Jealousy

(album: Sometimes - 2020)

You text him every hour when you're not with him
Wanna know just who he's with and where he's been
You drive by late at night, making sure he's home
You know it's wrong, but how else will you know?

You keep a close eye on him when you go out
Hanging on his neck when pretty girls come round
Make sure they don't turn his head, he's yours and what's yours you protect
I know you think that's love, but girl you're at mercy of

Old jealousy, got you so deep
Doing things you'd never dream you'd do
Twists your sound mind, no sense no pride
Tells you you can't make love stay
While you're pushing it away
Oh, jealousy

That's exactly how I came to true love
Thinking I could keep him mine if I held on tight enough
All the [?] that love can bring, yeah I watched it die, I watched him leave
I learned the hard way all because, I was at the mercy of

Old jealousy, got you so deep
Doing things you'd never dream you'd do
Twists your sound mind, no sense no pride
Tells you you can't make love stay
While you're pushing it away
That's jealousy

Oh-oh, whoa
Oh-oh-oh, yeah, that's jealousy

Ooh, you're acting without thinking, believing
That all your suspicions are true
But the truth is you're possessed
By a green-eyed witch who looks like you

Old jealousy
Old jealousy

Twists your sound mind, no sense no pride
Tells you you can't make love stay
While you're pushing it away
That's jealousy
Oh-whoa-whoa
That's jealousy
Oh-ooh

Yeah, it twists your, your sound mind, no sense no pride
Oh, that's jealousy
