It is our usual morning routine when we are home in Ireland for Kylie to swim in the Irish Sea and Sammy to walk in the nearby woods and pathways. He was literally ‘sauntering’ when the chorus came into his head and he sang it on his phone. He did nothing else with it but shared it with Kylie who brought it to Mercyland Songwriter’s Workshop Ireland and sat with Jeff Carson and Sheila Easson. Together they finished it. Sauntering is kind of walking slowly, relaxed, and in no hurry, but this had other connotations attached to it like the idea of pilgrimage and personal reflection.
