About Babylodge 

Babylodge was born in Zürich, Switzerland when singer/songwriter Reto Müller started to write and record acoustic songs while his little daughters were sleeping in the room next door.
Years later, after engagements in other music projects lke Caloon, Kapällä Vörig, he started together with technician and sounddesigner Fabian Trüb to record and produce the songs.

While still treated as a side project for quite some time, babylodge finally finished 13 songs with additional support from bass player Lukas Juchli who played on 7 songs.

The 13 songs were release on the debut album "sunday stories" in December 2020 as a fanrelease.

All the positiv feedback motivated us to now release the album to a wider audiance starting with a radio version of the single "Who". The whole album is now finally releasd on January 2022.

The babylodge music is characterized by emotional and soft vocals/acoustic guitars, pop melodies mixed with electronic beats and soundscapes.

Currently, babylodge are working new material released beginning 2023.

We hope that you enjoy the music - with best wishes
Reto & Fabian

Lyrics

1. flake

You flake
You’ve always been in trouble
When everything is stone
You’ll be awake
 
While you are
Bouncing from this to then
Sometimes into a world
Misfit puzzle break
 
So wait - we’re in trouble
Strangest thoughts awake
Nothing is ever there
But every time somewhere
I am too late
 
So don’t wait
Slow down pace
Just for a moment of a real calming grace
Missing the one silverside myself
And my travelling came to its end
 
What’s now in my hand?
Nothing and every trace
Everything’s right here
Please don’t fade away
 
Faith - we’re in trouble
Strangest thoughts awake
I’m trying to stay in frame
And always walk in lanes
Life can’t lie anyway

" A song about a flake that is as fragile as we are .."

Reto

2. mr. shelter

When I wake up at night
With teardrops in my eyes
Days are haunting me
Never learned to fight

Mr. Shelter
Your cover’s over me
Protect me from the storms
I cannot see
Keep em all away – I’m afraid
Keep em all away – I’m so afraid

Ohhhh, shadows on the wall
Looking down on me yes, I’m so small
Ohhhh, monsters on the wall
Where is mother and where is dad
Take me away

So I push my sheet aside
Run through the night
Squeeze in-between, to hide
Mr. Shelter your net is under me
Now I can fall away
I’m out of reach
They can go away - I’m safe
I’m falling away - I’m safe


" Song about my daugther looking for shelter between the partents bed"

Reto

3. colorful inside

Colour inside
We all gonna be superstars
Scratch off black paint
What’s underneath isn’t far
Are you shining through?
Your dead emotions
Seagull, can’t you talk? 

And I swear
You’re colourful inside
Colourful inside
But you’re tamed
Colourful inside

We trust you
You always act in good faith
But inside of you
Your dreams faint of with no one
Kill your daily grind with some inspiration

Cause I swear
Colourful inside
I am colourful inside
But you’re tamed
Colourful inside


" We are all colorful inside.. So scratch off the paint .."

Reto

4. who

I pretend to be ok
But I know I need a holiday
To break out of my everyday 

I call the boss to say ok
There’s no point in now for me to stay
I’ll be off this night don’t wait 

My daydreaming is past - didn’t know how long it last
Tell me where I wanna go
I’ll carry me away – following my will instead
Somewhere else I just wanna be, rotate..

Sell the car, the house the cat
For a shore bungalow – I get
Now I know where I wanna be
At the beach of Genova
Boarding girls and I’m the lucky star
Now I know what I wanna be

It’s time now that’s the day – I’m washing all my dreams away
Tell me who I now wanna be
I’m leaving home today – for livin’ on a holiday
Tell me who I now gonna be
livin’ on a holiday

I am livin’ on a holiday
I am livin’ on a holiday
I am livin’ on a holiday
I am livin’ on a holiday 


" Some wishful thinking about livin' on a holiday.."

Reto

5. late

I got sandman eyes
I’m wrapped in a quilt
A “not wanna get up” day
I’ll be running late
Call the boss - to day no way
I can’t make it in today

Things can change in a day
Tomorrow I will try again
I’m waiting for another day
But for now, I’ll stay in my bed 

Disconnect outside
Breakfast in bed
I’m the master of my realm       
Call a girl for a day
Tomorrow can wait
I’m so happy when I’m late    

Things might change on another day
Tomorrow I’ll try again
I’m waiting for another day
But for now, I’ll stay in my bed

" Beeing late can be the best thing that can happen.."

Reto

6. sometimes

Sometimes I wish there is no time
Sometimes I just wish there is no time at all
Sometimes I wish we got more time
Sometimes I wish there’s more time for all

To see it all
To live it all

Longing for the moment praised
With yesterdays in mind and working for tomorrow days to take
A picture but it all won’t last a day
Is sometime today

Sometimes I am waiting for my time
Sometimes I just hope there is no time at all

All so calm
All so calm



" Time is a mistery.."

