Unselfish

If you only hear one voice tonight, let it be mine
If you only hear one voice tonight, let it be mine
I know it's selfish
But I may just say something amazing
I may just say something unselfish
If you only save one life tonight, let it be mine
If you only save one life tonight, let it be mine
I know it's selfish
But I may just do something amazing
Oh I may just do something unselfish
I have stolen from paupers
Taken candy from babies
And I -- I give away endings
And plant sand in the desert
But tonight I don't want to be selfish
No tonight I'm praying that I'll be unselfish
If you only dream one dream tonight, let it be of me
If you only dream one dream tonight, let it be of me
I know it's selfish
But in your dreams I could be amazing
In your dreams I could be unselfish
If you only wish one wish tonight, let it be of me
If you only wish one wish tonight, let it be of me
I know it's selfish
But just one wish could make me amazing
Just one wish could make me unselfish
I have stolen from paupers
Taken candy from babies
I give away endings
And plant sand in the desert
But tonight will be different
Oh tonight I'll make shoes for the elves
Give my heart to the tin man
Feed my corn to the crows
Because tonight I don't want to be selfish
No tonight I don't want to be selfish
No tonight I'm praying that I'll be unselfish.
