Lyrics:
I don’t really have friends don’t go out on weekends
I don’t have a lover left to hold
Friday nights I’m alone sat at the piano
Thinking bout the ex I shouldn’t call

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

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

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 bout the ex I shouldn’t call
Sipping on storms in teacups
You’re thinking I’m drunk in some pub
with people that I hardly know
When I’m so f**king lonely
No one really knows me
You are still a heart I want to hold

You turn, say to me,
You’re happy, and you’re actually seeing somebody
And you’re both so proud of me
But inside my heart starts to scream

Where is 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

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 bout the ex I shouldn’t call
Sipping on storms in teacups
You’re thinking I’m drunk in some pub
with people that I hardly know
When I’m so f**king lonely
No one really knows me
You are still a heart I want to hold

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

I don’t really have friends don’t go out on weekends
I don’t have a lover left to hold
Friday nights I’m alone sat at the piano
Thinking bout the love we used to know
Sipping on storms in teacups
Thinking I’m drunk in some pub with people that I hardly know
When I’m so f**king lonely
No one really knows me
You are still a heart I want, heart I want to hold

Thank you for checking out my new single WEEKENDS ❤🪩 How do you spend your weekends when your heart's hurting?

[RimaSargsyan]

Freya definitely deserves more recognition. She is amazing.

[junebeswick]

This is one of those songs which stops you in your tracts. Just heard it on the radio. Your voice is incredible.

[sisloan]

This is ridiculously good. I think there is something in this that nearly all of us can relate to. Excuse me while I put this on repeat.

[ronellegovender]

I love that she doesn't prance around half naked. She's so beautiful, natural and dignified in the way she carries herself

[karinamoraes]

Freya, you're incredible! You deserve all the recognition in the world, this track is so addictive <3

[aleksandra]

I love this song, I can relate to the loneliness, yeah, but I'm not missing anyone, I've never experienced anyone who I could miss. That's a different kind of loneliness I think.

[ChrissyCrow]

Parts of this song stab me directly through the heart. What a lyric, how it captures the raw feelings of life so well and what an incredible voice. ❤️

[thomaslister]

Many songs come and go, but occasionally one comes along and totally grabs you. This song is one of those.

"Weeknds"

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

You say, "Now I see, you busy
Out and living my wildest of dreams
With new friends, new cities"
But now inside my heart wants to scream

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

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

You turn, say to me
"You're happy and you're actually seeing somebody"
And you're both so proud of me
But now inside my heart starts to scream

Where is 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

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

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

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

[EtamTheGreat]

Damn this song hits hard. Literally describing my life right now.

[timewilltell]

Her voice is truly amazing. A thing of wonder. I could listen to her sing all day. Beautiful ❤️

[amplifiedshock]

This song is so catchy. This artist is so underrated!

[TomSonic]

Freya didn’t just deliver, she SERVED.

[SarahGMoore-exkf]

Oh my God, first time listening to this song and I got goosebumps. That never happens. What an incredible vocal range on this woman!

[Dilligaf]

Lockdown live favourite of mine. Love how those of us that joined those lives have influenced what tracks you added to your album. Really looking forward to hearing the album, and can't wait for weekends to drop on Thursday. 🌹🌹

[arthurdaniels]

[lydiro]

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

You say, "Now I see you busy"
Out and living my wildest of dreams
With new friends, new cities
But now inside my heart wants to scream

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

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

You turn, say to me
"You're happy and you're actually seeing somebody"
And you're both so proud of me

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

We had a love that never died
You were my world and on my side
From brightest day to darkest night
You look at me and ask me why

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
