It plays as the player is treated to a shot of the Diaz's family's home and surrounding neighborhood in Seattle, and is a soothing track which acts as a calm before the storm. It's a lighter version of "We Have to Go", which plays after [[spoiler: Esteban and Officer Matthews end up being killed and the Diaz brothers flee the scene.]]

During this scene, Daniel asks Sean if [[spoiler: his newfound telekinesis [[AfraidOfTheirOwnStrength makes him a monster]], to which Sean reassures him and tells him a bedtime story, which is a retelling of the events they've just gone through using [[AnimalMotifs animal analogies]].]] It's a hopeful, optimistic track with a very fitting name.

The song is soothing, which is ''much'' needed considering this is right after [[spoiler:Sean's unlawful kidnapping by racist gas station owner Hank Stamper and temporary separation from Daniel]].

It first appears when [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuTh_wHGOWg covered by Cassidy]] at the Christmas market, where it serves as a youthful contrast to the otherwise aging and dour population of Beaver Creek. It appears again as the closing song of the episode, serving as a hopeful transition out of Oregon as the Diaz brothers leave the strict rules and police confrontation of the episode behind for an uncertain future in California.

As per tradition for the ''Life Is Strange'' series, ''Life Is Strange 2'' contains a memorable, atmospheric soundtrack that compliments the theme of the game. The soundtrack of this game uses an indie folk theme not unlike [[VideoGame/LifeIsStrange the first game]], which sets the tone of a road trip that the Diaz brothers find themselves on. Jonathan Morali of Syd Matters returns from the first game to compose this game's score as well, and as expected, delivers a soundtrack which helps immerse the player into the story.
