The story behind "Can't Make You Stay":

December 2012. I was watching my dad’s marriage slowly crumble. He wasn’t smiling anymore & I’d catch him staring off into the distance with his mind in knots. I could feel his pain. They had lost trust in each other and forgot what their love used to mean. I showed him the beginning stages of an idea I had started and he lent his heart to the song. At the end, you always think about the beginning...the happy times. This song is saying, “I really do want to grow old with you but if it’s too late then I can’t make you stay".
