The song was originally recorded by American country music artist Mark Wills for his fourth studio album Loving Every Minute (2001).
The song was later recorded by Reba McEntire as the second single from her 25th studio album Room to Breathe (2003) on December 22, 2003.
The song was released rather quickly due to the underperformance of the album's lead single "I'm Gonna Take That Mountain", which had only reached number 14 on the country charts.
The protagonist, a male patron at a diner, vents to the waitress serving him about his so far unfruitful love life.
Reba then greets another young man on the sidewalk, temporarily distracting him enough to run into a woman carrying groceries and possibly triggering another instant connection.
