Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Craving You. By Songfacts®.

Here, Thomas Rhett sings about the addictive nature of being in love: Never had something that I can't walk away from Girl, my self-control's so paralyzed When it comes to you, no, I ain't got no patience There's something about you that I just can't fight Rhett said that he can readily relate to the song's emotional picture of, "a guy and a girl really, really wanting to be with each other the moment they part ways, and are basically just obsessed with each other."

The song came out of a co-writing session that Rhett was supposed to be part of with Julian Bunetta, who's best-known for writing and production credits on One Direction and singer-songwriter Dave Barnes. However, the artist had to drop out after he fell sick. When Bunetta sent Rhett the demo the following day, he loved it right away. "I remember putting it in my truck for the first time, it was like, 'Dang, this is really, really good,'" Rhett said, adding that he loved the '80s uptempo vibe. "So I put it on hold for forever, and it was one of the ones that kind of stood the test of time. So we didn't cut the record until probably six or seven months later, and I just remember that one really coming to life in the studio."

This features the vocals of Maren Morris, who came into the studio and completed her parts for the song in just an hour. Rhett said that working with Morris was "amazing." "It was so nice to be able to work with - you know, there's a lot of females that are killing it right now, and Maren is definitely one of those girls whose voice is just undeniably powerful and soulful, and on top of that, [she's] just a really, really sweet person to work with," he said. "I think she just adds so much life and so much intensity to this song."
