And It's Okay If You Have To Go Away. Oh, Just Remember The Telephone Works Both Ways ((you And I Both))

Surrender To Life Itself And You'll Just Be Rewarded With So Many Things. And I've Been Rewarded So Many Times, In So Many Mysterious Ways. So I Have No Reason To Be Disappointed With Anything.

Last Weekend A Young Man Asked Me How I Remain So Positive. “it Seems All The Negativity In The World Doesn’t Affect You,” He Said. I Had No More Than A Minute With The Young Man So I Offered This: It’s All About Where You Choose To Put Your Attention, And I Choose To Be Happy.

Sometimes Touring Can Warp Reality Because You're Never In One Place Long Enough To Get A Feel For It. You Don't Interact With People Long Enough To Know What Real Life Is. That's Why A Lot Of Artists Write Songs About Longing And Missing People When They're On The Road. I Do My Best To Keep My Mind Open And I Read A Lot When I'm On Tour, So I Hope I Have Good Things To Write About. I'm Constantly In The Songwriting Process.
