Briana Marela tells the story behind the song to Songs for Whoever:

[Verse 1]
I can't follow your rhythm, we're different
When it seems we're together
I'm falling out of time, Oh oh oh, oh oh
I dropped the beat and cannot tell if you're mine
(Oh, oh, oh)
When I'm feeling helpless, you'll understand
(Like no one else would ever care)
You'll reach out and just take my hand
(And hold me close whenever there)
[Chorus]
You take care of me like I'm the only one
You take care of me like I'm the only one
You take care of me like I'm someone that matters
That matters, matters, matters
[Verse 2]
Now you know me so well, it's special
That I can be myself
So you don't have to hide, Oh oh oh, oh oh
Your flaws are perfect to me, wrap me up in your smile
(Oh, oh, oh)
When I'm feeling helpless, you'll understand
(Like no one else would ever care)
You'll reach out and just take my hand
(And hold me close whenever there)
[Chorus]
You take care of me like I'm the only one
You take care of me like I'm the only one
You take care of me like I'm someone that matters
That matters, matters, matters
That matters, That matters, matters, matters
That matters, matters, matters, matters
That matters, That matters, matters, matters
That matters, That matters, matters
