Composition



"Where Were You in the Morning?" is a hybrid of pop and R&B with an "atmospheric" production, featuring a "bluesy, soulful guitar" and handclaps. It also resembles Mendes's idol John Mayer's work. According to 'Billboard's Lars Brandle, the song is "Mendes' melancholy tale of a one-night stand who bailed on him the next morning without so much as a good-bye".
