about

Will Kimbrough:
"Love prevails was written to order. But we were too close to the deadline, so the song was never used in the art show for which it was intended. We wrote the song based loosely on Rodney Crowell's memoir, ‘Chinaberry Sidewalks’.

I was on tour with Rodney while he worked on the book and while he only occasionally let me take a look at what he was working on, he told me a lot of stories of his childhood. So I wanted to write about a family devastated by violence, stuck in poverty. In this very real story, love did and does prevail. And doesn't Dean sing it with such a sweet hurt?"

lyrics

Love is all
Love is murder
Take a look at this house
Battle scarred
Old and dirty
Love is all that is left of us now

Where there once lived a family
Is a brown, empty lot
Grown with weeds, and with memories
We forgave but never forgot

Though we tried our best to wreck it
We tried our best and failed
I can still hear the sound
Of the sun going down
In the end love prevails

All the things
That went on here
All the blood
And the shame
Just the same
We belong here
All in all, in the end
Love remains

Though we tried our best to wreck it
We tried our best and failed
I can still hear the sound
Of the sun going down
In the end love prevails
In the end love remains
