It was just the one chorus line that showed itself. I get all the ideas at night. Driving brings them out too. I couldn’t get home fast enough to get it “on tape”. Just the one line, the melody, and the chords that went with it. This…. Is the only….. Reeeaaal Love….. That I…Have ever….. Known. The space between the words had a huge impact. It made the tone so absolute. No chorus had ever sounded so true. I had written the most honest thing I’d ever heard. It was two days from Valentine’s Day. I already had the ring and we’d already had a writting session scheduled for the next day. Morgan and I finished it in a few hours. It all just “happened”. Like the best of them always do. The next day we were engaged.
