[Kissed You] Good Night

(Kissed You) Good Night

This song is the hardest one for me to sing because it carries me back to the day my mom died. I can still see her in that room, connected to machines, her breaths shallow and strained. The sound of her gasping for air is carved into me. It felt like watching life slip away in slow motion, but being powerless to stop it. Those last days felt unreal, as if time had bent in on itself, stretching and collapsing at once.

You think you will have one last conversation, one final chance to say all the words you carry in your heart. I thought I would be able to tell her everything, to hold her hand and hear her answer me back. But instead there was silence, her body too tired to respond, her eyes slipping away until she just stopped breathing. That moment will haunt me for the rest of my life.

It was as if the world shattered in an instant, and yet the world outside kept going like nothing had changed. Grief is cruel like that.

But there is also hope. The song points me toward heaven, toward the promise that death is not the end. I cling to the truth that my mom is with Jesus, that she went home before me. The thought of seeing her again keeps me steady when the grief threatens to drown me.

The Bible says in Revelation 21 that God will wipe away every tear from our eyes, and there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain. I hold onto that with everything in me. One day the gasping and the machines will be forgotten, and all that will remain is joy in His presence.

Until then, I sing this song with both sorrow and hope. Sorrow because I miss her more than words can hold. Hope because I know love is stronger than the grave, and one day I will see her again when I too go home.

Thinking 'Bout You (feat. Lauren Alaina)

Fiercely rooted in the classics, the girl who left her Kentucky home and high school at 16 to take a job at Dollywood has grown into a woman who embraces the genre’s forward progression and is confident in what she wants to say. Lighting a fire with her debut album EVERY LITTLE THING and the PLATINUM-certified history making title track, Carly has since become “Country’s ‘it’ girl” (ABC Radio), touring alongside Blake Shelton, Rascal Flatts and Luke Bryan. With the most CMA Awards nods for any new artist nominee in 2020, Carly led with New Artist of the Year, Song of the Year, Video of the Year and won Musical Event of the Year for her PLATINUM-certified, No. 1 duet with Lee Brice “I Hope You’re Happy Now.” In a year of uncertainty, Carly turned to the comfort of records she’s drawn inspiration from since her childhood dream started to take hold. Like those before who spoke their minds with a little sass and steel guitar – Dolly, The Chicks, Trisha, Reba, Patty Loveless – she leaned on her own intuitions with Top 30-and-rising single “Next Girl,” and a clever new video. Carly explores more of a pivotal year with a seven-song collection called 29 (available now via Big Machine Records), finding creative simpatico with Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne following the unexpected death of her mentor and former producer busbee.  Her catalogue boasts over 1 billion streams, Carly marks a new chapter coming of age. For the latest information and more, visit CarlyPearce.com.
