With its cool, slightly detached mid-tempo R&B vibe and romantic theme, “sHe” fits right in with the rest of ZAYN’s 2016 solo debut, "Mind of Mine".
She
Zayn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She always knows where the crowd's at
She puts her mouth round the cigarette
I put it out 'cause she likes that
She always dances when it's raining
"Aye, when's it starting baby?"
She looks at me like she's waiting
Making time go slow when they show her the table
Bright lights, but she's fading
Feels right, she's crazy
Bright lights, but she's fading
Feels right, she's crazy
She wants somebody to love
To hold her
She wants somebody to love
In the right way
She wants somebody to love
To kiss her
She wants somebody to love
In the right way
She's crying out that she loves me
Holding my hands so I won't leave
'Cause baby don't wanna be lonely
She says "I just want you to hold me"
Bright lights, but she's fading
Feels right, she's crazy
Bright lights, but she's fading
Feels right, she's crazy
She wants somebody to love
To hold her
She wants somebody to love
In the right way
She wants somebody to love
To kiss her
She wants somebody to love
In the right way
In the right way
In the right way
In the right way, in the, in the right way
In the wrong way, in the right way
In the right way, in the, in the right way
In the wrong way, in the right way
In the wrong way, in the, in the right way
In the wrong way, in the right way
In the right way, in the, in the right way
In the wrong way
She wants somebody to love
To hold her
She wants somebody to love
In the right way
She wants somebody to love
To hold her
She wants somebody to love
In the right way
She wants somebody to love
To kiss her
She wants somebody to love
In the right way
Zayn's "She" is a love song with a melancholic and nostalgic tone, reflecting on the transient nature of life and love. The lyrics describe a woman who puts on a nightcap and goes out to be part of the crowd. She smokes a cigarette and dances when it's raining. Despite the bright lights, she's fading, suggesting that she's struggling to hold onto something.
The chorus expresses the woman's desire for someone to love her and hold her in the right way. She's crying out for someone to hold her, and the singer is there for her. The line "bright lights, but she's fading" seems to suggest that even though she's out in the world with others and appearing to have a good time, she's still feeling empty and desperately seeks to be loved authentically.
Overall, "She" is a poignant song that captures the struggles of modern romantics that crave to be wanted and loved, and also the frustration and the sense of loss that often comes from trying to find genuine connection in the world.
