While not explicitly dedicated to songwriter Craig Wilson, this song resonates deeply with his memory and the loss felt by those who knew him.
Allie Colleen shared, “This song is a tribute to loss and all that comes out of it. Sonically resembles the resiliency of healing and lyrically it represents the frustration of letting go. I hope it creates a safe space for recovery and pushes the listener forward to the pursuit of ‘more.’"
“This is one of my favorite songs I’ve ever been a part of; it has such a powerful message that I think will resonate with many people, and Allie’s performance is absolutely stunning. We knew we were onto something good the day we wrote it and I know Craig Wilson, our beloved co-writer who is no longer here with us, would be so proud,” added co-writer Alyssa Trahan.
“It was a moment
A season in my life
I put you in my plans
Did what I felt was right
I worked so hard
Just to watch it die
Sometimes you have to leave something’s behind
It was never getting better
It all felt so wrong
It was supposed to be forever
Now I wake up and it’s gone
But the sun will keep rising
Broken ground just needs the rain
It takes time moving on
But there’s grass on the grave
I buried the feelings
Memories they still come up
Now I see them differently
But love is always love
That doesn’t mean that it’s enough …”
