Composition
The song is almost four minutes in length and is composed in the key of F-sharp major, set in the time signature of 4/4 common time with a moderate tempo. In the middle of the song, the key is changed to G-sharp major, then for a short amount of time goes back to F-sharp major and ends with G-sharp major after all. Grant's vocal range spans from F2♯ to D4♯. The song consists of three different verses that are interrupted by a bridge stop for a minute! baby i'm so glad you're mine. Lyrically, the song praises that special someone and expresses love that started since the day her heart was "put in motion". The chorus is the source of the album's title: and ever since the day you put my heart in motion, baby i realized that there's just no getting over you. It fades out with the words:
don't stop giving love
don't stop, no
(baby i'm so glad)
glad that you're mine
baby i'm glad

Famous quotes containing the word composition:
“Every thing in his composition was little; and he had all the weaknesses of a little mind, without any of the virtues, or even the vices, of a great one.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“Since body and soul are radically different from one another and belong to different worlds, the destruction of the body cannot mean the destruction of the soul, any more than a musical composition can be destroyed when the instrument is destroyed.”
—Oscar Cullman. Immortality of the Soul or Resurrection of the Dead? The Witness of the New Testament, ch. 1, Epworth Press (1958)
“If I don’t write to empty my mind, I go mad. As to that regular, uninterrupted love of writing ... I do not understand it. I feel it as a torture, which I must get rid of, but never as a pleasure. On the contrary, I think composition a great pain.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
