The song’s lyrics beautifully capture the desire for a love that mirrors the kindness and respect her father shows to her mother:

«I need a man who’s patient and kind
Gets out of the car and holds the door
I wanna slow dance in the living room like
We’re 18 at senior prom and grow
Old with someone who makes me feel young
I need a man who loves me like
My father loves my mom.»

As Cara performed, the sincerity of her emotions was unmistakable, leaving both the judges and the audience deeply moved. The song conveys the story of a young woman who has been inspired by the love and respect between her parents, and she hopes to one day find a love like theirs.
