Track Listing and Video

1. The Bridge (set in 1969, Arthur and Faye are a married couple moving into their new home)
2. Nobody (Arthur enters the military during the Vietnam War- not necessarily with Faye's blessing, which implies that he joined voluntarily - while Faye is pregnant with Charles)
3. Awaken Me (Faye receives the news that Arthur has died serving our country, while still pregnant with Charles)
4. One Awkward Moment (set in 1999, Charles comes home to Sammy after a long day at work; Sammy is showing the signs of having artistic talent just like her mother - who died while giving birth to Sammy, but now asks Charles if his mother also died the same way - it is portrayed that Charles, and his mother, are estranged)
5. One More Song for You (Charles reads the letter that Arthur wrote to him while he and Sammy rebuild their relationship with Faye)
6. Love Moved First (as the relationship grows - it is revealed that Faye also has artistic talent, specifically pottery - Faye gives Charles the news that she is terminally ill)
7. In the Hands of the Potter (Charles and Sammy now care for Faye in her last days; at the video's end, Charles discovers that Faye has died)
8. Even When You're Running (set in the "present day" - 2019 - Sammy - now a young adult - is estranged from Charles. She makes it to the only safe place she knows - her grandmother's house; while there, she accidentally breaks a clay pot that Faye had made, which becomes a turning point in her life)
9. The Change in Me (still living at Faye's house, Sammy begins to once again use her artistic talents; she also calls Charles and re-establishes their relationship)
10. Start Right Here (Charles and Sammy rebuild their relationship while rehabilitating Faye's house, which - outside of Sammy's living there for a time - has remained dormant)
11. Home (set "one year later", with neither Charles nor Sammy planning to live in Faye's house, they turn it into a group home for single mothers)
