The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Starry Eyes" by the artist "Weeknd, The"

In "Starry Eyes," The Weeknd delves into his feelings for someone grappling with deep emotional wounds. The speaker, having only encountered his beloved in dreams during his lonely youth, now confronts the reality of her shattered spirit.

He sees her as "broken," "crushed," and "tormented by a shattered soul." Despite this, his feelings don't fade; instead, they intensify, transforming into a desire to protect, heal, and bring her back to life.

He pleads for permission to be by her side, promising patient support while she recovers and vowing to shower her with the love and care she needs. He's ready to take responsibility for her happiness, pledging to "walk every step" with her and "put her back on her feet."

Acknowledging her pain and potential distrust, he's prepared for any response, even rejection. He's endured his own trials, transforming from a hopeful youth into a cynical man. This transformation, he suggests, has made him stronger and ready to face any challenge on the path to her heart.

I only met you in my dreams before

When I was young and alone in the world,

You were there when I needed someone

To call my girl.

And now you're my reality

And I wanna feel you close,

But you're defeated, baby,

Broken, hurtin', sufferin' from a shattered soul,

Ohh, a shattered soul, ohh!

Let me be there,

Let me be there for your heart.

Let me be there,

I can be there til you're whole.

You weren't touched by a man in so long,

‘Cause the last time it was way too strong,

Let me be there,

Let me be there for your heart.

Let me love you,

Let me love you like you need.

And I'll make it,

Make it my responsibility.

I'll be there every step of the way,

I'll get you back on your feet,

Let me love you,

Let me love you like you need.

And you can kick me,

Kick me to the curb,

It's okay, baby,

I promise that I felt worse.

Back then I was starry eyed,

And now I'm so cynical,

Baby, break me,

Kick me to the curb,

Ohh!
