Songfacts®:

  • Bowersox and musician Brian Walker were married on October 10, 2010, and on this love song, Crystal happily reflects that life is good right now.
  • Bowersox explained to USA Today that she personalized the lyrics to an already existing song by David Ryan Harris and Alexandra Tamposi. "That song was actually handed to me by the label," she said. "I heard the demo, and I loved the lyrics. It actually spoke to me about where I am in life. Lonely doesn't come around anymore: I've got my son and my husband, and I'm able to do what I love for a living. That song kind of touched me and made it on the album."
