There was a time when it was all about us, nobody more Seems like every other night you're out that door And I don't know what you're doing, maybe pursuing another man There was a time when I'd lay it all down on the line And bare everything I had til you were mine But now all bets are off, can't afford the cost of loving you Why you so selfish? Be by my side I'll runaway and hide til I can't help it I know you're not here with me Just how much more giving can I take? There was a time when you didn't care at all if you were poor
Now all you seem to want is to have more And the cash you keep on spending It could be mending our broken lives Back in the day, before all you cared about was yourself Your concerns were more for love and heart and health But I won't stick a brighter day And the only cure for me is your love Why you so selfish? Be by my side, I'll runaway and hide til I can't help it I know you're not here with me Just how much more giving can I take? Take it, take it all, take it, you'll take it all (x4) Why are you so selfish?
