it'll all work out eventually /better off with him than here with me

A song is not simply words set to a tune. It reaches one in a sincerer fashion, skipping pass the structured banks of the brain that have been educated and stored with specific meanings and intent, straight to your heart that is pure and simply, you.And sometimes when the two meet perfectly, lyrics and music, something more than a song is created. Saying much more than words themselves ever could, more striking and heartfelt than a beautiful melody ever conveyed, you have a piece like this that does not come along very often.

This unassuming little gem slipped into my hands from a listen of Elizabethtown's soundtrack ( carap I still have not watched it yet), and though I was never really that big a fan of dylaneque folksy songwriting something in here grabbed me all the way from the initial tingling on strings ( are those mandolins? I cant figure them out) right to the lingering end, which goes off not because the song is done but because the singer has walked past you with a rough smile and starts to disapper into the distance, bringing his song into the sunset. He may have been broken once, but it is no longer a burden for he is done with the past he sings of, and he goes along his way.

Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers - It'll All Work Out

A link to Tom Petty's biography on allmusic. Salute when you reach the bit about him withholding an album from his record company in protest against their too high intended price listing of his release. Plus his words.

Still I think of her when the sun goes down
It never goes away, but it all works out

This one is for you.
