What is the meaning behind “It Never Went Away”?
In a video about the song, Batiste revealed that he wanted the song to be “giving the people the real unvarnished truth.” The Academy Award-winning songwriter also added that it involves “seeing the most vulnerable moments of your life”
Batiste wrote lullabies for Suleika when she was in the hospital, but the idea came to him while he was asleep. “I wanted [the song] to feel tied to the film as your spirit is to your body. It never went away, it’s like love, it never goes away. It’s infinity, it’s forever. That’s what love is.”
