Zach Bryan told Today's Country Radio with Kelleigh Bannen that he wrote the song "in a cabin in Wisconsin".[4] Bryan released two versions of the song: the original single version, and an alternate mix which features just his vocals and piano. He had first released snippets of the song via social media in December 2021.[5]

Rolling Stone editors described the song as "a heartbreaking single full of the genre's signature soul, stripped down to only an acoustic guitar and a harmonica" and having "love letter lyrics".[6] BroadwayWorld describes the song as "Bryan laying himself bare, willing himself to believe there's a chance of survival for an all-but-doomed relationship".[7] Bryan also released a music video for the song containing "crowd sourced footage shot by fans" that "captures the raw and unfiltered emotion" of the song experience.[7]
