Jealousy
Has gone and got a hold of me
I could offer an apology
Or take one on the chin
But honestly
It gets a little hard to see
Exactly what’s in front of me
When I see you with him
And I can’t tell no one
‘cause I got no reason
To be acting the way that I am
And I can’t do nothing
And I need to come clean
I saw the way you looked at him
Well, it’s scandalous
I saw his eyes move up your dress
Well, he was being obvious
You said he’s just a friend
Slight caress
Well, I swear I saw your hand touch his
I try not to be envious
But I can never win
Too blind to focus
And too dead to notice
That this could be a sign of the end
And I know that I’m loveless; too contentious
To ever be exactly the same again
Well, I’m back from the liquor store
Your clothes were lying on the floor
He’s locked behind the bathroom door
I tried to be a man
Well, help me lord!
Jealousy’s a two-edged sword!
I’d love to let you look in more
Than I can understand
Ohh ohh ohh…
