Intro
Verse
I just don't understand
Why you're running from a good man, baby
Why you wanna turn your back on love
Why you've already given up
See, I know you've been hurt before
But I swear I'll give you so much more
I swear I'll never let you down
'Cause I swear it's you that I adore
And I can't help myself, babe
'Cause I think about you constantly
And my heart gets no rest over you
You, you, yeah, yeah
Chorus
You can call me selfish
But all I want is your love
You can call me hopeless, baby
'Cause I'm hopelessly in love
You can call me unperfect, but who's perfect?
Tell me, what do I gotta do
To prove that I'm the only one for you?
So what's wrong with being selfish?
Verse 2
I'll be taking up your time
'Til the day I make you realize
That, for you, there could be no one else
I've just gotta have you for myself
Baby, I would take good care of you
No matter what it is you're going through
I'll be there for you when you're in need
Baby, believe in me
'Cause, if love is a crime, hey
Then punish me; I would die for you
'Cause I don't want to live without you
What can I do?
(do chorus chords)
You can call me selfish
But all I want is your love
You can call me hopeless, baby
'Cause I'm hopelessly in love
You can call me unperfect, but who's perfect?
Tell me, what do I gotta do
To prove that I'm the only one for you?
Bridge
Why do you keep us apart?
Why won't you give up your heart?
You know that we're meant to be together
And why do you push me away?
All that I want is to give you love
Forever and ever and ever and ever
(do chorus chords)
You can call me selfish
But all I want is your love
And you can call me hopeless, hopeless
Because I'm hopelessly in love
You can call me unperfect, but who's perfect?
Tell me, what do I gotta do
To prove that I'm the only one for you?
Selfishly, I'm in love with you
'Cause I've searched my soul and I know that it's you
Selfishly, I'm in love with you
'Cause I've searched my soul and I know that it's you
Selfishly, I'm in love with you
'Cause I've searched my soul and I know that it's you (do Gb, Ab, Bm)
I'll prove that I'm the only one for you
So what's wrong with being selfish, selfish, selfish?
So what's wrong with being selfish?
Yeah
