Looking back on days gone by. We were something.

Whenever she goes away I miss her. Still hard after all these years. Hold onto love. It may never come again.

I didn't have much of anything deep or meaningful in mind when I wrote this. It's a love song, particularly about heartbreak, and I just wanted to try a new take on it and try to make a catchy love song that was a little deeper than the initial words on the page.

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.
