Its lyrics, deepened by metaphor and a haunting, rhythmic refrain, explore the anguish of repeated rejection by a lover. In exploring unrequited love, Sayers chose a classic theme that recurs throughout the history of pop, folk and country music and that relates with many types of audiences. Her style of performance, which blends elements of classic folk singers such as Joan Baez or Joni Mitchell with the rhythms, power vocals and instrumental styles of contemporary pop singers, also appeals to a varied audience.
