"Love Yourself" lyrics

"Love Yourself"

I went to a party
The folks were fine
I ate coconut cake
And drank old red wine
And all on the way home
I thought about life
How so much good
Is borne of so much strife

And when I finally crawled into bed
You would not believe the words in my head

Oh baby love yourself
Ain't nobody else
Gonna fill up that hole
Oh baby love yourself
Ain't nobody else
Gonna carry your soul

I went to a sleep over
The kids were wacked
Their bodies were centaurs
And they heads were hacked
And all on the way home
I thought about time
When it's yours
And when it's mine

And I cannot believe that this is the deal
But I can only trust the things I feel

Oh baby love yourself
Ain't nobody else
Gonna fill up that hole
Oh baby love yourself
Ain't nobody else
Gonna carry your soul

Don't you care what people think
You know you're on the brink
Of breaking the chain
But you best be kind
You better train your mind
To heal your pain

Oh baby love yourself
C'mon baby love yourself
Oh baby love yourself
Honey you're gonna
C'mon and love yourself

Oh baby love yourself
Ain't nobody else
Gonna fill up that hole
Yeah baby love yourself
Ain't nobody else
Gonna carry your soul

Hey baby love yourself
Ain't nobody, nobody else
Can kick at your goal
Yes baby love yourself
Ain't nobody else
Gonna make you whole

I went to a party
The folks were fine
I ate coconut cake
And drank old red wine
