High for This
by The Weeknd

You don't know
What's in store
But you know what you're here for
Close your eyes
Lay yourself beside me
Ohh
Hold tight
For this ride
We don't need no protection
Come on love
We don't need attention

Open your hand
Take a glass
Don't be scared
I'm right here
Even though
You don't roll
Trust me girl
You wanna be high for this

Take it off
You want it off
'Cause I know
What you're feeling
It's okay,
Girl I feel it too

Let it beat
Baby breathe
I swear I'm right here
We'll be good
I promise, we'll be so good
Ehh

Open your hand
Take a glass
Don't be scared
I'm right here
Even though
You don't roll
Trust me girl
You wanna be high for this

You wanna be high for this
You wanna be high for this
You wanna be high for this yeahh ey oh
You wanna be high for this
