British producer Steve Mac, 45, also worked with the pair on her comeback song.
Rita said: "'Your Song' has everything I wanted to express: it's a song that's full of positivity and about feeling on top of the world, like everything is going right and that's where my life is right now.
"I love working with Ed and Steve; it was incredible to really bring this idea to life with some of the most talented songwriters of our time.

She said: "Of everything I've accomplished, I'm proudest of my new album. It's going to shock people. I think it'll be like, 'Wow, I didn't know she had those emotions.' Because I don't think they really know me ... They see pictures of me, they watch me on TV, but I try to keep my personal life as private as possible, and I don't post pictures of who I'm seeing. On this album, though, I say things I think people have been wanting to know. But it's done in a moving-forward way. It's a positive, uplifting album."
Last year Rita signed a new deal with Atlantic Records UK - a subsidiary of Warner Music Group - following her departure from Jay-Z's label Roc Nation and insisted that her second album will be deeply personal.
