Career
Warren told NPR's Scott Simon that she got into trouble, and ran away as a teen, but returned because she missed her cat. "Music saved me," she said. Warren also has said that her own mother asked her to give up her dream of a songwriting career and take a secretarial job. However, her father continued to believe in her and encouraged her. She wrote the song "Because You Loved Me" as a tribute to her father for his encouragement.
