Ghosts feat. Vania

by Timothy Jaromir

/

about

On the 30th of September, Zurich-based musician Timothy Jaromir will be releasing “Ghosts”, his delicate, dreamy folk song featuring the up and coming singer Vania.

A prelude for the album Hiraeth, which will be released in November 2020, this is a song written by Jaromir to bring comfort on dark, sleepless nights, gently push to the side any feelings of self-doubt, and to coax arms to uncross and reach out for a long-missed hug.

"Ghosts" is deliberately simple, with instrumentation that allows for harmonious interplay between the two unique voices. A trombone reinforces the depth of the song’s warmth and charm.

“Ghosts" is the result of an international collaboration. David Baxter who plays guitar and Brian Kobayakawa on double bass both hail from Toronto while Vania currently resides in New York.

lyrics

GHOSTS

Close your eyes, close the door it’s cold outside
Come on in, warm your feet, I’ll dry your eyes
The twists and turns, the goss outside, come settle down 
The mountain range, the court and spark in silent town

Cause you can’t and you won’t and you don’t stop 
Living a dream that you made up
And now you’re filling it up with silence and heartache 
But the patterns appear from the outside 
Like stones along the wayside
Reminding you of the high tide and danger

Drop your guard, be my guest, I will hold
Rest your bones, it’s been a while, since you let go
The falls and fights, the push and pull, the frozen heights 
The sleepless nights, the do’s and don’ts, the blinding light

La la la la la la

Cause you can’t and you won’t and you don’t stop 
Living a dream that you made up
And now you’re filling it up with silence and heartache 
But the patterns appear from the outside 
Like stones along the wayside
reminding you of the high tide and danger

Cause you can’t and you won’t and you don’t stop 
Living a dream that you made up
And now you’re filling it up with silence and heartache 
But the patterns appear from the outside 
Like stones along the wayside
Reminding you of the high tide and danger
