LYRICS (single version)

He waits on actors in the backstage
He knows exactly how to mix their drinks
Then melts away in velvet panels
a smiling backdrop for the dressed-up kings

He used to watch their painted faces
He'd buy cheap tickets for the gallery
Oh to be taken other places
Oh to forget whether or not to be

I should have lost your number
You should have missed my call
Sometimes it's better not to love
Than to 've lost it all

My lover's heart was always broken
My lover's mind was struggling through a fog
My lover loved the words unspoken
between the curtain and the epilogue

The choir sang its heavy warnings
The choir beckoned us to read the signs
Still it surprised us that last morning
We had forgotten all our lines

I should have lost your number
You should have missed my call
Sometimes it's better not to love
Than to 've lost it all

I should have lost your number
You should have missed my call
Sometimes it's better not to love
Than to 've lost it all

Lewin Amsterdam, Netherlands

LEWIN: the fresh musical leaf that has been turned by songwriter and musician Jara Holdert.

Lewin's voice "might remind you a bit of Joni Mitchell in the upper registers, while her musical temperament feels closer to the bardic stylings of Laura Marling. Lewin's sound is a refreshing mix of emotional authenticity and beautiful folk-pop songcraft.” (chillfiltr)
