I Love Myself

I said to my body, “I want to be friends”
She smiled and said, “I’ve been waiting for this”
Welcomes me home in her tender embrace
A love that feels more like fresh satin and lace

I said to my heart, “you won’t hurt anymore,”
“And we’re leaving attachment to stay at the door”
That love and attention are in itself different
And I will do all that I can to believe it

I love me more than you
And that’s what I’m supposed to do
Cause when the lights fade and everybody leaves
The only person that I have is me

I was once the girl who listened to her thoughts
Crying over boys who I thought were the one
Now I gotta stop thinking about you
Its okay, I know what I gotta do

I’m stronger than I think
I've been thru the ringer
I'm a beautiful girl and a wonderful singer
The universe is talking to me
And she's controlling everything I think I see, oh

It's beautiful
Life is beautiful

I love me more than you
And that’s what I’m supposed to do
Cause when the lights fade and everybody leaves
The only person that I have is me
