The song was originally written for the 1996 film The Adventures of Pinocchio , and was written from the point of view of Geppetto after Pinocchio leaves him. The song however was rejected by the film's producers.

Eventually, the song was released on her next album Mixed Emotions , and was chosen as the first single. The song was sent to radios as a promotional single when the album was released in May 1999. A commercial release of the single was planned for the end of July, however the label refused to give it a full release, possibly due to the underperformance of the album on the UK charts and all promotion was halted soon afterwards.
