According to the sheet music published by Universal Music, it is set in a tempo of 60 beats per minute. It is written in the key of F major, and its verses follow the chord progression B♭mai—F. The song begins with a gentle piano melody,〔 transitioning into Ellis-Bextor's sung section. During the verses of the song, she sings in a low register, reaching her lowest note of F; conversely, in the chorus, her voice reaches C and trembles. Throughout the song, her vocals are restrained and incorporate the melisma technique. The bridge of the song features "choral harmonies".

According to Ludovic Hunter-Tilney from ''Financial Times'', the track discusses "the joys of growing old with one's spouse".〔
