From the recording Family Portraits (Volume 1)
A love song to my 22 year old son, Willem.
Lyrics
Exceptional Millennial
Cycling up and down the glens in the Scottish countryside
Lovin’ life!
Cans of Tennants in two punnets on the side of your bike
And you’re right
It’s the simple things
The simple things in life
That make it worthwhile
The breeze on your face
The freedom that you taste
I’m in love
With an
Exceptional Millennial
Who knows what life is worth
Spreads a little kindness
Wherever he might roam across this earth
Walking in the Yorkshire Dales
You see a lamb being born
Brand new life!
Rest your weary limbs in the evening by sinking a few pints
And it’s true
It’s the little things
The little things you do
That matter so much
The directions you give
A stranger on the bus looking lost
I’m in love
With an
Exceptional Millennial
Who knows what life is worth
Spreads a little kindness
Wherever he might roam across this earth
What goes around
It comes around
What goes around comes around
Again and again and again
