Selfish
from Contradictions by Pauline Herr
lyrics
Boy you keep me
Yeah you keep me guessing
And I wanna address it
But I freeze up, is it worth the fuss
With you I’m easy
Cuz I don’t want anybody else
I want you all to myself
I’m being selfish
But I can’t help it, oh yeah
No I can’t help it (I wish that I controlled my heart)
I’m being selfish (But you’re just flowing through my lungs)
No I can’t help it (Help me, help me)
No I, No I (Can’t get you out my)
Get you out my blood
I can’t get you out my blood
I can’t get you out my blood
So I guess I’ll just wait it out, wait it out
Like I always do
Boy you keep me
Yeah you keep me guessing
And I wanna address it
But I freeze up, is it worth the fuss
With you I’m easy
Cuz I don’t want anybody else
I want you all to myself
I’m being selfish
But I can’t help it, oh yeah
No I can’t help it (I wish that I controlled my heart)
I’m being selfish (But you’re just flowing through my lungs)
No I can’t help it (Help me, help me)
No I, No I (Can’t get you out my)
Get you out my blood
I can’t get you out my blood
I can’t get you out my blood
So I guess I’ll just wait it out, wait it out
Like I always do
I wonder what you think of when you hear my name
I wonder what you're dreaming, do you feel the same
All this back and forth, i’m losing my cool
Where do you wanna go
Yeah you keep me guessing
And I wanna address it
But I freeze up, is it worth the fuss
With you I’m easy
Cuz I don’t want anybody else
I want you all to myself
I’m being selfish
But I can’t help it, oh yeah
No I can’t help it (I wish that I controlled my heart)
I’m being selfish (But you’re just flowing through my lungs)
No I can’t help it (Help me, help me)
No I, No I (Can’t get you out my)
Get you out my blood
I can’t get you out my blood
I can’t get you out my blood
So I guess I’ll just wait it out, wait it out
Like I always do
Boy you keep me
Yeah you keep me guessing
And I wanna address it
But I freeze up, is it worth the fuss
With you I’m easy
Cuz I don’t want anybody else
I want you all to myself
I’m being selfish
But I can’t help it, oh yeah
No I can’t help it (I wish that I controlled my heart)
I’m being selfish (But you’re just flowing through my lungs)
No I can’t help it (Help me, help me)
No I, No I (Can’t get you out my)
Get you out my blood
I can’t get you out my blood
I can’t get you out my blood
So I guess I’ll just wait it out, wait it out
Like I always do
I wonder what you think of when you hear my name
I wonder what you're dreaming, do you feel the same
All this back and forth, i’m losing my cool
Where do you wanna go
