This is a song of blistering heartbreak, as Braxton sings to her former lover, begging him to return to her and undo all the pain he has caused. It was written by Diane Warren, who creates very emotional songs with big, hooky choruses and titles that tell a story in just a few words: "I Don't Want To Miss A Thing," "Why Did You Have To Be," "Save Up All Your Tears."
It won a Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 39th Annual Grammy Awards in 1997. In the United States, the song reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 while reaching the same position on the Hot Dance Club Songs and Adult Contemporary component charts. When Billboard celebrated their 40 years charting from 1958 to 1998, the song was declared as the most successful song by a solo artist in the Billboard Hot 100 history.
