Milk & Honey
Milk & Honey was written by Thomas. The lyrics were a collaborative effort between Thomas, Peter and Arnim, whom came up with the majority of the chorus.
It the first single for Boombox; the first new Beatsteaks song in 3 years! Prior to it's release, they put up the song's music sheets on their website for free download. A contest was held of who could play the song before even hearing it. The band's favourite version would end up on the CD single for the song. A lot of people, including bands like Donots, participated.
It has been played at most concerts since it's release.
Some People may run
While others have fun
Tryin’ to grab what they can
So I lie in the grass
I had too much and too fast
But the best of all times
Waiting out the days to go by
And waters run dry
But I’ve made up my mind
It´s calling me, call me anytime
It´s coming up each and every line
Keep calling me, call me anytime
Who-oh here is the song
For those who never ever
Sit back and recover
Here is the one
For those who never shiver
The cool cats I adore
Some people wear gloves
Carrying their portions of love
Until death comes from above
Now for dreams and for plans
You try as hard as you land
But I’ve made up my mind
It´s calling me, call me anytime
It´s coming up each and every line
Keep calling me, call me anytime
Who-oh here is the song
For those who never ever
Sit back and recover
Here is the one
For those who never shiver
The cool cats I adore
The cool cats I adore
The cool cats I adore
