The worst time (free download)

about

Originally a b-side for the single "Come back to me". A track about breaking up and what it feels like. The first verse starts with a conversation, but you hear only one person speak. After that I tried to describe the silence and what happens in that silence.

lyrics

The worst time

What is it my love?
What do you mean by go?
No I don’t know

The room holds its breath
Her cat is playing dead
I’m not a part of this
I’m just a figurehead

Do I hear a phone, who is calling me?
Through the walls of this home, it’s calling
Mounting a memory of somewhere I’d rather be

So what is this thought
I was thinking of
About leaving now and giving up
The worst time is when you’ve almost won
or you’ve almost lost

Silence’s a brute
When you’re awestruck and mute
It tears at the heart and it pulls apart

Before I raise tears and come again,
Something ‘bout loss, care and pain
A smile, for the ricochet, I’m bruising anyway

So what is this thought
I was thinking of
About leaving now and giving up
The worst time is when you’ve almost won
or you’ve almost lost

What is it my love?

Solo is always in search of a "Timeless Melody". In the Netherlands, Solo's music has become a hallmark of pop songs with a golden glow. ... more
