Songfacts®:

  • Alesha Dixon told the Observer Music Magazine October 2008 that this song is about, "when you're heart-wrenchingly in love and it consumes you. That feeling when you're in love where you can't think beyond being in love with that person. It can burn you. A lot of people have experienced that. And even though I don't have that feeling now, I once did."
  • The Grammy-winning songwriter Diane Warren wrote this dramatic ballad.
