Songfacts®:

  • This sweet ballad was written by Ashley Gorley, Chris Tompkins and Rodney Clawson. Rhett explained: "The reason I recorded it to put on the record is because I like how the narrator is a hero. Who doesn't like a song with a hero? He comes in sweeping a girl up from a party after some jerk that she came with left her alone."
