The story behind this song is that Mike Donehey(leader of the Tenth North Avenue band) was on a retreat one winter when he decided he wanted to talk to his future wife. She agreed, and, as the song says, he walked over a mile through the snow to go see her [BTW: guys should be taking notes on all this haha]. He reached their meeting place and they talked for a few hours when she told him that she had something she wanted to tell him, but she was scared he was going to view her differently if she did tell him. So he spent a while just holding her, letting her know that he would love her all the same, no matter what it was. So, after a while longer, tears falling from her face, she finally told Mike what was weighing down her heart. When he was telling this story at SoulFest, Mike said his reaction was, "That's it?". He wouldn't tell us what it was she told him, but he said that it just made him love her even more. 

     
     I just wish someday, whoever man God may have prepared for me, he's gonna sing this to me, saying he will love whatever my past and faults may I have made. It's just so beautiful when someone would love me for who I am and judge my imperfections and stupidities I did and will do in the future. It's beautiful to have someone you can really call your partner.
