[Verse 1]
Can your heart be mine in search?
'Cause I have no time to help you find all the words
Melodies and memories, stories that sound absurd
I will tell no lies

[Pre-Chorus]
As long as you look me in the eyes
I'll go wherever you are, I'll follow behind

[Chorus]
Heard about all the things you've done
And all the wars that you've been in
Heard about all the love you lost
It was over before it began
Heard about all the miles you've gone
Just to start again
Heard about all that you've been through
And it sounds like you need a friend, a friend

[Verse 2]
Please don't wait, I'm not coming home tonight
I wanna love you but I can't

[Pre-Chorus]
As long as you look me in the eyes
I'll go wherever you are, I'll follow behind

[Chorus]
Heard about all the things you've done
And all the wars that you've been in
Heard about all the love you lost
It was over before it began
Heard about all the miles you've gone
Just to start again
Heard about all that you've been through
And it sounds like you need a friend, a friend

[Bridge]
I never doubted myself, but I doubted you
I'm tired of looking at myself in my rear view

[Chorus]
Heard about all the things you've done
And all the wars that you've been in
Heard about all the love you lost
It was over before it began
Heard about all the miles you've gone
Just to start again
Heard about all the that you've been through
And it sounds like you need a friend, a friend

Zayn Malik

Zain Javadd “Zayn” Malik is an English/Pakistani singer and songwriter, and a former member of the boy band One Direction.

In 2010, Malik auditioned for the British television series The X Factor. After being eliminated as a solo performer, Malik was brought back into the competition, along with four other contestants, to form the group that would later be known as One Direction. During Zayn’s time in the band, they released four commercially successful albums, performed on a worldwide tour, and won several awards.

In March 2015, Malik’s representative announced the singer’s departure from the band, and Malik signed a solo recording contract with RCA Records. On November 17th, 2015, through an interview for The Fader, Malik teased the release of a new song, “Befour”, from his debut album Mind Of Mine. Lead single “PILLOWTALK” debuted at #1 on the Hot 100, becoming Zayn’s first number one single. By reaching #1 in the US, it achieved something that One Direction never did—their best ranking was #2 with “Best Song Ever.”
