i can't complain about the way we tried, so maybe it's time to say goodbye, not gonna look around i'm just gonna look away. don't put the reasons back in my head, you say you loved me now you've left me for dead, oh i just can't stand it this way. oh jealousy, coming over me, it's that jealousy, breaking my heart. whoa jealousy, taking control of me, now ya just gotta know, that i can't let it go, and it's time that ya knew, i can't stop loving you.
you say i'm a sentimental fool, but all i tried to do is go with you, not gonna look around i'm just gonna look away. it's been a battle since you broke my heart, i tell you now that it's been coming down hard, oh i just can't stand another day.
oh how wrong can you be? oh to fall in love was my very first mistake how was i to know i was far too much in love to see? oh jealousy look at me now jealousy you got me somehow you gave me no warning took me by surprise jealousy you led me on you couldn't lose you couldn't fail you had suspicion on my trail
how how how all my jealousy i wasn't man enough to let you hurt my pride now i'm only left with my own jealousy
oh how strong can you be with matters of the heart? life is much too short to while away with tears if only you could see just what you do to me oh jealousy you tripped me up jealousy you brought me down you bring me sorrow you cause me pain jealousy when will you let go? gotta hold of my possessive mind turned me into a jealous kind
how how how all my jealousy i wasn't man enough to let you hurt my pride now i'm only left with my own jealousy but now it matters not if i should live or die 'cause i'm only left with my own jealousy
