Jealousy, jealousy.
Two o’clock in the morning,
I don’t see my love around.
You say you want to be with me, girl,
But you’re never to be found,
I know you’re seeing someone else
and it’s sending me insane.
Jealousy, taking me over and over again.
Jealousy, saying you love but inside you pretend.
You say I go on needlessly
finding wrong in all I see.
But I know in my heart from the start
you wanted to play, yeah.
You know I’m so alive with you.
Telling love with all you do.
I know I’m gonna drive your love away, away.
You were my inspiration.
You were the answer to my prayer.
A lover I could depend on and soften all my cares.
I can’t believe you’re out at night holding someone new.
Jealousy, taking me over and over again.
Jealousy, saying you love but inside you pretend.
You say I go on needlessly
finding wrong in everything I see.
But I knew in my heart from the start
that you wanted to play.
But you know I’m so alive with you.
Telling love with all you do.
I know I’m gonna drive your love away, away.
Jealousy, jealousy,
taking me over and over again.
Jealousy, saying you love but inside you pretend.
You say I go on needlessly
finding wrong in all I see.
I know in my heart from the start
that you wanted to play.
You know I’m so alive with you.
Telling love with all you do.
I know I’m gonna drive your love away.
Jealousy, jealousy,
taking me over and over again.
Jealousy, saying you love but inside you pretend.
Jealousy, taking me over and over again.
Jealousy, jealousy, taking me over and over.
Jealousy, I can’t help myself…
