• Metronomy end their Love Letters album with this plaintive psyche ballad, which finds Joe Mount singing of a caring partner packing his bags for a long trip full of "minibars," "foreign money" and "hotel pillows" as he reassures her, "it gets better."
  
  Mount told NME: "I quite liked the idea of doing a song that was fairly bare, and I built the lyrics around that idea as well. It's one of my favourite tracks on the record, because it's one of those things I never thought I would do."
• Mount told Artist Direct "Throughout the record, a lot of the ideas on the tracks come from me traveling around and being away from people. That song's maybe the more explicit track about being away."
  
  "When I wrote the guitar part, I imagined the track at the end might be a full band number," he added. "When I was recording that album, it was a bit of an analog studio. That makes you re-evaluate the songs. I had recorded the guitar parts, and I was like, 'I'm not sure if it needs anything else.' I'm happy for the vocal to be quite present. That's something I haven't really tried before."
