All In

Backstory

This song was co-written with my dear friend Drew Kimball who passed away in November. Some of the lyrics are from conversations we had right before he passed away, and some, he gave to me after.

This song is a gift to Drew’s wife Tanya and their family. All proceeds from this song will go to Tanya and her family. 


Note: I sing Drew’s part and Cosette Smith (@cosettesmithmusic) sings Tanya’s.

Lyrics

You were a cursive line
Elegant in a perfect rhyme
And I loved you before the ink had dried
Yes, I loved you before the ink had dried

I was all in. All in. For forever.

I Drew outside the lines
With every color to make you smile
We drew a family on the pages of this life
”Drew, love and laughter on the pages of our life”

We were all in. All in. For forever.

We drew a ray of light
Warmth around us shining bright
And it held us through those darkest nights
”Drew us together, in those darkest nights”

We were all in. All in
We are all in. All in. For forever

Not even this can keep me from your side
I will be with you through the pages of this life
I will still hold you in that ray of light
My true companion, I love you for all time
And forever

We know the maker makes everything alright
We know the maker - who made you and I
We know the maker who makes the light
Will hold this family together for all time

And forever.
