The meaning of the lyrics of the song "REaR VIeW" by the artist "Zayn (Malik)"

In the song "REaR VIeW", Zayn (Malik) sings about complex feelings for a person with a difficult past. The lyrical hero admits that he knows about "all the obstacles" and "all the love you've lost," he is ready to be there, "to follow you anywhere," but cannot offer true love.

The phrase "Can your heart be mine already on the search 'cause I ain't got the time to help you search?" speaks of the hero's unwillingness to wait for the object of his feelings to figure things out. He admits that he cannot love her ("I wanna love you, but I can't"), but is ready to be there as a friend ("Looks like you need a friend, friend").

In the bridge of the song ("Never had a doubt about myself, but I doubt you"), Zayn expresses uncertainty in the relationship, perhaps because of his lover's past, which scares him. He is tired of searching "alone" and wants to be with her, but doubts and fear of commitment prevent him from taking a step towards true love.

[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.

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 done

And all the walls 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 gone to start again,

Heard about all the things you've been through,

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.

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 done

And all the walls 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 gone to start again,

Heard about all the things you've been through,

It sounds like you need a friend, a friend.

[Bridge]

I never doubted myself

But I doubted you,

I'm tired of looking by myself

And not with you.

[Chorus:]

Heard about all the things you done

And all the walls 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 gone to start again,

Heard about all the things you've been through,

It sounds like you need a friend, a friend.
