In an official announcement of the single’s release, the 44-year-old actress reminisced about growing up with her firstborn, Ryder, on Thursday. “Our babies leave us eventually and we have to watch them go take on the world. Some of us were so young that we were trying to figure out who we were simultaneously. That’s this song for me,” she penned in the caption. She marked it as a “love letter to parents waving goodbye” and the young moms doing their best. 


Kate Hudson once opened up about being a young mother

The Bride Wars star revealed that she was only 24 when her son, whom she also shares with ex-husband Chris Robinson, was born. Therefore, she and Ryder somewhat grew up together. ”I was so young when Ryder was born…I was almost a kid, too, so we were able to fall in love with growing up at the same time. And when you listen to the song and watch, it sweeps you up like someone's arms around you,” Hudson told People. 

In the music video, Hudson can be seen lip-syncing to the song with brief throwback footage of her time with baby Ryder. Fans flooded the comments with praises and cheers for her effort. “My mama heart” one user wrote while another noted, “Your voice!! Just sooo beautiful.” A mother of three, Hudson also shares 12-year-old son, Bingham with ex-partner Matt Bellamy and daughter Rani, 5, with fiancé and musician Danny Fujikawa. 


A movie star, Kate Hudson’s move towards music has been well-received by her fans. She had previously acknowledged that her self-written songs are extremely personal and feel “authentic” to her. The lyrics are deep reflections of her past and the actress is willing to share it with the world.
