Can you please do concert? You might be a little introvert. Even if you won't sing for us, we will sing the song to you! Love it so much! Thank you for sharing your thoughts and song with us, Roland! We love you in the darkness and light ✨️

Roland, your heart is the most beautiful source of art and I am glad you share so much of it in your music. 💙

this is such a magnificent celebration of love - will be replaying for the next foreseeable ever

I honestly love your music so much. I take it upon myself to advertise your music to anyone I see or speak to. Your music is by far the best thing that i discovered and loved for the past 4 years and the only thing that'll probably keep me alive for the next few years 'til i make it or break it. Please don't stop making music.

Thinking about our 3-year-old daughter consumes me - she's growing so quickly. The reality that she'll soon move out, and we won't have those everyday mornings with her, hits me hard. 🫶💔😇

That's enchanting. As someone without kids it's lovely to see the words being applied that way. Maybe that was a thought your parents had when looking at you as a kid. The person this song is about is no longer in my life so it's sort of the opposite. When I wrote it I was waking up next to them. By the time I released it I was looking back at those moments wishing time would have stopped. Now new love is entering my life and the wheels keep turning.
