Sam, in a tribute to his collaborator, Normani, also said, "This song is about me and Normani … I’ve been a fan of yours (Normani) for ages, and what we’ve produced is natural and organic.
I’m in a very different place now." The lyrics, as with many Sam Smith songs, is autobiographical. It’s simple, but what I was feeling at the time was as deep as I’ve ever felt. In an Instagram video clip posted by Sam the day before its release he said, "I want to share my feelings with you … this song, of all my songs, when I wrote it … was a healing moment. A snippet of the track was later teased by Sam the day before the track released. The post featured both artists at a photography shoot with Maggie West. Sam Smith first teased this song on his social media profiles on January 4, 2019.
