The song is about a man who falls in love with a woman that she can comfort him.
Rick Anderson of Allmusic, in a review of a later Montgomery compilation, called the song "unusually complex and soulful".[1] Walter Allread of Country Standard Time was mixed in his review of the Greatest Hits package, saying that Montgomery "aims at touchy-feely lovers, new parents[…] and the thousands who buy anything alluding to winged ones. Montgomery's overly forceful delivery (spitting out "sometimes we fight") reflects a tendency toward inch-deep interpretation".[2]
The music video was directed by Jim Shea.
