Penned by Campbell and one of the album’s producers, Julian Raymond, the emotional ballad was written about the unbreakable bond Campbell shared with his wife, Kim, crediting her for completing him. The “really cool project” (Whiskey Riff)  which “feels both familiar and fresh at the same time” (Forbes) will be released April 19.

“Words cannot express how much I enjoyed blending my voice with Glen's on this incredibly touching love song. Hard to sing when you’re crying,” said King.

King first met Campbell in New York in the early '60s when she, the Everly Brothers’ Phil Everly and Campbell formed the short-lived novelty trio, the Keestone Family Singers, who released one single in 1962.
