The song explores the complexities of romantic relationships and offers the simple truth that "Love isn't something that we're in/It's something that we do."
Deborah Evans Price, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, saying that the song "has a powerful and poignant poetic tone that illuminates more about the nature of love and relationships in a few minutes than several books on the subject ever could." She goes on to call the song a "sweet, moving ballad." [1]
The music video was directed by Clint Black himself with the help of Timothy White.
