The song is about a minor relationship Murs was in where he ended up feeling something for the other person. Murs commented: “Sadly she kept giving me the impression that she didn’t like me as much, and ultimately it didn’t work out, so that’s where the idea of me singing ‘Please Don’t Let Me Go’ came from.” The song was described as “a lovely summery reggae-tinged pop tune that bobs along in a thoroughly hummable and not un-Will Young-like fashion” and said that the music video “is just as quintessentially pleasant”. During the release, Murs was told not to get his hopes up for a number-one due to Katy Perry releasing “Teenage Dream” the same day.
