Fabio Fiume of All Music Italia described the song as "a ballad" in which the two artists "play between vocals and together sing and reinforce a concept that we should all make our own, namely that "nothing is more fragile than a promise and I won't even make you one" perhaps we would avoid giving others disappointments, even unintentional ones". Mattia Marzi of Rockol observed that musically it presents "acoustic and sparse sounds" set to a "ternary rhythm", giving an overall "emotional" duet.Music video
