Jealousy

I open the door
I turn on the lights
I can feel it in my bones
Something just isn't right

The room smells like a cigarette
And your hair looks a mess
And didn't you think I'd notice
All the wrinkles in your dress?

And I look in your eyes
I can tell something's wrong
There's no use in denying, girl
I've known you too long

There's something going on
I'm not sure what it is
But let me tell you
It's my business if it's his

Jealousy
Got a hold on me
And this foolish heart won't let it be
I can almost see his face as he's kissing you
And I can't control my jealousy

When you answer the phone
Are you really alone?
It's like I'm talking to a stranger
Do you think I don't know?

You say, "He's just a friend"
And I try my best to understand
I'm a man and I know men
So don't you ask me to pretend

I'm all for liberation
And I'm all for being fair
And I'm all for doing what it takes
To show how much I care

But you've pushed me too far
Got my back against the wall
And it's no big surprise to you
There's a limit, after all

And jealousy
Got a hold on me
And my foolish heart won't let me be
No matter what I do, these crazy thoughts won't let me be
I can't control my jealousy
Jealousy, no, no!

I've broken hearts a time or two
So I guess it's only fair
You did to me what I did to them
Now you don't seem to care

But life still goes on
We both will survive
And if you can count this living, girl
I guess it's great to be alive

Jealousy
Got a hold on me
And my foolish heart won't let me be
It looks like this must be my destiny
I can't control my jealousy
Jealousy, yeah

Jealousy
Got a hold on me
And my foolish heart just can't let it be
I can move the biggest mountain, girl
That much I can do
But I can't control my jealousy - not for you, no!

Jealousy
Got a hold on me

Jealousy
Got a hold on me
I can't control my jealousy
Can't control my jealousy

Jealousy
Got a hold on me
