I had just moved to Florida and was just beginning to write songs for what was going to be my first solo record when one of my good friends Michael Godard called me. His daughter Page had been fighting cancer for quite a while and had just past away at 15. He asked if I could sing at her service......so I immediately jumped on a plane and headed back to California.
That day was a powerful one........ I was amazed at how much she had affected the world at such a young age and carried the stories I heard that day with me as I boarded the plane taking me back home. By the time I landed in Florida I had finished the lyrics to the song.
