The song was released as the albums sixth and final by Blackground and Atlantic records on September 16, 1997.

The One I Gave My Heart to is a power ballad with more prominent pop influences, which are more apparent in the single version, in contrast to her previous works which are more leaning towards R&B and hip hop. The song is composed in the key of G major and follows the verse chorus form with Aaliyah doing improvisation at the ad-libbed last verse, making the climax of the song.
