In Their Words: “This track had a great feel when it was going down in the studio. It was like every one of us could see the images in the video as we played it. We were living in it. My son Grayson’s mandolin touch perfectly connected what the two guitars had to say and raised the song to a whole other level.” — Shawn Lane
“I think this song came from a strong connection to the mountains, and thoughts of someone a good distance away. As far as the melody, it literally was natural to this story.” — Richard Bennett
