"We used to be in love, we used to be inseparable.
Now it's a little awkward, it's like we've never met before.
It's almost like we're strangers, remember when we had it all?
We used to dream big, now it's just small talk."

Louise today premieres 'Small Talk', a brand new track from her upcoming album 'Heavy Love'.
