So this next song was one of the first songs I wrote after I had really a collapse in my late 20s.
I think I was trying so hard for so long to be something else because I didn't think that who I was was near good
enough for anything and I got real caught up in a lot a lot of bad stuff and I was going down and then
I knew I was gonna cry when I talk about this because I always cry when I talk about Scott, you know.
He is my savior
And
he came in there man and
in a lot of psych wards and a lot of rehabs he was there and he rocked me to sleep and
and he's just been a wonderful man and and I really thought that I shouldn't even do this anymore and I felt like I
crapped all over everything God gave me and I didn't deserve it and
I don't know one day I woke up and I called my manager my beautiful manager David
He's been with me for 25 years almost and I just said
You know, hey man, is it okay if we maybe try it again, you know, and he's like absolutely I got your back
I'm there with you
So I want to dedicate this song to my manager David who's been with me for so long how much I love you
and my husband Scott Yeah
