On the song, the English singer-songwriter continues with his usual themes of sex. It is dedicated to American model Gigi Hadid. Using innuendos, he encourages her to show her true self and not having to hide anything since nobody else is there, which might also explain the album’s title.
The official music video for the song premiered only twelve hours after it, on January 8, 2021.

Zayn Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been waiting all night to get closer
And you already know I got it for ya
You know the vibes, know the vibes
Put it on ya
If we're moving too fast, we can slow up
Baby, this far from mediocre
You know the vibes, know the vibes
You and me, here in this room
Imagining things we could do
Won't tell no lies, no lies to you
I need you here, I need you here
Mind running wild, we touching slow
Just say the word, I'm ready to go
Anticipation plays after four

Baby, I'ma get you right now, baby yeah
When I touch you tell me how it feels
Trust me, I'ma make it feel surreal
Baby, mine you're mine

Zayn you don’t know how much you mean to me ..
You’re the reason I smiled even at my saddest days .
Every time I become depressed.
I always listen to your song or I watch videos related to you .
Seeing you makes me calm and happy.
You’re like a painkiller to me .
Because of you I’m happy even when I’m sad .
I love you Zayn ❤.
I’ll forever will be your diehard fan .
You’re like a family to me …
And please don’t forget to be happy no matter what .
Love you my king 🥹🖤❤️…

@- hi
@walkefy
It's been a year now and this song still gives me "vibez"
@huseyintoprak366
Ben bir Türk dinleyicisi olarak merak ettim "vibez" ne anlama geliyor, kelime anlamını araştırmalarıma rağmen bulamadım
@avgenjoyer
@Hüseyin Toprak⁰¹ means to levitate on a song or to feel and enjoy a particular thing
@qwertyTRiG
@Hüseyin Toprak⁰¹ It's a "cool" spelling of "vibes", short for "vibrations".
