This song was written on the morning of my birthday, 2016. I awoke in a hotel room in Denver, Colorado to a feeling that amazingly good things were coming. No, I was not high. This sense that great things were coming my way would not leave me alone until I wrote this song, chords and all, that morning. This is not a song about hope. It’s a song about the absolute certainty of big crazy good things coming in to your life in the near future, and welcoming that openly, even through you don’t know what it may be. It’s about embracing the surprise.
