The real reason Guy Garvey wrote the song is very beautiful, so I shall share it with everyone: "I almost feel guilty for writing this song. It’s based on a withdrawing couple I saw in a bar. She was banging a coin on the bar really loudly and he came up behind her and put his arms round her, staying her hand and she burst into tears. There was a tragic magic to the situation that would have affected anyone who witnessed it."
