The Weeknd Is Totally Trying to Win Bella Hadid Back With These New Songs, Right?

The Weeknd may need made a mistake. Well, not less than that is how he places it in his new heartbreak EP, My Dear Melancholy, largely about his failed relationship with Selena Gomez and his enduring fondness for Bella Hadid. While the songs that explicitly reference Gomez are bitter and scornful, those referencing Hadid are wistful, impassioned, and barely NSFW. Ahead, learn the lyrics that appear an entire lot like a plea for reconciliation.

“Try Me”

• “You’re the best I ever had / Baby girl, remind me.”
• “You’re lookin’ grown since the last time I looked at you / It might have been, been about a couple months / But I just got the picture that you texted to me.”

The Weeknd hasn’t had many relationships within the public eye, however right here it appears he is classifying Hadid as “the best” he is ever had — particularly since we now know his post-breakup emotions about Gomez. It additionally has been “a couple months” since The Weeknd final noticed Hadid: he was photographed leaving her apartment in November of 2017. As for the image he obtained through textual content message, effectively, we’re in all probability higher off not understanding.

“Wasted Times”

• “Wasted times I spent with someone else / She wasn’t even half of you.”
• “And now I’m askin’, who do you belong to now? / Who you give that love to now? / Who you pullin’ up on? / Who you gettin’ sprung for now? / And what they got that I ain’t got? ‘Cause I got a lot.”
• “These girls only want you when you’re winnin’ / But you’ve been with me from the beginnin’ / And I know right now that we’re not talkin’ / I hope you know this d*ck is still an option.”
• “You were equestrian, so ride it like a champion.”

“Wasted Times” is a doozy, and maybe the music that the majority explicitly references Hadid. The Weeknd begins by taking a jab at Gomez (“She wasn’t even half of you”), after which inquires about Hadid’s present relationship standing, since she’s been fairly non-public about that following their breakup in 2016. In the next verse, he acknowledges that Hadid was with him firstly of his mainstream success and proceeds to simply lay it all on the market. The most blatant reference, nevertheless, is that steamy “equestrian” line: the mannequin has been an avid horseback rider all her life and even had desires of competing within the Olympics.
