Songfacts®:

  • In preparing to record their tenth studio album, Miracle, Third Day knew they wanted to try something a little different. Brendan O'Brien (Bruce Springsteen, Pearl Jam, The Killers, Train) was at the top of the list of producers they wanted to take with them on the journey. "They came to me and said, 'We're looking to make music that appeals to our fans and our spiritual side, but we want to break out a little bit and invite everyone in," said O'Brien. "When I hear this music…it's very inviting. It brings people in. It's saying, 'Come along and hear what we have to say.' It really moves me."

    O'Brien added that this mid tempo love song, "might be one of the best songs I have ever worked on. I'm super proud of it."
