[Intro]
Baby
Baby
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up

[Verse 1]
Please, mercy me
Let me fall out of love, before you fuck her
I beg you
I'll give you all my pills
I'll give you all that I need, baby
I see that she is beautiful
The most beautiful by far
I see that she makes you feel good 'bout who you are
But you see how much I need you?
You see how much I care?
You see how much I care?
You see how much I care?

[Verse 2: The Weeknd]
I've been spendin' all my time, livin' for the thrill
All this money that I've thrown
All this liquor that I've spilled
I deserve this
I deserve your body on my mattress
So when you ask me what I do
All I do is hurt myself
Inspiration is all I know
Inspiration is all I have
So I deserve this
I deserve your body on my mattress

[Verse 3]
What do I do now that you're gone?
What do I do when I'm alone?
You've been running in my head
What do I do when I need sex?
You're my everything
You're my heart
You're my everything
You're my heart

[Chorus: The Weeknd]
Ooh, I thought I told you, a long time ago
Don't you fall in love
Don't make me make you fall in love
Don't make me make you fall in love with a nigga like me
Don't you fall in love with a nigga like me
Don't you fall in love with a nigga like me
Don't you fall in love with a nigga like me
Don't you fall in love with a nigga like me
Don't you fall in love with a nigga like me
Don't you fall in love with a nigga like me
Like me

Abel Makkonen Tesfaye (born February 16, 1990 in Scarborough, Ontario), popularly known as The Weeknd, is an R&B/pop/hip-hop singer-songwriter and record producer from Toronto, Canada. He has been referred to as the songbird of his generation and the best musical talent since Michael Jackson throughout his career.

The Weeknd gained widespread critical acclaim for his three mixtapes, House of Balloons, Thursday, and Echoes of Silence, which he later compiled to make a remastered, three-disc album titled Trilogy after signing his record deal with Republic. In 2013, he released Kiss Land, which was considered to be his debut studio album.

In 2014, he dropped “Often,” a remix of Beyonce’s “Drunk In Love,” and “King of the Fall.” The Weeknd released two songs in collaboration with the film Fifty Shades of Grey, with “Earned It” becoming his solo breakout hit.
