Pop ballad with a steady mid-tempo pulse, warm piano arpeggios and restrained drums; verse stays intimate with sparse piano and soft bass, pre-chorus lifts with layered harmonies and a filtered synth swell, chorus opens with wide strings and a singable top-line. Lead vocal is close-mic and tender with doubled chorus lines, small delay throws on key words, and a few breathy ad-libs. Ear candy includes reversed piano swells, finger snaps into the pre-chorus, and a final lift with glassy chimes. Bright, polished, emotional mix with cinematic width.
