Don't say goodbye is a song about man who fears his wife will leave him when hard times have surfaced. He reminds her that he saved her from similar conditions and hopes to change her mind.

We still live in a world that has different cultural segments that judge women harshly for meeting their basic human needs. This is a song about a woman (not necessarily from a woman's perspective, but could be) who got lonely and reached out for something to touch that loneliness. The idea behind this song is that women should not feel ashamed of being lonely and seeking human contact. It's something we all need. I just hope the song is good enough to do the idea justice.

Just one of those songs that popped in my head. It came to me while washing dishes, and I just wrote it there at the sink. I like how it turned out. The chorus is really catchy, and I think the verses say a lot more than just the few words on the page would suggest. Like a modern song, is how I envision it.

I live in the Appalachia Mountains in the southern United States, and a lot of people find some sort of shame in that and rush to get out. I like the old stories; the views, the culture, the food, the people. I'm just fine with living here. This song is just a bit of a celebration of my home and a bit of the stories I've heard told.

When I was young and in high school, I used to walk to school with a group of friends. Old lady Diane lived on the way, and she was definitely an eccentric piece of work. She was really nice, but also very odd and would say the most random things. I guess most people have their own version of "Diane" that they've met in life. This is just a song dedicated to her beautiful weirdness.
