i discovered this song on Hear Music Volume 5 from Starbucks in 2002 or so... "i think life chose me after all" is such a wonderful line to end it with, you must hear the studio version and listen to the lyrics. amazing songwriting.
From The Green World album in case anyone wants to know. I had to look it up myself. Planning to see her this week. Looks like she's solo on this tour...no band?
Dar is so incredible. i am a singer and guitar player. she is my role model, and i can relate this song to my life on a metaphoric level. thank you so much for posting this.

Beautiful lyrics, beautiful music and thanks for the great sound quality! Btw, "February" is a pretty awesome song too!

Thanks so much for posting this one. It's hard to choose just one Dar Williams favorite, but if I had to - it would be After All.
This is a real treat!

Such a great song that ends with a wonderfully affirmative, and real, statement.
Too bad this video didn't capture Dar singing the opening verse of the song:
"Go ahead, push your luck,
find out how much love the world can hold.
Once upon a time I had control
and reigned my soul in tight."
