Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Baby, let's be honest about this

There's only room for one in your heart

So tell me, darling, why are we like this?

I must admit that I kind of like it

[Verse 2]

Oh, you're acting sweet

I know what that means

All these games we play

Always end the same

[Verse 3]

Selfish love, why do I do these things?

I break you down just to get my way

Selfish love, darling, you do it too

You tell me lies when I bend the truth

And I, I know that I can't get enough

Selfish love

[Verse 4]

Baby, now it feels like we're dancing

Dodging bullets, now ain't that romantic?

Take what I want, but you want me to take it

I only give love when I want to make it

[Verse 5]

Oh, you're acting sweet

I know what that means

All these games we play

Always end the same

[Verse 6]

Selfish love, why do I do these things?

I break you down just to get my way

Selfish love, darling, you do it too

You tell me lies when I bend the truth

And I, I know that I can't get enough

Selfish love

[Verse 7]

Selfish love

Selfish love

Oh, you're acting sweet

I know what that means

Selfish love

Oh, you're acting sweet

And I know what that means

[Verse 8]

Selfish love, selfish love

Selfish love, selfish love

Selfish love, selfish love

Selfish love, selfish love
