off the table
the weeknd Lyrics

Will I ever love the same way again? (Way again)
Will I find someone again, whom I love in the same way as I loved you?

Never thought you'd be so damn hard to replace
I never knew it would be so difficult to find someone who could replace you.

I swear I don't mean to be this way
I didn't intend to feel this way, it's just how I feel.

If I can't have you, is love completely off the table?
If I can't be with you, does that mean there's no chance for me to find love again?

Do I sit this one out and wait for the next life? (Next life)
Should I give up on love for this life and wait for the next one?

Am I too cold? Am I not nice?
Am I being distant and unpleasant to be around?

Might not be quite yet healed already
I may not have fully healed yet from our past relationship.

Should I be goin' too steady? (Too steady)
Is it too soon for me to commit to a new relationship?

Will you be there? (Will you be there?)
Will you still be there for me and support me, even if we're not together?

Can I still love you? (Can I, can I?)
Is it okay for me to still love you, even if we're not together?

I'll wait for you
I'll be patient and wait for you, even if it means I may never be with you again.

Even though it always feels like I'll be number two
Even though I may not be the first in your life, I'm still willing to wait and support you.

To someone you can't hold anymore
To someone who is no longer a part of your life.

If you let me in, I'm ready to give you what I couldn't before
If you give me the chance, I'm prepared to be a better partner than I was before.

'Cause I got you, girl
Because I'm here for you and I support you, girl.

Let me help you through it
Let me assist you in dealing with your problems and emotions.

You're tryna fill the void with a couple boys
You're attempting to replace the emptiness inside you with temporary relationships.

I can see right through it (you can see right through it)
I can tell that these temporary relationships aren't enough for you.

I can love you harder than I did before
I am willing to love you with more intensity than I have before.

Was in a dark place back then
I was emotionally struggling at the time of our past relationship.

I was toxic, then I was toxic to someone else
I was not in a good emotional state and it negatively affected both our relationship and others I was involved with.

I was haunted by the hills (oh yeah, yeah)
I was troubled by feelings of sadness and despair.

I couldn't give you my all, but I will
I wasn't able to give you my best in our past relationship, but I'm willing to try harder now.

If you let me in your arms
If you allow me to be close to you and comfort you.

If you let me in your heart
If you let me be a part of your life and emotions.

So can you hold me?
Will you comfort me and hold me?

If I let you, can you prove it to me? (I wanna know)
If I allow myself to be vulnerable with you, will you show me that you're trustworthy?

'Cause I need you to calm me down, babe
Because I require your presence to soothe me and provide emotional support.

Gotta get out of my head (oh, whoa)
I need to stop overthinking and move forward with our relationship, if it's possible.

Tryna be healed from this pain (oh)
I'm attempting to recover from the hurt and pain caused by our past relationship.

But it's gon' be hard to let someone else in again (whoa)
It will be difficult for me to trust another person in a relationship again.

Will you be there? (Will you be there? I'll still wait, I'll still wait for you, baby)
Will you still be there to support me, even if we can't be together?

Can I still? (oh, no-no, no)
Can I still love you and hold onto the feelings I have for you?

I swear, I swear
I promise, I promise.

I will wait for you whenever you need
I will be here for you, waiting whenever you need me.

Ooh, ooh
Expressing feelings of longing and anticipation.
