"...reaching and searching and longing for more.[1] The song first made a public appearance in April 2011 when Foreman performed an acoustic rendition live at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan.[2] It was later performed by the full band on May 18 in London, Ontario during a brief Canadian tour.[3] The official music video for the song debuted on 31 October 2011.[4] It was directed by Tom Aiello.
