Critical response

Chuck Taylor of Billboard wrote a positive review of the song complimenting Rimes' vocal performance, comparing the song to her lead single "Blue", calling the song just as "passionately delivered and altogether satisfy" and a "beautifully written traditional-drenched song".[2] Stephen Thomas Erlewine wrote, when reviewing the album, that the song hardly felt like a country song despite its use of steel guitars.[3]

Commercial performance

The song also peaked at number 52 on Canada's RPM Country Single chart.[4] In the US, the song peaked at number 41 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.[5]
