De Australische singer-songwriter Dean Lewis werd in 1987 geboren in Sydney. In 2016 tekende hij een platencontract bij Island Records en later dat jaar verscheen zijn eerste single Waves. In eigen land bereikte deze single de 12e plaats. Bovendien werd Waves genomineerd in vier categorieën tijdens de ARIA Music Awards van 2017. Dean Lewis wist zijn nominaties echter niet te verzilveren.

In maart 2021 bracht hij de single Falling Up uit en in de herfst van 2021 de single Looks Like Me. De single Hurtless werd de opvolger in april 2022. Eind augustus 2022 laat hij van zich horen met de single How Do I Say Goodbye.

Songtekst

I look up from the ground
To see your sad and teary eyes
You look away from me
And I see there's something
You're trying to hide and I
Reach for your hand, but it's cold
You pull away again and I wonder
What's on your mind

And then you say to me
You made a dumb mistake
You start to tremble
And your voice begins to break
You say the cigarettes on the counter
Weren't your friend's, they were my mate's
And I feel the colour draining from my face
And my friend said ...

I know you love her, but it's over, mate
It doesn't matter, put the phone away
It's never easy to walk away
Let her go
It'll be alright

So I asked to look back
At all the messages you'd sent
And I know it wasn't right
But it was fucking with my head
And everything deleted
Like the past, it was gone
And when I touched your face
I can tell you're moving on

But it's not the fact
That you kissed him yesterday
It's the feeling of betrayal
That I just can't seem to shake
And everything I know tells me
That I should walk away
But I just want to stay
And my friend said ...

I know you love her, but it's over, mate
It doesn't matter, put the phone away
It's never easy to walk away
Let her go
It'll be okay

It's gonna hurt for a bit of time
So bottoms up, let's forget tonight
You'll find another and you'll be just fine
Let her go

Nothing heals
The past like time
And they can't steal
The love you're born to find

But nothing heals
The past like time
And they can't steal
The love you're born to find

I know you love her, but it's over, mate
It doesn't matter, put the phone away
It's never easy to walk away
Let her go
It'll be okay

It's gonna hurt for a bit of time
So bottoms up, let's forget tonight
You'll find another and you'll be just fine
Let her go
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
It'll be alright
