Composition
The song consists of steel guitar[1] synths, and a steady backbeat.[2] Lyrically, Megan Moroney centers on her euphoria from falling in love. In the opening verse, she depicts her happiness as rendering the frustrations of everyday life insignificant.[2][3] Moroney continues to highlight that being beside her lover is the only thing that matters to her. The verses maintain a soft and delicate tone, while the chorus features layered instrumentation and a mid-tempo beat that mirrors her intense joy.[3]
Critical reception
Piper Westrom of Riff commented the song "plays with expectations", adding "It's her most straightforward love song to date, but it doesn't sacrifice personality for polish."[2]
