It was released in February 2008 as the second single from their eponymous debut album (2007). The band also produced a music video for the song.

The video was directed by Alan Ferguson. It portrays lead singer Travis Clark as Romeo "tossing rocks" at Juliet's window. Juliet's parents do not approve of Juliet's relationship with Clark, and, therefore, ordered Juliet to stay away from him. The video ends with Juliet sneaking out to see Clark perform at a house party and ultimately leaving with him. Juliet is played by Addison Timlin. [5]
