Harry wrote this song for the film "Midnight Cowboy". The Director, John Schlesinger, had been using Harry's track "Everybody's Talkin'" as a temporary soundtrack to the opening titles. After commissioning Harry and several others (Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan) to write songs, Schlesinger opted to use "Everybody's Talkin'", which is now familiar for having been used in that movie.
