This is a very different song from last year's tour but it's very beautifully sung here.

[sidonie3]

Anywhere you go, anyone you meet

Remember that your eyes can be your enemy

I said, "Hell is so close and heaven's out reach"

I ain't givin' up quite yet, I've got too much to lose

Don't wanna make the same mistakes that put my momma in her grave...

Yeah, so I think the writer is saying he wants to be faithful and not hurt his bride as he saw his mother hurt by infidelity. Very thoughtful writing.

He said they wrote it about the ins and outs, ups and downs of relationshops.

[2BPhyxsius]

seems he was more down than up I know what your saying-

[fdlfd]

he wrote it for his diabetic daughter. his mom died from it.

he's comforting his daughter saying even though its dangerous they can make it through it together

[sidonie3]

Chris is an awesome harmonizer. I didn't know.

[sidonie3]

This is the way it should have been produced for the CD.
