What is this song about?
This Song was written in 2019 in Koh Phangan, Thailand. I had just arrived in this beautiful, tropical island, but was missing my family and loved ones back home. I was feeling a bit low, sitting in my tiny hut, and then I lifted my head, looked out at the paradise outside, and felt that everyone is here with me, deep in my heart.
lyrics
On a lonely island – in the the southern sea
Thinking 'bout my loved ones, so far, far from me...
The spectacles of heaven – the scent in the breeze
The earth and the skies, meet in me
Chorus:
And you're all here in my heart – Even when we're far, far apart
And you're all here with me – for all eternity
lalalalala....lalalallalalalalalalalalaaa
Singing for the spiders, hiding in the walls
For the palmtrees and the flowers. Oh the ocean calls!
And the dance of the rock and wood, as old as the moon
And the sun and the earth and wind, we're building a home
Chorus:
And you're all here in my heart – Even when we're far, far apart
And you're all here with me – for all eternity
lalalalala....lalalallalalalalalalalalaaa
Meeting a turtle, at night in my dreams
Wondering about, what does it all mean
Do you wanna grab a coffee – let's go for a walk
Down by the water, oh it's so nice to talk!
Hello beautiful stranger, where do you go?
Will we ever meet again, oh nobody knows...
Could have been something – you touched my soul
Crossing pathways - now each go on their own
And you're all here in my heart – Even when we're far, far apart
And you're all here with me – for all eternity
lalalalala....lalalallalalalalalalalalaaa
