Story behind the song
one day, when i was working at a small music publishing company in nashville, there was pretty much nothing left for me to do that required my attention that afternoon....so, i picked up a really nice old guitar--there were always cool, upscale, old guitars sitting around in every room--they just sat around unplayed and always wore rusty strings that must have not been re-strung for at least a zillion years....well, it was raining lightly outside and i began to feel a bit nostalgic and sentimental....and there came this moment where the melody just fell into place out of nowhere and it seemed the lyrics to the first verse very naturally unfolded....it actually took me around 3/4 years to return to the song to wrap it up. it still continues to be one of my favorites.
Lyrics
NO, I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE the door is open come on in this place is a wreck but if you're brave enough you're welcome pull up a chair i'll put on some coffee looks like the pull of this life has worn you thin please know you got a friend CHORUS no, i'm not going anywhere regardless of the weather let the winds blow and storms beat down i'm with you till the bitter end so go ahead go where you need to go if your heart is caving in you can say so if you need a safe place you got one whatever you need, please know i'm praying you some (CHORUS) BRIDGE so if any time along the way you need to be sure of me look over next to you and there i'll be. (CHORUS) (CHORUS) written by anne davis sometimes i write songs (BMI)
