Thanks though I must confess this song is the first track off our first album which was released in 2007.

As for the lyrics, when I got married my wife was not happy in her chosen field of study and it was amazing how much that affected me. I couldn't tell if she was displeased with me or what she was doing professionally. Turns out it wasn't me ;-) But still, it was something we had to get through. We did.

The whole album is insanely personal. We went through some tough times when we were first married, but 8 years later.... we're doing great.

Here's another song off that album called Ivy League Skin which references all of the faults I perceived that she thought I had. I think if I never made that album our marriage wouldn't have lasted.

Thanks for listening.