Reto

7. angel

Alone in the desert
And in a world without rain
nothing to wait for
only the pain

So maybe 
I could be so alone
But I can not live
beeing all on my own

In summer's grass
when it carpets the ground
That's where I long for
alive in sounds
oh my childrens laughter won't end

But maybe an angel
could be so alone
But I can not live
beeing all on my own

" A song about my mother who passed away way too early"

Reto

8. baby

We were talking so much 
seven days and nights we touched all big thoughts
I still miss your touch
and your scent, like a 1000 blooming parcs

Touched you in a night on fire
I‘ll never be the same
and you left me behind the hard way

I cannot cut off this day
I still miss you anyway

I never saw you again
felt through seven years missing you all day
I just got one touch
but your scent still flows through my veins

Touched you in a night on fire
I’ll never be the same
then you left me behind the hard way

Oh baby come again near
Have you ever been real?


" Have you ever been real?"

Reto

9. desert child

Finally, I found a little stream
And watch through a window
Swimming together with banners they sing
One after the other jumps in
In hoping this is better
Then sitting aside waiting for rain
Come with us
We’re in the same boat
This water we trust
It will take us away

And I get the feeling I am drowning
Estranged of myself
Are we collectively drowning?
And no way back to take
Waiting for a little bit of rain
I'm waiting for a little bit of rain

We’re all float down within
The stream becomes a river
Not thinking it’s just a seasonal thing 
Suddenly we end up in the sea
Where wave dilutes the river
No island in sight wherever we see
Come with us
We’re in the same boat
This water of trust
It will take us away 

And I get the feeling I am drowning
Estranged of myself
Are we collectively drowning?
For a desert child
It seemed the chance to get out
I was a desert child
Now I am lost far way out
But no way back to take
I’m waiting for a little bit of rain
Waiting for a little bit of rain

" Swim with the flow makes happy but blind..."

Reto

10. beautiful

You stumble around, the thoughts in your mind
You trip on your tongue, but you find it in time
You’re yelling at me, and calling my bluff
I won’t play ruff

You’re hard as a stone, crushing my will
You tell me I won’t, but you know I’m still
My quiet of mind, will keep it all fine
I won’t play ruff

But you are so beautiful, to me
You’re my miss incredible, I see
Yes, and you are so beautiful
To me - to me, to me, to me

But late there at night, out there is a fight
You’re taking me into the guard of your warmth 
You cuddle my neck, creaming my back
Kissing my all over oh I like that
And I forgot the first verse, what was it all about?

So, stay here with me, in bed we are free
I will be here as long as you love me, my dear
Out there I don’t care, cause…

You are so beautiful – to me
You’re my miss incredible, I see
Yes, and you are so beautiful, to me
You’re my miss incredible, I see
I see I see I see – I see



" Yes, you are so beautiful.."

Reto

11. darkness

I’m going through the darkness         it’s night
I’m going through the darkness         I’m blind
I feel the breeze                                    I’m cold
I’m all alone 

A thousand things arise
The lights did blind my eyes
The memories of a coloured world
Stay inside of me

I’m going through the darkness         I pray
I’m going through the darkness         today
Lend me an open eye                         catch a ray I might
Am I all alone?

A thousand things arise
The lights did blind my eyes
The memories of a coloured world
Stay inside of me


" The real coloured wolrd is inside.."

Reto

12. sigmund's fate

Sigmund’s fate, I watch with your eyes
Forever you were fighting against the windmill turning without your sway
Giving up is not your style

You stumble over time
And every fall
Is making it even harder to leave the cage inside of you

Digging for a new world
Where nothing is to blame
No agent could tame you
Blue dust – heal my world

Sigmund take
A look at yourself
Remember when we were young and free and
Driving all down to Spain

This is not the change
Revoke the end

Digging for a new world
Where nothing is to blame
No agent could tame you
Blue dust – heal my world


" Song about a friend attempting to commit suicide"

Reto

13. you wouldn't listen

I see you carry away all mystics, feelings and wonderings
What isn’t for you has no worth
You try to canalize my thoughts
You make me run and buy and work and fight and push every day

You wouldn’t listen
When I cry alone
Not finding my way home 

Look, we don’t care about future prospects
Enjoy everyday playing music
At the beach to ocean’s rhythm
Every night we see the moon comes rising
And birds playing games in trees
So tall and strong like witnesses of time 

We wouldn’t listen
To your mainstream shows
Hiding me my way home


" Often, what generates most noise is not of most value in our life.."

Reto
