Tessa Rae - All I Ever Wanted Was Us [Video]
A dreamy look back at a love you can miss without wanting it back
First loves often don’t last, so the idea behind “All I Ever Wanted Was Us” can seem naïve in hindsight. Still, the memories linger, and when Los Angeles singer-songwriter Tessa Rae revisits a story from her past, she is drawn back in. Her new song is dreamy and melancholic, an indulgence for a quiet moment when you are certain, looking back, that things turned out for the better.
Tessa says:
This song carries a deep longing to go back to the way things were. Every few years, I feel that ache again. But there's something powerful, and beautiful, in choosing to keep moving forward.
