Songfacts®:

  • Keifer Thompson explained the premise of the song during a Facebook chat. "When I was younger, I thought I would never get married; I didn't want anything to do with that. When you do meet that right person … it's like, 'Maybe being tied down to one person isn't that bad' … and pretty soon, it just consumes you."
  • The couple's first child, Rigney Cooper Thompson, was born on January 24, 2016. The pair took some of the home movies they'd filmed on their phones featuring their baby boy and uploaded them to iMovie to create the clip. "This song and every other song seems to have new meaning with Cooper being here," the duo told People. "It just makes sense."
