and shake with rage You soothe my troubled mind and say We'll turn every stone and mark all treason We'll burn every bridge and rhyme all reason We'll climb our mountain and dream of the fountain years We'll dream of the fountain years

about

Someday Jacob: Music written, played and sung by a man called Joern Schlueter from Bremen, North Germany. The forthcoming „Morning Comes“ (out October 2011 through Songs&Whispers/Cargo) is his full-length debut. There are thirteen songs on that album, all of them can be called Singer-Songwriter or Indie-Folk or Folkpop. Schlueter has been writing songs for a number of years, sometimes for himself, sometimes for others. With Someday Jacob Schlueter is as close as it gets to the music he loves. Some of these tunes echo Paul Simon, others echo the craftsmanship of artists like Neil Finn and Ron Sexsmith.
During these last two years, friendships were built. Someday Jacob became a band, and as part of the Songwriter's network Songs&Whispers (also a record label), Schlueter started touring with many great bands from the UK like Viarosa, The Epstein, Daisy Chapman, Johnny Parry Trio, Buzzard Lope as well as german artists like Robert Carl Blank, Arne Kopfermann and Sara Lorenz. On „Morning Comes“, some of those friends are at work, e. g. Richard Neuberg (Viarosa), Nadja Rüdebusch (Binoculers) and Fiona Brice (Midlake, Placebo).
