A heartbreak song that delivers deep healing and gently stays beside your heart.

Released in May 2023, Lewis Capaldi’s piece is a bittersweet yet beautiful track that looks back on lost love with compassion and grace.

His uniquely textured voice and profound emotional expression breathe through the performance, and—just as the distance between Glasgow and LA suggests—it carries a quiet wish for someone’s happiness from afar, after love has ended.

The more you listen, the more its melancholy seeps in, yet you can still feel the strength to face forward.

Including its moving music video, it’s a song to turn to when you want something to comfort a tired heart.
