It was written by German singer-songwriter Kristina Bach and Swedish musician Figge Boström for her self-titled eighth studio album (2017), with production overseen by Andreas Herbig and Patrick Salmy along with co-producer Ricardo Munoz. An uplifting dance pop with heavy schlager elements, the song is built around a synthesizer instrumentation and piano riffs. Lyrically, it has its narrator comparing her feelings towards her lover with an aircraft flight.[1]
