We can’t seem to alter the subject matter of our dreams and a particular, reoccurring nightmare is the inspiration behind this song, Looking Back. My high school’s football team was in the hunt for winning our district and we were playing against a much larger school. There were only seconds left and we were behind 12 to 7, but we were on the one-yard line. I was quarterback and it was 4th down. If we punch it in, we win! We lost – all because I called a boneheaded play. Every year, as football season begins, I am reminded of this disappointment by awaking from yet another reoccurring nightmare

This song is about a guy having a fond memory of his spouse.

A chance meeting on a flight that turns out to be lasting.

Things don't always finish like they start.

ballad, w big CH
I;m the age now where I realize that some hurts, emotional, not just physical, will not truly be relieved until we get to our final resting place. I don't want to come across as jaded, just to know there will be peace eventually.

This is a melody added to Dan Regan's lyrics.

I wrote this with Hunter Leath. Hunter writes for Daywind Music, and he produced and sang on the demo.

For those perfectionist songwriters listening, this is one that should make you laugh and/or cringe...whichever. This is the worst arrangement ever and it took many hours of my time to get it this bad. I wanted a country rock song and I got this.

It's a look back at a marriage.
