About the Track

- Description
Following the release of the album Kardia in 2015, Mourah is back. This new title announces his new album Euphony to be released around March 2020. This track is here organic, majestic, bewitching and dreamlike wrapped in an indie-pop costume with trip-hop resonances. It invites the listener for an escapade to the borders of multiple pasts inhabited by ghost lovers and sometimes forgotten family relationships.
Like the rest of the album, it was mixed by pivotal sound engineer and producer Yvan Bing (Kitchen Studio, Geneva) and mastered by acclaimed Mandy Parnell (Massive Attack, Radiohead, Björk, Jamie Liddell, Feist, etc) at Black Saloon Studios in London. Mourah, multi-instrumentalist and producer, continues his solitary journey as a songwriter and performer to reveal a more refined and intimate approach, with the aim of offering a work that is always accessible yet intelligent and profound.
The clip was directed by the young and very promising Swiss-Dutch director Frederik Maarsen with his colleague Samuel Zerbato in charge of the photography. It also stars luminous actress Vanille Lehmann who is currently pursuing her ascension on the stages of Parisian theatres. Shot in July and September in the Graubünden and Lake Zurich (Switzerland), it offers the viewer a misty and poetic journey marked by great technical mastery and sensitivity.

Lyrics:
I’m homeless
Since you’ve been gone
You were my roof
My floor, my wallsI’m clueless
About where to go
You were my road
My destinationYou took the keys
Of my freedom
‘Cause to be true is to be free
And I was real with you
I’m locked outside
Out of your life
I’m a vagabond now
I’m a vagabond now
There’s a whole world to stride
Instead I hang around
Waiting for you
Waiting for youI’m helpless
Without your science
You were my bookshelf
My inspirationI’ve been sleepless
Your hair and skin
They were my bed
My silky sheetsI wonder where you are
Should I keep hoping?
Why you’ve gone so far
Should I get going?
I wonder where you are
Should I keep hoping?Yeah I’m a vagabond
You're my one you're my home
I gotta let go and leave this town
Instead I hope and stay around
That’s where you and I belong
But for now I’m just a vagabond
But for now I’m just a vagabond
I’m just a vagabond
I’m just a vagabond - Album Vagabond (single)
