Mendes' latest track comes a few weeks after he and the former "Fifth Harmony" member announced their breakup.
Although Mendes did not confirm whether Cabello inspired the song, the lyrics contained an emotional state about two lovers starting to imagine the future without each other as they try to hold on in their relationship.
"Are we gonna make it? / Is this gonna hurt? / Oh, we can try to sedate it But that never works," Mendes sang.
Per the outlet, one verse seemingly referenced his dreams with Cabello as their connection has started "fading to black."

The chorus appears to highlight their breakup announcement, which was posted on their Instagram stories. "If you tell me you're leaving / I'll make it easy / It'll be okay," the lyrics read.
In their statement, which appears to be identical, the "Señorita" singers revealed that they decided to end their relationship, but their love for each other remains "stronger than ever."
The former couple said they started out as best friends and will continue the way they are.
"We so appreciate your support from the beginning and moving forward," they wrote.
