Interesting facts and trivia about You Make It Easy. By Songfacts®.

This slow, aching blues-tinged love ballad finds Jason Aldean professing how that special someone makes him feel. You're my sunshine in the darkest days My better half, my saving grace You make me who I wanna be You make it easy No doubt, Aldean had wife Brittany Kerr on his mind when recording this vulnerable lyric. The pair have been married since March 2015.

The soulful song was penned by Florida Georgia Line's Tyler Hubbard and Brian Kelley with singer-songwriter Morgan Wallen and producer Jordan Schmidt in 2017. Wallen told Taste of Country its genesis was Hubbard imagining what it must be like for his wife Hayley, with the difficulties of him being on the road all the time. "Tyler said that he had looked at Hayley and how he figured, you know, it was kind of hard with his job and everything that he has to do — how it might be hard to love me," he recalled. "He just told her that she makes it easy, so we all just kind of like, 'Damn, well that sounds like a song right there, man, why don't we just write that?' And so we did. It was just a pretty natural feeling song, just pretty straight forward. The idea came from Tyler and Hayley Hubbard."

Wallen admitted he was tempted to cut the track himself. "I wanted to sing it too, it was just kind of one of those songs that everybody was like, 'Well, this is awesome,'" he said "And they [FGL] weren't really cutting at the time; I was obviously looking for songs, but Jason Aldean hears a song and he loves it - and especially at the time, for me, it was just something that I was willing to let go of for him."
