I'm a songwriter in Nashville. My music ranges from country to southern rock to pop. I don't have aspirations of being an artist. I'll leave that up to the pros and hopefully get a cut or two one day. All songs here are copywrited by me and any other co-writers or publishers involved with any particular song.

Story behind the song
I had the first line of the song from the get-go, just didn't know where it was going. Later I came up with the alliteration in the chorus leading to the hook. The dots all got connected along the way somehow. It was a reality check for me, when I was worrying too much about getting in the Music Row scene and chasing things I thought would make me happy only to realize that happiness was already right in front of me. When I saw it going that direction, it became a song written to and for my wife who has unflinchingly supported me and nudged me along the way.
Lyrics
Baby I'm the type To sit up late at night Cause I might miss something You've seen me chase some dreams Waste some time and steam I'm always hunting But the place where I belong Is where I've been all along Chorus: Of all the things I've tried and done And all the stones I've turned In all the journeys I've been on The one thing that I've learned Is to be here And be strong Girl because You're where I belong I could lose myself in work I could give until it hurt And still be empty I could have a million friends I could justify the ends But without you with me The means don't mean a thing Without the peace you bring Chorus Bridge: Baby there's a million things I've missed along the way But I can't miss out on your love for just one day So I'll be here And I'll be strong Yeah I'll be here And I'll be strong Girl because You're where I belong
