A letra foi inspirada no livro *Creative Visualization*, de Shakti Gawain, que auxiliou Des'ree a superar a melancolia de um rompimento amoroso doloroso.
O clipe utilizou uma técnica complexa que compôs quatro imagens simultâneas da cantora em um único frame para representar diferentes aspectos de sua personalidade.
Embora as filmagens do videoclipe tenham sido realizadas em cores, todas as tonalidades foram removidas durante um processo de pós-produção que durou uma semana.
A faixa demorou quase três meses para escalar a parada Billboard Hot 100, começando na 90ª posição e eventualmentre atingindo o pico na 5ª posição em março de 1995.
Uma versão remixada da música, lançada em 1999, tornou-se número 1 na Espanha por duas semanas consecutivas.
A música foi reeditada no Reino Unido em 1999 por causa de seu uso na campanha publicitária do Ford Focus, alcançando então sua posição mais alta na parada britânica (#10).
