Weekends (Live at Apollo)

Lyrics

[Intro] And I don't really have friends Don't go out on weekends I don't have a lover left to hold Friday night, I'm alone, sat at the piano Thinking about the ex I shouldn't call [Verse 1] You say, "Now I see, you busy Out and living the wildest of dreams With new friends, new cities" But now inside my heart wants to scream [Pre-Chorus] Where's the love that I knew we ignited? Darkness in me and I learned how to hide it Made you believe that I'm happier like this No, no [Chorus] I don't really have friends Don't go out on weekends I don't have a lover left to hold Friday night, I'm alone, sat at the piano Thinking about the ex I shouldn't call I'm sipping on storms in teacups You're thinking I'm drunk in some pub With people that I hardly know But I'm so fucking lonely, no one really knows me You are still a heart I want to hold [Verse 2] You turn, say to me, you're happy And you're actually seeing somebody And you're both so proud of me Inside my heart starts to scream [Pre-Chorus] Where's the love that I know we ignited? Fire in me and I learned how to light it Made you believe I was happier like this No, no [Chorus] I don't really have friends Don't go out on weekends I don't have a lover left to hold Friday night, I'm alone, sat at the piano Thinking about the ex I shouldn't call I'm sipping on storms in teacups You're thinking I'm drunk in some pub With people that I hardly know But I'm so fucking lonely, no one really knows me You are still a heart I want to hold [Bridge] We had a love that never died You were my world and on my side From bright as day to dark as night You look at me and ask me why [Chorus] I don't really have friends Don't go out on weekends I don't have a lover left to hold Friday night, I'm alone, sat at the piano Thinking about the love we used to know I'm sipping on storms in teacups You're thinking I'm drunk in some pub With people that I hardly know But I'm so fucking lonely, no one really knows me You are still a heart I want, heart I want to hold [Spoken Outro] Good evening Hammersmith Apollo, how are you doing? My name is Freya Ridings and it has been far too long since we have seen you London You're my hometown, my home crowd, and we're so grateful to be back after four years Thank you so much for spending your Friday the 13th with us And for braving coming out I feel like so much has happened in the last four years since I last stood on this stage in front of you And I'm so excited to take you on the Blood Orange journey This is the Blood Orange tour, thank you so much for coming As you can hear in "Weekends", it was in quite a dark place And the journey through the ups and downs is the one we're going to take you on tonight And this next song is definitely not about stalking your ex around the supermarket in lockdown
