Chapter five

Lyrics

Stories of departure, momentum, memory and the lights that guide us home — collected from the road behind Northbound.

  1. Track 01

    First Light

    A quiet beginning, where a new road opens before the day has fully arrived.

    I’ll follow the first light, wherever it goes.

  2. Track 02

    Homebound

    A warm road song about returning, letting go and discovering that home can be a state of mind.

    Sometimes all you’re searching for is already home.

  3. Track 03

    Energized

    A nocturnal, inward song about solitude, silence and finding a way back to yourself.

    There’s a place inside me only silence knows.

  4. Track 04

    One More Mile

    A late-day drive with no destination, held together by fading light and the wish to keep going a little longer.

    Let’s borrow one more moment from the falling light.

  5. Track 05

    Crossing

    A harbor at daybreak, where tide, light and passing lives become part of the same quiet movement.

    Every wave keeps carrying a story passing through.

  6. Track 06

    Keeper of the Light

    A story of guidance, endurance and the steady light that brings travellers home.

    You simply keep on shining into open sky.

  7. Track 07

    Between the Fields

    A quiet afternoon in open country, where nothing dramatic happens and that becomes the point.

    I don’t need the answer to know this feels like life.

  8. Track 08

    If Time Had Waited

    A reflective song about memory, missed moments and the lives we might have lived.

    If time had waited, maybe we’d have known.

  9. Track 09

    Northern Lights

    A night drive where distance, memory and the sky turn the journey inward.

    Sometimes all you’re looking for is waiting deep inside.

  10. Track 10

    Where The River Slows

    The album’s closing reflection on home, stillness and the point where searching finally gives way to knowing.

    You don’t have to search anymore.
