Shepherd's Hill

I will not let you go
I will hold on to you 
with all of my heart

Because where do you belong
when you were born 
in the wrong country?

Where do you go
when you were intended 
for Shepherd's Hill?

I am not letting you go
because through the waves 
you were always there

The inconquerable island
that conquered our hearts
by its quite wind of honesty

But where do I belong 
when I was meant to be
a London boy in one big
extended family?

And then born in Denmark
left with no dreams
except in the music ?

I have been searching for my soul
and I have come to realize that somehow
it was left on the North Sea
where I found the winds
of searching souls
from all over the globe

Searching souls 
with quite winds of honesty

I am an anglophile
and I am the son
who was intended for London

I am the son
still searching for his soul
and in that search
I somehow have found it

Thank you, Dad

Thank you, Uncle Kim

Yes - thank you for being the faces 
of my dreams 

And I turn to my dreams
and I intend to live them
because I was meant for Shepherd's Hill

I was meant to live
I was meant to love
I was meant for honesty
