The song's narrator has lost a former lover. The good news is that he's better for the time that he spent with her, but the bad news is that she's gone. According to co-writer Paul Williams, the song came about when he and Vezner were talking about the death of one of Williams' old friends, Tom Jans and other people who influenced their lives.

It just seemed like what we should write about are the people who are no longer in our lives who had a positive effect on us. And it just poured out of us. The people that pass through our lives-we remember what they say to us, and we remember how they touch us. ~Paul Williams, 1998.[1]
