Songfacts®:

  • This sweeping power-waltz finds Cook singing of being made whole by love. The singer penned the song with Better Than Ezra's Kevin Griffin and also with Jamie Houston, whose credits include the High School Musical hit,"Breaking Free."
  • Cook discussed the song's meaning in an interview with Billboard magazine: "It's talking about basically giving yourself completely to another person and that moment when you and me become us. But I've seen it interpreted as little more of a sexual innuendo song, which I think is funny. But to me, I guess, it's a little more delicate than that."
