She doesn’t miss.
Morgan Wade is gearing up to release her third studio album Obsessed in August, and she announced on Instagram this afternoon that “Moth to a Flame” will be out everywhere this Friday, June 21st.
The beautifully honest song finds her relishing in the fact that she finally found a significant other who chooses to stay every day, as opposed to her usual heartbreak over the end of a relationship.
Per the usual, it features some gorgeous poetry and lyricism, where Morgan notes that it’s such a joy to finally be able to write about “the one that chose to stay” and not “the ones that got away.”
I just love that play on words:
“Turn down the music,
All I wanna hear is you say my name,
I swore off the hard stuff,
But you sent a fire through my veins,
And I wrote all the songs about the ones,
That got away,
Thank God I could finally write the song about the one,
That chose to stay”
So far, we’ve heard “2AM in London,” “Halloween” and “Time to Love, Time to Kill” from the Obsessed tracklist, but this might already be my favorite:
“I didn’t want to wait for my new album on August 16th to release this song – so I’m dropping it early! ‘Moth To A Flame’ is available this Friday.”
Morgan previously played a gorgeous acoustic version during an acoustic set at the Country Music Hall of Fame as part of their Live! At The Hall series a little while back:
Obsessed is a solo-written, 14-track album that was produced by Morgan’s touring guitarist Clint Wells, and it’s due out everywhere on August 16th.
