Songfacts®:

  • Cole Swindell closes his You Should Be Here album with this acoustic country ballad. The song was penned by Brad Tursi of Old Dominion and Andrew Dorff and Swindell admitted it was the first time he'd heard an outsider song and thought the writers were in his head. "It was weird... like, 'Dang, did they write this about me?'"

    He added: "'Remember Boys' is one I didn't write, but I thought it was perfect for the last track on the album, because it's kind of where I am in life, I feel like."
