"Jealous Girl" lyrics

Jealous Girl

We all saw your plans to win
His desperate heart
Hands of slik
Pulled me and him far apart
The twin that tied each and everyone
Has all been frayed
It's all undone
In high-heels you run into a night
That calls your name
Woah-oh-oh-oh

Jealous girl, jealous girl
What have you done?
I won't live in a jealous would
With anyone
Can't you let your boyfriend be himself
Sweet jealous girl, oh jealous girl?
Only one you're hurting baby is yourself
Sweet jealous girl

I know now
Even more then before
You gotta hold friends high
Some remember what they have
When they wave bye-bye
I hope in time
Much sooner then years
We can make that climb
And dry those tears
And sit down face to face
Without the gaze
Of jealous eyes
Woah-oh-oh-oh

Jealous girl, jealous girl
What have you done?
I won't live in a jealous would
With anyone
Can't you let your boyfriend be himself
Sweet jealous girl, oh jealous girl?
Only one you're hurting baby is yourself
Sweet jealous girl
J-j-j-jealous girl

It's been three years
Since you took my friend
He's been gone for good
I'm just sad
That I don't even miss him
Like I thought I would
At least he's got
Someone on his right
To walk him through
The wheezy night
And when he starts to see the light
Just tell him "It's ok honey, it's alright"
Awoah-oh-oh-oh

Jealous girl, jealous girl
What have you done?
I won't live in a jealous would
With anyone
Can't you let your boyfriend be himself
Sweet jealous girl, oh jealous girl?
Only one you're hurting baby is yourself
Sweet jealous girl
J-j-j-jealous girl
J-j-j-jealous girl
