The story behind the song

Sixpence None the Richer is an American alternative rock band known for their melodic sound. This song appears on the album "City on a Hill: The Gathering." The band's name itself was inspired by a passage from C. S. Lewis's Mere Christianity, which speaks to the idea that acts of love, though they may not enrich one monetarily, hold immense value. This song, then, plays like an exploration of profound, perhaps unexpected, beauty found within life's imperfections.
