You're Selling Yourself Short Lyrics

You say your heart don't care.
Your mind has no place for me there.
My presence is too much for you to bear.

You say you have it all
because your ambition is tall
but you are unaware of your downfall.

I might as well talk to a brick wall.

You're selling yourself short.
We share a heart as deep as abstract art
yet you claim that we're too much apart.

You're selling yourself short.
Our love is a mission you want to abort.
You're giving up everything our lives and relationship has taught.

You go for her yet you won't go for me.
She will bring you trauma and tragedy.
Can't you see?

Our bond is meant to forge a destiny!
Why can't you see?
Why do you have to make me plea?

You say you don't want me.
You say you would rather die
but you are hiding the feelings
that you constantly deny.

There are strong feelings that you belie but
it frustrates me to the point where I ask why?

You're selling yourself short.
What about the competition I fought to win over your heart?
Isn't it your sympathy and love that I caught?

You're selling yourself short.
Your willingness to abort is breaking my heart.
Why are you trying to depart?

You're selling yourself short.
I have no other last resort.
Don't give me another heartless retort.

You're leading your feelings astray
not realizing it is your
heart that you betray.

You're giving yourself away not realizing
that where we lay is meant to be today.

You're selling yourself short.
We have a heart as clear as concrete art
yet you claim that we're too much apart.

You're selling yourself short.
Our love is a mission you want to abort.
You're giving up everything our lives and relationship has taught.

You're selling yourself short.
What about the competition I fought to win over your heart?
Isn't it your sympathy and love that I caught?

You're selling yourself short.
Your willingness to abort is breaking my heart.
Why are you trying to depart?

You're selling yourself short. You're selling yourself short. You're selling yourself short.

Don't blame me if you've forgotten the
lessons my love for you has taught!

You're selling yourself short!

You're selling yourself short!
