  • Jonas Blue told The Metro newspaper that the lyrics give an insight into the type of lady he goes for. "It's about a confident, powerful woman who is fully content with her situation and saying to a guy that she loves it when he is naked," he explained. "It can mean naked as in, 'I see through to your soul, and the nakedness of you is what makes it special.' That's the type of woman I like to go for."
  • Jonas Blue penned the song with his regular co-writers Sam Romans and Ed Drewett. Their other collaborations include the hit singles "Mama," "Rise" and "Polaroid."
