The single was written  by Tim James, Phil O’Donnell and Mark Bright and is the first from Strait’s forthcoming album.  Strait once again collaborated with longtime producer, Tony Brown, on the music.

“The song has a very unusual melody and very cool phrasing, which I’ve always been drawn to,” shared Strait.

We’ve got an exclusive sneak peek at the lyrics:

July moonlight shines

Your pretty little head on my shoulder

Pull over on the side of the road

Oh my God, you’re something

Like nothing I’ve ever seen

If I’m asleep girl, let me dream

Baby fall into my kiss

It should just happen like this

Trust it so much that there’s no one else but us and

This moment that says it’s so right

‘Cause that’s all we have in this life

Drink up this love, baby, give it all we got tonight

Summer honeysuckle

Leaking through a rolled down window

We both know when that seat lays back

Anything can happen

So imagine it’ll never end

Just close your eyes and you can see that we are where we’re meant to be

Baby fall into my kiss

It should just happen like this

Trust it so much that there’s no one else but us and

This moment that says it’s so right

‘Cause that’s all we have in this life

Baby, drink up this love, give it all we got tonight

Give it all we got tonight

Baby fall into my kiss

It should just happen like this

Trust it so much that there’s no one else but us and

This moment that says it’s so right

That’s all we have in this life

Drink up this love, c’mon, give it all we got tonight

Give it all we got tonight
