According to The Script vocalist Danny O'Donoghue, the band's material is made up of complex thoughts condensed down to really simple songs. He explained that with this track, "we wanted to put a twist on a word: where's the good in goodbye, where's the fair in farewell... Then we tried to make that into a lyrical idea, which seemed to work really well."
