I am a piano player and songwriter. I sing only because I need someone to sing my songs. I have a wonderful family, my beautiful wife Kristen, and three wonderful children!
I only have one experience of real "heartbreak" to draw from, which is what this song is about. It was at the beginning of the Fall 05, after Kristen and I had dated all Summer, and we had to be apart for the coming semester. I guess I'm lucky that this is the only experience I've had, because it turned out happy, when we were back together and engaged just a couple weeks later (we couldn't wait the whole semester).
So that is what the song is about to me, but I think that it can be taken a few different ways...
