About Start Again

"Start Again" is the second solo single by the Australian singer Conrad Sewell. It was released on 10 March 2015 and taken from his first extended play, All I Know. The song was co-written by Sewell and Jamie Hartman. It laments the loss of a lover and the fervent hope for a fresh start. It was released in the United States and Australia on 10 March 2015. The song was almost given to Australian singer Kylie Minogue, but Sewell decided that "it didn't sound like a Kylie song" and continued with his own version of the composition. In an interview on Joy 94.9, Sewell said that he recorded the track in one take and was driven by "pure emotion" that just "came easily". Sewell said, "I need to be singing soulful music like this!"

Home time, I'm getting ready for a long night
They say you never miss it 'til it's gone
Well you're gone and I wish I'd done it better
Mostly I miss having you close to me
The only one who really ever knows me
And I'm sorry, I promise I'll do better, better

There's a hole in the middle of my heart again
Can we start again, can we start again
There's a hole in the middle and it never mends
It never mends, can we start again

Some nights, I kid myself I treated you right
Lying to myself, I didn't know
If I'm honest, I could've done it better
You said we had it pretty much perfect
And then you told me that you loved me
But you're sorry, you needed something better, better

There's a hole in the middle of my heart again
Can we start again, can we start again
There's a hole in the middle and it never mends
It never mends, can we start again

So I guess I'm gonna let you go
But you get to keep a little bit of my soul
So I guess I'm gonna write you out
But I don't think I can do it to me right now
Let's pretend that time heals all

There's a hole in the middle of my heart again
But I'm not afraid to start, again
Start again, I'm gonna start again
There's a hole in the middle and it never mends
It never mends
But I've gotta try to start again
