Story behind the song
This is only tribute song to Michael Hedges that I have written to date. Following a very stressful, frustrating day at work, I wanted/needed to get lost in my music for a while once I got home. I believe that Michael's influence played a considerable part in the song's inception because I had been so smitten with the sounds and feelings in "Rickover's Dream". I must have listened to that song a hundred times, and I even fell asleep with it coming through my headphones the night before I started writing this. "If only" is a question we often ask ourselves, and while I was composing, I was thinking of Michael as well as what would have happened in my life if I hadn't ever quit playing. All my songs are essentially live. They are recorded in one take and no studio tricks (like punch-ins, overdubbing, or cut and paste) were used.
