The single was co-produced by Carey and Walter Afanasieff. The song is a cover and was written by Steve Perry and Jonathan Cain, two of the members of Journey, and originally performed by Journey. The epic ballad details the struggle of lovers who are trying to reconcile by starting anew with "open arms". Carey's career has crossed paths with Journey's: the band's drummer Steve Smith played drums on many of her earlier singles; and the its bassist for a short period in the mid-1980s, Randy Jackson, has worked with her for a long time.
