The song was written by Marc Anthony and Walter Afanasieff (known for his work with Mariah Carey and Celine Dion). It features a lush, orchestral arrangement typical of early 2000s adult contemporary ballads.

"As I look into your eyes, I see all the reasons why my life's worth a thousand skies."

The lyrics are a direct message of unconditional love and devotion from a father to his child.
