Background and composition
"Think of You" is a country pop song written in 2014 by Chris Young, Corey Crowder, and Josh Hoge. The midtempo ballad chronicles the break-up of a once-great couple, the awkwardness of adjusting to being on your own, and the untold fact between the two that they actually want to get back together. It was recorded by Young as a vocal duet with Cassadee Pope. Young chose Pope to serve as the female vocalist for the song after hearing her perform at the Stars and Guitars radio show hosted by WKIS 99.9 Kiss Country in Miami, FL. "I was just like, 'I've got to ask her,'" Young revealed to The Boot, "because I love her voice, and she's a phenomenal singer."

The song was first made available to digital retailers and streaming services on October 23, 2015 during the lead-up to the album's release. An accompanying lyric video premiered the same day. It was later selected as the album's second official single, being announced by the singers in a video posted to Young's official Facebook account on December 16, 2015. The song officially impacted country radio on January 25, 2016.
