Jealousy - The Films

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…
