We’re Okay (Story Behind the Song)

I thought you might enjoy the story behind the song We’re Okay from my new album “Rise”:

I like this song a lot because it feels like I definitely made it through a close personal relationship full of daily trials and tests!

Funny, I was just sitting here in my easy chair as I started to write this out, when I got a  pleasant phone call from my ex; kind of one of those water under the bridge things where both parties would rather act differently and let the sun in again.

And so the theme for We’re Okay came up again today as I write this. It’s about finally mending fences with someone you’ve had a challenging history with; it’s about forgiveness and choosing to let the love back in. It’s about moving on in a healthy way. It’s about how a better tomorrow can eventually come shining through, if that’s our intention.

In my case I’m light-hearted about the fact I can finally say “We’re Okay” now.
