In My Own Selfish Way

In my own selfish way

I'm right for you

I try to be special

I try to be true.

And I'll be your man

When you need a man

When you need a witness

I'll take the stand.

But sometimes I'll be a little boy

Trembling with fear

And I need you with me

I need you here.

When day grows dark

And night descends

When passion mellows

We can be friends.

Nothing's for certain

In dealing with hearts

Some grow together

And some grow apart.

[instrumental]

Then there's the part of me

That wants someone new

Still there's the heart of me

That wants only you.

In my own selfish way

In my own selfish way
