The Boot described the song as "Ray focuses on enjoying the ride while it lasts and coming out of the relationship with a great story to tell. Summery and upbeat, the song makes for a perfect addition to his festival setlists." Ray said that he wanted a "loose feel" when recording the song, and said that the song's content of enjoying a relationship reminded him of his upbringing.[1] Ray said that he compared it to the feel of "Kiss You in the Morning", and that its content was "definitely one of those that I have lived".[2]
