To me, this song is about ending a relationship due to the distance. 5 Seconds of Summer wrote this song by themselves so it's most likely about one of their relationships when they left for tour in the first place.
For a while we pretended
That we never had to end it
But we knew we'd have to say goodbye
They both knew that the boy had to leave for tour sooner or later so he could fulfill his dream. They tried not to think about this but in the back of their mind they always knew it was going to happen and that they had to end their relationship.
You were crying at the airport
When they finally closed the plane door
I could barely hold it all inside
Obviously, both of them are effected equally by the break up and it's heartbreaking for them.
Torn in two
And I know I shouldn't tell you
But I just can't stop thinking of you
Wherever you are
You
Wherever you are
Every night I almost call you
Just to say it always will be you
Wherever you ar
The boy is torn in two because on the one hand, it's his chance to finally live his dream and do what he always dreamt of, but on the other hand he has to leave his girlfriend behind and breaks not just her heart, but his own.
He now is away seeing the world and fulfilling his dream, but nevertheless he cannot stop thinking about his former girlfriend. He misses her and still loves her because for him, there will be no other girl than her, she will always be the one.
I could fly a thousand oceans
But there's nothing that compares to
What we had and so I walk alone
No matter where he is in this world, he compares every girl he meets to his ex-girlfriend, but no one is as good as she was. She still is the best thing that has ever happened to him and he thinks he will never feel the way he did with her again. This is the reason why he doesn't have a new girlfriend yet but is still single.
I wish I didn't have to be gone
Maybe you've already moved on
But the truth is I don't want to know
He still wishes that he didn't have to leave so he could be with her as he is still thinking about her. He isn't sure whether she still feels the same way for him or whether she moved one, but he doesn't even want to know because if she moved on, his heart would break even further knowing that she is happy without him while he still suffers from the break up.
You can say we'll be together someday
But nothing lasts forever
Nothing stays the same
So why can't I stop feeling this way?
I'm not entirely sure about this part, but in the essentials he wonders why he still loves his ex-girlfriend when they say that nothing lasts forever. But if nothing lasts forever, why does his love for her still lasts to this day?
So this song kinda tells the story of a young couple breaking up because he has to leave. While he is happy to leave because he get's to do everything he ever dreamt of he is heartbroken because he had to break up with his girlfriend and leave her behind. He never stops thinking about her or loving her, no matter where they are in this world, and he doesn't want another girlfriend because she will always be the one for him.

@Vorstadtblues I think it's probably about Luke and Aleisha
