So many people I know have had a rough time the past couple of years. I wanted my friends and family to know that it’s ok to be struggling, to feel like they’re going to crumble under the weight of everything. We don’t have to bear those burdens alone. If you find yourself in the valley, someone will be there to help you crawl back to the top of the mountain. And when you make it out, maybe you can help carry someone else back up.
lyrics
You don’t have to worry
About a thing
When the world starts getting heavy
I’ll be ready to help you carry the weight
Hello, I just wanted to check in
Would you pick up the phone?
I’ll be over with open arms
You’re lonely but you’re not alone
Let’s go down where the rivers meet
Catch your breath for a spell
Close your eyes and see what might arise
We can make time stand still
I see you flickering
We can fuel that flame again
You don’t have to worry
About a thing
When the world starts getting heavy
I’ll be ready to help you carry the weight

This ain't Texas. This ain't Nashville. This is country that straddles the US and Canadian border. Its wide open, strong, and a little vulnerable, and in a lot of cases having a good ol' time. I love her feel. veenstar

A very clever songwriter and an album that bears many, many repeat listens. Worth the price for the Little Feat reference (in Tehachapi) alone, but it's her way with an image that sticks longest. "You left the building in a flurry / Had your boots on in the house." Caoimhín

i love eilen jewell. just listened to the entire album, get behind the wheel, now going back and listening to and savoring individual tracks. her music has an indescribable beauty. it's real, honest, sweet, powerful, touching, universal. it's a special artist that can do all that and leave you coming back for more. tikibarjim
