Selfish Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You wanted me to be the bad boy
someone you could run to
when things boring with your boyfriend
you could count on me for something new
but it never really worked
cuz people they get hurt
and this time that person
was me
I wanted you all to myself
I couldn't share you with anybody else
You wanted me to be the tough guy
to put my feelings aside
believe me, girl, when I say I was trying
to share you with another guy
but it never really worked
cuz people they get hurt
and this time that person
was me
I wanted you all to myself
I couldn't share you with anybody else
It wasn't easy
to bite my tongue
when I knew
you were the one
you wanted me to be the bad boy
to put my feelings aside
belive me, girl, when I say I was trying
but my feelings. . .
I can't hide
I wanted you all to myself
I couldn't share you with anybody else
anyone else. . .
I wanted you all to myself
I couldn't share you with anybody else
(anybody else . . .)
no one else
no one else
no one else
no one, no one
no one else
no one else
no one else
no one but me
