Selfish Love

VERSE 1

I saw the sunset in your eyes

A place I will never be

But I can't leave you here behind

From here I don't wanna leave

 

VERSE 2

I can't live if I don't try

But my heart says let it go

The letting go is of my pride

But the pride is all I know

Better give in before she's gone

I don't wanna miss this

I thought I knew what's right from wrong

From here I wanna leave

From here I wanna leave

 

CHORUS

And I know that you don't want me to

Remind me time and time again who I am

Tell me everything I've done

Can't compare to what's in you

 

VERSE 3

I said no and then I wrote

That letter to you

Please tell me the way you want to go

How can I prove you?

As I wait for your reply

My body's shaking

As I dream your hand's in mine

Will you be with me?

Will you be with me?

 

BRIDGE

I keep on fighting

And I think I know what's good for me

And that's when I find it

That I need so much more to breathe

I hear you crying

I see you reaching out to me

And I can confide in

The one who has always held me

 

CHORUS 2

And I know that you don't want me to

Remind me time and time again who I am

Tell me everything I've done

Can't compare to you
