After we recorded what we thought was the whole record we returned to Austin and I was still feeling so excited and creative that I was playing music everyday, and this song popped out. As soon as I wrote it I knew we had to get it on the record, so we made a special trip back to Nashville to track it along with another song which will be a download. So happy it made the record! It is my thought process about how distance creeps into a relationship and can create a gap so big that no one can bridge it.
Like a wave on the ocean, won’t you bring it on home
‘Cause it’s escaping and taking the center of my heart
And as a toxic seed is planted deep in ground
We can’t cut it, or break it, or even burn it down
It becomes a thing and you stay
Well, I could go, just like you, I could disappear for days
Never knowing or feeling the building bitter pain
But as you touch me, I see into the water’s depth
And there’s a shining glimmer, a glimpse of what is left
Then it goes away
(Try try try try) Bring it on home
(Try try try try) Bring it on home
Away, away, away, away
Away, away, away, away
Away, away, away, away
Away, away, away, away
Bring it on home
