Verse 1
Nobody has to tell me
You talk to another who is not me
Lit: You talk with another who I am not
And I confess that seeing it
Baby, it makes me want to have you
Chorus 1
You want to make me jealous
Lit: You want to give me jelousy
Chorus 1
It's a game left between you and me
You and me, you and me
Verse 2
How they look at me is obvious
Come mark your territory
This secret between the two
Or: This secret between us two
I know it makes you want to have me
Chorus 2
I like to make you jealous
Chorus 2
It's a game left between you and me
You and me, you and me

SONG MEANING

Selfish Love is a bilingual pop flirtation where Selena Gomez—drawing on her Mexican-American roots—and French producer DJ Snake turn romantic jealousy into a playful dancefloor game. Over tropical beats and sleek sax hooks, Selena slips between English and Spanish to confess that she likes that anxious spark she feels when she imagines her partner chatting with someone else. It is the same thrill he chases when he tries to make her wonder, Does somebody else care?

Rather than a toxic tug-of-war, the song paints jealousy as spicy seasoning for a relationship that already has trust at its core. Both lovers secretly enjoy staking their claim—“marca tu territorio”—because every twinge of envy reminds them how much they still want each other. The result is a lighthearted anthem that says: keeping the romance alive sometimes means playing a little cat-and-mouse, as long as the prize is still you and me, you and me.
