Interesting facts and trivia about Destination. By Songfacts®.

A popular track from Nickel Creek's fourth album, "Destination" finds Sara Watkins singing about moving on from a bad relationship: I've gotta make a destination find where I'll be loved This time I've got no hesitation and I'll be movin' on

In our interview with Sara Watkins, who wrote the song with her bandmates Chris Thile and Sean Watkins (her brother), she said: "That song, musically, was always coming from a place of dissatisfaction of where you are, just realizing that you need to be somewhere else and not knowing how to get there. I started it from a perspective of feeling like I was endlessly on tour and not knowing how to have a functional life. Different points in that lyric were more about relationships that my friends were going through, hard times. But eventually I found my own angle into it, a relationship that I had that needed to... well, it was just time to move on, and the frustration of feeling like you might have wasted time somehow before moving on."
