“I worship that woman.”īrooks and Yearwood have spent a lot of unexpected time together over the last year, due to the pandemic. “The first time I see her in the day, that’s when you know … We are telling each other we love each other every day,” Brooks gushed of his wife. But if we’re gonna pick a song that’s for both of us, I think ‘For the First Time I’m in Love for the Last Time.’ That’s kind of our life story, pretty much.”īrooks and Yearwood, who wrote “For the Last Time” together, might have known each other for much of their adult lives, but the Oklahoma native is still as smitten with Yearwood as ever, maybe more. That song struck me from the first time I heard it. Another one that fits Miss Yearwood for me is ‘How Do I Live,’ which is her song.
“For me, the one that fits me is ‘Stronger Than Me.’ That fits Miss Yearwood to me.
We’ve never sat and thought about a song,” Brooks said during his weekly Inside Studio G series on Facebook. The two have released plenty of singles, together and separately, over the years, but there are a few that Brooks says perfectly sum up their relationship, and his feelings for Yearwood. The two, who met while singing on a demo arranged by songwriter Kent Blazy, were friends for more than 15 years before they tied the knot in 2005. Garth Brooks has known his wife, Trisha Yearwood, since early in both of their careers.
