    "There were days I come to visit, you didn't even know my name...." This line hits me the hardest. There are people living this song every day.......every day. SIgh..

    Is this one of the best songs ever written? Good grief, it’s a beauty

    40 years together. Cancer took her 5 years ago. I can identify with oh so much you say here.
    Thanks for the tune and words.

    Why doesn't this video have more views? Its a deep song. Way better than any country music you will hear on the radio.

    I lost my wife 4 years ago to cancer, this song is my anthem. We were married for 39 years, and most days I sit in the kitchen waiting for her to come home.

      Greg Margerum I can't imagine Greg. I hope you find solace in your pain somehow. this song goes through me like a train. I can't imagine ❤

      Greg Margerum this breaks my heart. I hope you're ok Greg and I'm sorry this happened. I hope life has been good to you since then. You may be a stranger on the internet to me, I may be on the other side of the world, but I'm wishing the best for you. Sending well wishes

      Greg Margerum I hope you find your solace through it all. I'm also happy to know that strangers out there I won't every meet found their love and meaning in another human. It isn't easy, just special to think that you had so many years together, though there I will assume will never be enough

      Thank you Sophie, I've past the 5 year mark now and it does, I guess become more normal with time. But like you can hear in this song, when you are with someone so long, the person you grew up with, grew together with and became a responsible adult with, you just can replace that and it leaves a void the size of the Grand Canyon in your life. That is why this song, like Taylor says hits like a train. I have put the house we lived in for 38 years on the market and am moving to be closer to family. We built this house in 1978 with our own hands and you can imagine how hard it is to let go of, but it's time.

    We simply renamed the pie "pecan jerky." 10 days of courting, 42 years and counting ago, and I know just what it's like to be the lucky, unfortunate kind. Thanks for strumming my heart strings.

    Very good and sad and honest. I love how the camera stays on the passenger reflecting the words being sung.

    Well this song made me tear up when i first heard it on my turntable and this video is no different. Rockingham is a absolute masterpiece. Well done BJ. I always say I pretty much only listen to punk rock, but I saw you guys live probably seven years ago at the social in Orlando and it was such a powerful set. Ive loved your music ever since. I feel the passion you have for it and you are an outstanding songwriter. I hope nothing but the best for you and your family

    Heard this song for the first time Saturday live at the Visulite in Charlotte. When it gets into the verse about Altzheimers (I assume) I found a tear rolling down my cheek uncontrollably. I would like to know a bit of the back story on the video. Is this gentleman an actor or the real life inspiration? I picture him hearing this song for the first time while the camera rolled after visiting the gravesite. Or maybe there was absolutely no music on in the truck and the song was laid over it? Less serious question... was that an old App State sticker that was peeled off the back window?

      Kerry W. Burd, Jr. it's about his mother and father. The video is shot on the way back from the funeral.

    Am I the only one who was waiting for something to happen at the end other then a railroad crossing? I thought they were going to pull up to his wife's funeral.

      The video takes place on the ride home, after the funeral.

      Thanks for the reply BJ and thanks for the early download of Rockingham. This song is my favorite but the whole CD is amazing. Thanks for all the music you make.
