I wrote this song for Maarten, my bass player, when he
married the love of his life, who he met when he was 14
years old. These people found each other but also keep
fighting for the relationship they have built, and that is just
the most precious thing.
lyrics
I FOUND THE ONE
this rusty armor
These worn out shoes
No pointy ending to the swords I use
I my sails don’t catch the northern wind
I’ll find a wind that will
Call up my friends to say I’m hooked
I chased a love and found my roots
Call up my friends to say I’m done
In the rays of autumn sun I found the one
I battled stormclouds
And cut them loose
I felt the earth shift
on my old ruins
I my sails don’t catch the northern wind
I’ll find a wind that will
Call up my friends to say I’m hooked
I chased a love and found my roots
Call up my friends to say I’m done
In the rays of autumn sun I found the one
I’ll be home when winter comes I found the one
I can’t believe what I’ve become
I found the one
In the rays of autumn sun
I found the one
Can’t believe who I’ve become
I found the one
Call up my friends to say I’m done
In the rays of autumn sun I found the one
