But one of the most touching songs on Paper Walls is “Dear Bobbie,” a wistful song about the 58-year relationship between Key’s grandparents that features recordings of his 87-year-old grandfather reading a love letter to his wife. “The words I wrote to go with it seem to pale in comparison to hearing him speak. It’s coming from a man who has been in World War II, traveled the world, and seen and done it all. He’s been married and in love with the same woman for 58 years, and you can hear it in his voice,” says Key.
The personal investment Key put into “Dear Bobbie” is emblematic of the rest of Paper Walls. Call it a rebirth, a reinvention or even an epiphany, there’s no question that the album is a genuine expression of renewal and hope. “At the end of the day, there’s a collaborative energy again, that feeling of what Yellowcard was in the beginning when we didn’t have the distance that success created,” Key says. “We feel like we’re the luckiest guys in the world to still be able to do this, and I think that shows.”
