Intro
A
[Verse 1]
A
I had accepted my fate
A
I had it all set in stone
A
I was meant to fade away, in the dark and all alone
A
But now you’ve got me feeling selfish
A
How could I say no
[Bridge 1]
A
When you’re so soft
A
And you’re so warm
A
But roses always have their thorns
A
I feel my soul begin to thaw
A
And I can’t help but wish I never saw you
[Chorus]
A
Why do I have to be so selfish
A
Oh
A
Selfish
[Verse 2]
A
How we met, beneath the tree
A
Keeps me tossing in my sleep
A
Love is scarier than greed
[Bridge 2]
A
But you’re so bright
A
And you’re so pure
A
So tell me what am I here for?
[Bridge 3]
A
But my cruel hеart
A
It won’t say no
A
I have to choose between brеaking your heart
A
And killing my own
[Bridge 4]
A
And you’re so soft,
A
And you’re so warm
A
But roses always have their thorns
A
I feel my soul
A
Begin to thaw
A
And I can’t help but wish I never saw you
[Chorus]
A
Why do I have to be so selfish
A
Oooooooh
Selfish
[Outro]
A
How stupid can I be
A
To think it’d be so easy to let go
A
Of the body that binds me
A
So I have to say goodbye
A
It’s decided I don’t have the option to be selfish
