LYRICS:
Oh, I can’t do this anymore I don’t wanna get involved
With all these men
I’m so much better than
And maybe it’s a little cold
But I think I could play the role
Coz, no one can love me
The way I can
Catch me out in Paris on my ones
Stay out dancing till the dancing’s done
I got me I don’t need anyone
Hold me close
Love myself the most
Lately I been just what I need
Stole my heart and I’m gonna be my own boyfriend
Be my own boyfriend
Lately I been just what I need
Be my baby I’m gonna be my own boyfriend
Oh, I could save myself the stress
Wear the trousers and the dress
Girl you look so god damn good tonight
And I say that with my chest
You and me could be the best
I can do whatever whenever the fuck I want
Hold me close
Love myself the most
Lately I been just what I need
Stole my heart and I’m gonna be my own boyfriend
Be my own boyfriend
Lately I been just what I need
Be my baby I’m gonna be my own boyfriend
Be my own boyfriend x3
Lately I been just what I need
Be my baby I’m gonna be my own boyfriend
"I was processing and feeling the feelings and then lockdown happened and I had to spend a lot of time by myself and look within, as we all did I feel, and I realised that I’m actually my own boyfriend. I don’t need someone else to complete me, I don’t need an other half, I’m whole, so I really wanted to write a song capturing that essence.
It’s a very societal thing that you’re always looking for your Prince Charming or that when you meet this person that you’ll be ‘whole’ or ‘successful’, like that’s the end goal. But I think the end goal is being happy by yourself, and if you do meet someone then it’s a really cute accessory - a cute addition to my life, but it’s not completing my life. It’s not the whole look, he’s just the bag!"
-Olivia Dean
Dear Olivia, you reached this wisdom at such an early age..... lucky you! I came to this conclusion after 2 divorces above 45 but now I feel so complete and happy! :D Your songs are great and lovely just as you are!
Just found this masterpiece, and currently my fav song because I truly feel you... the song, the video, the lirycs...
so refreshing.
Self love is the best love bebé.
I'm my own wife. I have the rings and everything hahaha
🥰
I just found this via the YT algorhythm and have been listening to it every day for like a month now. Absolutely adore this playfully feisty gem of a song.
Thank you! Me too. I can be happy, fully by myself
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Such a good feeling!! ✨️🫶
Te amo Olivia, eres la mejor🥳
really hard to describe just how perfect this song is. it just hits such a specific nerve in my mind, it feels so good to listen to
I saw this song on a satisfying story on snap, and now I’m here :)
ME TOO! I was searching up sm stuff to find it 😭 but I finally did and this song is really good 😮💨
Same
Sameee
Tripppy 😊
Although I am happily married, I really resonate with the message of this song, the lyrics, and the musicality! Bravo Olivia!
Honestly, everything she does feels so fresh and new, it reminds me of when Amy Winehouse came to change the music, all the love!
This song randomly popped up as an ad on my CZcams and I'm hooked.
What ad ?
This touched my heart softly.
I’m bringing my power back.
Love you love you that song realy make me love
Love her seen her at glasto ❤
Olivia you are an old soul. You just get it at a very early age. I saw you on CBS Sat. Mornings and had to get all your albums. Your music is perfect for long road trips, cocktail parties and cleaning house. I will see you in concert one day. Thank you for sharing your talent. ❤🤗
Saw her sing this last night at Live At Leeds. It was sublime, and she's such a classy, charismatic presence on stage. I really hope she gets the success she deserves
This is entirely my national anthem for my own inner space. Grateful for this song✨🎶💕
I looove so much ❤
plsss Come to Thailand Olivia
Independent woman 💪🏽🔥
One of my favourite songs, I love it so much, great message, beautiful vocals, definitely counts as my pick me up song ❤.
Favourite part 2:46 -
I just discovered you and your songs an hour ago cause someone mentioned a concert - so great!
hearing this song I first thought - "ups, this is the same idea as in the song 'Flowers' by Cyrus" - but - well - YOUve been first with your SongIdea in 2021 - and did already such a great song about that; I also liked that "I could be a florist" that you postet 6 months ago ;) - and so many other great songs of yours - may the future-Grammys come to you! Music Industry would be stupid if not!
what a healing song
Big Up
from Portugal
Theres shade of the old 70's solo artists to this, I love it, anything with an choir or an orchestra and I'm sold, beautiful harmaomius smooth voice, she sings it so effortlessly.
yaaaaaaaay
Yes ma'am!!!! 🔥🔥 damn right "YOU" are always enough!!. Us women need to remember to tell ourselves that!!.
This the one
That's what I mean the true music! It really touches
That's just my anthem for life. I'm so happy I finally came to this stage of self-love. Thank so much for this song!
This reminds me of "hardest part". The grown-up woman vibe. Idk, I love it. That was just I needed to hear kkkkk thank you, Olivia❤️
❤❤❤❤❤❤
this scratches my brain in the most perfect way
PERIOD!!!
❗️❗️❗️❗️
this song is so dreamy and heavenly!! Olivia Dean has done it again lads
You are amazing ,and I really meant that
Shes criminally underrated
Geez I am SOBBING. What a gorgeous, empowering song.
Jesus godamn lord, what a sound, what a voice, what a song, im getting stuck with this song rn
I already now it's going to be amazing
I'm older, and this song has me all crazy and in love with myself. It almost makes me want to cry, laugh, scream, and run down the street like I have been delivered into a new religion. The way she says she looks so damn good and she gives herself her own compliments. And ohhhh, the instrumental section. This song is the epitome of what every woman needs to experience, especially as a healing e exercise, and I say it with my chest.....lo😮l I love her for this song. I feel sooooo good and liberated
Been single for so long I just gave up trying but this has uplifted me so much thank you Olivia! Great to hear such talent from a local londoner
This track is literally what made me love myself and realize my worth thank you Olivia Dean
Te amo
Love love love love love!!!!!!!!
I am obsessed with this song😍
So many people are missing out on this
this song has supported me so much through the journey back to myself. so crazy when youre finally in a place where you’re totally happy and fulfilled in your own energy. comfort in solitude is so empowering and nourishing
i wished u had thousands of songs and keep listenning it all de all night
✨💙✨
FOUND THIS SONG ON MY SNAP AND WHAT THE ACTUAL HECK! ITS SO GOOOOOODDDD!!!
I spent over four years being single after having years of back to back codependent and toxic relationships. I spent so much time on my own and got to know myself better. And the more you spend time & effort to know someone, the easier it is to love that person. I'm still getting there, but I'm the happiest I've ever been in my life.
This song is like a cute accessory to my journey to being the love of my life, it brings so much joy and main character energy whenever I listen to it.
Thanks Olivia : )
I knew this was gonna be a bop before I heard it... you need to be bigger and you will be bigger xxx❤️❤️❤️❤️
Spotify brought me here... Yes Gurl💞
