The Weeknd – Best Friends (Audio, Lyrics)

The Weeknd Best Friends

Best Friends sees Abel telling his friend who he’s obviously having a sexual relationship with not to get too carried away and fall in love with him. Abel croons that he’s been part of a toxic love before, and he still hasn’t healed from it to handle love. He tells her to focus on the friendship so she wouldn’t get hurt.

Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh
Hey
Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]
Oh, what we got
Baby, what we got is secure
Been a part of toxic love
It tore us apart
Things you want, I’m not lookin’ for
You’re my best friend now
You’re my best friend now
Oh, I don’t want to be responsible
For your heart if we fall
‘Cause I’ll get clumsy and tear it apart
I love you so, but we can’t get close
You’re my best friend now
You’re my best friend now

[Verse]
Oh, I love it when we climax (Climax)
And I would never burn you
I could never hurt you
If we do it like that
Don’t try to take it further
Focus on the friendship
Get a little sidetracked
Catchin’ little feelings
Thought we had arrangements
Thought you weren’t like that
Yeah (Uh-uh), I thought you weren’t like that

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, friends no more
Sex as friends no more
You don’t wanna have sex as friends no more
Friends no more
Ooh, friends no more, uh
Sex as friends no more
You don’t wanna have sex as friends no more
Oh

[Chorus]
Oh, what we got (Oh yeah)
Baby, what we got is secure
Been a part of toxic love
It tore us apart (Oh yeah)
Things you want, I’m not lookin’ for (I’m not searchin’)
You’re my best friend now (Oh, baby)
You’re my best friend now
Oh, I don’t want to be responsible
For your heart if we fall (Oh no)
‘Cause I’ll get clumsy and tear it apart
I love you so (Oh yeah), but we can’t get close
You’re my best friend now (Best friend now)
You’re my best friend now (Best friend now)
