"Christmas Morning"
"Christmas Morning" came from all the nights I've spent driving home after shows in December, watching snow fall on empty roads and aching to get back to the people I love. Touring is a dream come true, but it also means missing cozy moments - the fireplace glow, the tree lights, the feeling of being exactly where you belong. This song is about that journey home: staying up through the night, imagining my family celebrating and hoping they know I'm racing back to them. It's the promise that no matter how far away I am - physically or emotionally - when Christmas morning comes, I'll be there, boots on the stairs, ready to wrap myself in the warmth of home again.
