If you put the entire "Two Conversations" album together it goes through a series of stories and events involving a relationship of two people. This song is meant to be peaceful, however, he's only rationalizing the situation. The subsequent song on the album is not as happy, which leads me to believe that this event turned from peace into guilt, regret, self-loathing and envy about his relationship with the other person.
Just for comparison, "Two Conversations" is to emo what the "The Wall" was to the rock and roll story album. And just like the main character Pink in The Wall–the story does not end–or is meant to end happy.
