My journey to self-love isn’t complete without my first love, music.

I was driving in the car the other day and discovered something amazing. Instead of singing the song TO someone else, I flipped the lyrics to sing about myself.

This comes in handy especially with love songs. We all don’t have someone to dedicate a love song to, but we can dedicate them to ourselves. First person flips the “you” to “I” in case you didn’t know.

So here are 10 love songs you should listen to or sing in first person.

I Will Always Love You by Whitney Houston

“I hope life treats me kind
And I hope I have all I’ve dreamed of
And I wish to me joy and happiness
But above all this, I wish me love.

And IIIIIIIIIIIII will always love me!!!”

Sucker by The Jonas Brothers

“I’m a sucker for me
I say the word and I’ll go anywhere blindly
I’m a sucker for me
Any road I take, I know that I’ll find me.”

Thinkin Out Loud by Ed Sheeran

“And darling I will be loving me ’til I’m 70
And baby my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I’m thinking ’bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Oh me I fall in love with me every single day
And I just wanna tell me I am”

All of Me by John Legend

“Cause all of me
Loves all of me
Love my curves and all my edges
All my perfect imperfections
Give my all to me
I’ll give my all to me
I’m my end and my beginning
Even when I lose I’m winning”

Shape of You by Ed Sheeran

“I’m in love with the shape of me
I push and pull like a magnet do
Although my heart is falling too
I’m in love with my body.”

Promise by Jagged Edge

“If I need a love, I got the love that I need
Ain’t no way they can take that from me
And I pray to God that one day they will see
They’ll see that I’m all that I need.”

Fallin’ by Alicia Keys

“I keep on fallin’
In and out of love with me
I never loved someone
The way that I love me.”

At Last by Etta James

“At last my love has come along
My lonely days are over and life is like a song
At last the skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up clover the night I looked at me.”

Love on Top by Beyonce

“Baby it’s me
I’m the one I love
I’m the one I need
I’m the only one I see
Come on baby it’s me
I’m the one that gives my all
I’m the one I can always call
When I need to make everything stop
Finally I put my love on top”

Just the Way You Are by Bruno Mars

“When I see me face
There’s not a thing that I would change ’cause I’m amazing
Just the way I am
And when I smile
The whole world stops and stares for a while
‘Cause girl I’m amazing
Just the way I am.”
