About this song
James Otto co-wrote the song with Jim Femino and D. Vincent Williams after Otto reached out to Femino while the two were grocery shopping in Nashville. Williams developed the melody, which inspired Otto to write the lyrics, and the trio presented a work tape to John Rich, who chose it as the lead single from Sunset Man. It was released in July 2007 and became Otto's first number-one hit on the Hot Country Songs chart in 2008, also topping Billboard's year-end 2008 Hot Country Songs chart. Country Universe's Kevin John Coyne gave it a B grade, calling it a smooth but not sappy romantic ballad.
