The song features banjo and electric guitar, and its lyrical theme is a love ballad to his wife, Katelynn. Brown performed the song on January 14, 2019 on 'Good Morning America'. He also filmed a wedding video including the song.

Music video
Directed by Reid Long, the video features a young boy (played by 'This is Us's Lonnie Chavis, who on the show plays 8-year old Randall). It begins with him waking up in the dead of night noticing his mom (a physician assistant) showing his grandmother the bills. The next day seems to go as normal for the boy (his mom packs him star-shaped sandwiches for lunch, he gets on the school bus only to get picked on by two other kids, he meets his friend and shares his lunch with her) but takes a drastic turn when older boys try to steal his backpack and beat him up. A policewoman (his grandma) comes by and picks him up, buys him an icee, then takes him home. That night, he and his sister devise a plan to surprise their mother. They decorate the living room into a starry night. Their mom come home from work and is very shocked and blessed that her kids did so.
Between these scenes, shots of Brown performing the song while sitting on the boy's living room couch are interspersed.
