This song is a modern day Jazz type song. The song talks about how she is so in love with this guy and that she will do anything in her power to be with him and or to be near him. She also sings about how she is only human and that she can only do the possible things but she will move heaven and earth for him as he continually breaks her heart. This shows exactly what Gatsby is going through. He loves Daisy so much that he moved across from her and loved her for all those years, yet she breaks his heart by marrying Tom and loving him. This gives the mood of hopeful but it also has a mood of sad and heartbreak as the person she is talking about is breaking her heart.

This song resembles a modern day waltz just like "Three O'clock in the Morning". This song is about a guy who is in love with this girl that left him for another guy. The main point of the song is that he will always love her no matter what and that his love for her has always and will always be true and he will always be there for her. This is the exact same situation that Gatsby is in. Daisy is with Tom and he will always love her and be there for her. This sets a longing for love type mood and also sets a sad mood as the main person of this song is loving a person that is taken.
