Over a piano-driven instrumental,[3][4] the artists each describe inevitabilities of life before singing "And I'm gonna love you".[2][4] They join their voices in the chorus, singing together: "So good that it almost hurts / Steady and true as a Bible verse / My heart skips just thinkin' of you / Go on and bet it all, baby, we can't lose".[2][3][4][5] In addition, they express their unwavering support and love for each other when facing obstacles and challenges. An electric guitar solo is played toward the end of the track.[4]
