    A loyal woman is a greatest blessing you will ever have. A disloyal woman the greatest heartache.

    Like Drake said at the 2019 Grammys: "You've already won if you have people singing your songs word for word, if you're a hero in your hometown. Look, if there's people who have regular jobs who are coming out in the rain, in the snow, spending their hard earned money to buy tickets to come to your shows, you don't need this right here. I promise you, you already won." Abel, you are the true winner
  • Thought I almost died in my dream again (Baby, almost died) Fightin' for my life, I couldn't breathe again I'm fallin' into new (Oh, oh) Without you goin' smooth (Fallin' in) 'Cause my heart belongs to you I'll risk it all for you I won't just leave This time, I'll never leave I wanna share babies Protection, we won't need Your body next to me Is just a memory I'm fallin' in too deep, oh Without you, I'm asleep It's on me, only me, oh Talk to me, without you, I can't breathe My darkest hours Girl, I felt so alone inside of this crowded room Different girls on the floor, distractin' my thoughts of you I turned into the man I used to be, to be Put myself to sleep Just so I can get closer to you inside my dreams Didn't wanna wake up 'less you were beside me I just wanted to call you and say, and say Oh, baby Where are you now when I need you most? I'd give it all just to hold you close Sorry that I broke your heart, your heart Never comin' through I was running away from facin' reality Wastin' all of my time on living my fantasies Spendin' money to compensate, compensate 'Cause I want you, baby I'll be livin' in Heaven when I'm inside of you It was definitely a blessing, wakin' beside you I'll never let you down again, again Oh, baby Where are you now when I need you most? I'd give it all just to hold you close Sorry that I broke your heart, your heart I said, baby I'll treat you better than I did before I'll hold you down and not let you go This time, I won't break your heart, your heart, yeah I know it's all my fault Made you put down your guard I know I made you fall I said you were wrong for me I lied to you, I lied to you, I lied to you (To you) Can't hide the truth, I stayed with her in spite of you You did some things that you regret, still right for you 'Cause this house is not a home Without my baby Where are you now when I need you most? I gave it all just to hold you close Sorry that I broke your heart, your heart And I said, baby I'll treat you better than I did before I'll hold you down and not let you go This time, I won't break your heart, your heart, no

    This one is my favourite from After Hours. I think this track represents the whole album: first part is full of peace, the author describes his affection to his loved one - first few tracks from the album are about it. He tells her he'll never leave her. In the second part (starting with ,,my darkest hours" verse) the tempo is faster and we know from lyrics that he is in the party, probably with other girls. We know that he came back to his old ways (Hearthless, Faith, maybe a part of Blinding Lights - in these songs he is the other version of himself, the 'party' version). In the last part, he realises he messed up and his girlfriend left him. He's full of regrets, he apologises to her, he says he won't do it again (won't cheat on her). As you might've noticed, at the beginning he also tells her that he won't leave her this time, so I think this song describes an endless loop. At the end she probably forgives him and the song starts from the beginning. Everything in this song is perfect - composition, lyrics, vocal and even effects. This is a true masterpiece for me. Listening to this in the crappy speakers/headphones should be considered a sin! Take care!

    This is the BEST song of this album. Everything- the lyrics, beats, music just sits perfectly. I listen to it with my eyes closed and I've literally cried to it sometimes too. I have, am and will always listen to this masterpiece with same feelings. Every Time.

    I think The Weeknd is the only artist I can just sit at my computer and do nothing but listen to his music, it's so damn good
  • @sofiaxo4543
    Damn look how many lyricists and producers are in this, what a great team of artists
  • @Andy99115
    I have this song on my mind all the time since I ever heard it, those lines, "oh, baby where are you now when I need you most?" hits me all the time it kinda feels like this song is synced with me that's the reason why I keep loving Abel's songs and falling in love with his songs
  • I love the beat to this song. I think this would be a good album to listen to in a car.
