Musicians Tell Their Stories.
This song was inspired by a couple of different sources. First, my dear friend Amy said that she'd like to hear me sing something slow and Irish. And so I decided to write a slow song about Ireland. It was filled with tombstones of the hundreds of missionaries that lived on the grounds as well as ruins of old abbeys. Because the missionaries were such hard workers and very conservative in their spendings they had amassed a large fortune of gold that were developed into holy relics.
