Lyrics

0:13Some say that love is blind
0:15Some say you almost lose your mind
0:19You got under my skin
0:22The moment you walked in
0:25And no matter how hard I try
0:28Rejection kept me occupied
0:31But now I can’t contain
0:34The way that I behave
0:37When I see your face
0:40I won’t compromise
0:43You belong to me
0:47It’s you and I
0:50Well it’s no wonder
0:53I’m selfish
0:56Maybe I want to lose control
0:59Maybe I’m better off this way
1:02It gets harder every day
1:05I’m selfish
1:08Maybe I want to lose control
1:11Maybe it’s wrong and I can’t tell
1:14It’s you or no one else
1:21I knew I’d get you in the end
1:24It wasn’t how but only when
1:27And then I’ll win my prize
1:30And I’ll be satisfied
1:33When I see your face
1:36I won’t compromise
1:39You belong to me
1:43It’s you and I
1:46Well it’s no wonder
1:49Cause I’m selfish
1:52Maybe I want to lose control
1:55Maybe I’m better off this way
1:58It gets harder every day
2:01I’m selfish
2:04Maybe I want to lose control
2:07Maybe it’s wrong and I can’t tell
2:11It’s you or no one else
2:15Cause in a perfect world
2:19It’s a perfect dream
2:22I’ll never be afraid
2:25I’ll never be alone
2:28Cause it’s you I’m sure
2:31I’m good for
2:35Why maybe I’m selfish
2:38And I can’t help but lose control
2:42Maybe I’m better off this way
2:45And I won’t suffer every day
2:49Now I’m selfish
2:53Maybe I want to lose control
2:56Maybe it’s wrong and I can’t tell
2:58It’s you or no one else
3:05Maybe I’m selfish
3:12It’s you or no one else
Some say that love is blind
Some say you almost lose your mind
You got under my skin
The moment you walked in
And no matter how hard I try
Rejection kept me occupied
But now I can’t contain
The way that I behave
When I see your face
I won’t compromise
You belong to me
It’s you and I
Well it’s no wonder
I’m selfish
Maybe I want to lose control
Maybe I’m better off this way
It gets harder every day
I’m selfish
Maybe I want to lose control
Maybe it’s wrong and I can’t tell
It’s you or no one else
I knew I’d get you in the end
It wasn’t how but only when
And then I’ll win my prize
And I’ll be satisfied
When I see your face
I won’t compromise
You belong to me
It’s you and I
Well it’s no wonder
Cause I’m selfish
Maybe I want to lose control
Maybe I’m better off this way
It gets harder every day
I’m selfish
Maybe I want to lose control
Maybe it’s wrong and I can’t tell
It’s you or no one else
Cause in a perfect world
It’s a perfect dream
I’ll never be afraid
I’ll never be alone
Cause it’s you I’m sure
I’m good for
Why maybe I’m selfish
And I can’t help but lose control
Maybe I’m better off this way
And I won’t suffer every day
Now I’m selfish
Maybe I want to lose control
Maybe it’s wrong and I can’t tell
It’s you or no one else
Maybe I’m selfish
It’s you or no one else
