Love is cold hard & cruel on the way down 
when a man just don't want you, no part of you around 
Love is cold hard & cruel on the way down, all the way down 

I ain't no soldier-ain't no savior-ain't no winner 
And I ain't that proud 
I am just a woman-a jealous woman-who wants to love you 
love you out loud 
She is so pretty, she is a beauty 
She is a lady, laughin' in the clouds 

chorus: 
Jealousy-look what you've done to me 
Jealousy-look what you've done 
Jealousy-look what you've done to me
Now she's loving you not me 

If I could take back-you know I would take back 
every mistake-in my face 
I would try harder-try and be stronger 
I would love longer-in every way 
but she is so lovely, she's like a painting 
in the garden, I can't catch my breath 

(chorus) repeat

Love is cold hard & cruel on the way down 
when a man just don't want you, no part of you around 
Love is cold hard and cruel on the way down 
yeah all the way down
