This song is written in duple meter in a moderate slow tempo in key minor. The main instrument that creates the rhythm is a steady guitar that moves in arpeggio, what produces a sense of more active harmony than it really is.
The dynamic of the song is very soft. There is one melody only with accompaniment, what makes it homophonic.
There is only one vocal melody in this song. The voice doesn’t sound louder in the chorus. The verse and the chorus are made up of 3 lines and is heard only once during the whole song. However the phrase “I cry” singing in higher pitches is repeated many times (beginning at 1:37). At this moment the melody changes and gets faster, we can hear the drums and percussion providing by shaker in the background.
The harmony of this song is simple, but thanks to the second guitar that enters at 1:58 it seems more intense, it adds the richness to the melody.
At 2:39 the main guitar repeats one chord over and over, while the words create the melody.
The song is ending with ostinato, repeating the same chord. Beginning at 3:45 the piano enters accompanying the main melody, what creates a feeling of completeness.
