Context
James TW explained in a 1:12 minute YouTube video that he came up with the song during the time he was teaching some children to play musical instruments. He found out that the parents of one of the children he was teaching were getting divorced. The child was 11 years old at the time, and James thought that he would write a song showing how the parents would explain to their son in a way he would understand, and put in a positive way the separation of a child's parents. James wanted a song that his music student and other children passing through a similar situation could listen to, to give them hope and make them realise that "what happened in life was perhaps for the best".[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gAdLVp6bEMQ James TW YouTube: When You Love Someone Backstory]
