Find encouragement that we all can find growth and goodness amid the challenges of life. Ezra Holbrook grounds himself in a deep earthy similie to sing a song of hope and redemption in all of relationships.
For all who carry spring in your heart, this song is for you!
Comment from Ezra
When I wrote this song I was struggling through some personal issues, issues that I felt were impacting the quality of my relationships with other people. The song is about meeting someone who inspires you to overcome your demons, hopefully becoming a better person. Its about redemption, second chances and whether or not we really can change who we are for the better. Needless to say I certainly hope we can.
