Ben Kweller - Jealous Girl lyrics

rate me

We all saw your plans to win his desperate heart

Hands of silk tied me and him far apart

Twine 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

Chorus:

Whoa Oh, Oh, oh,

Jealous girl, jealous girl

What have you done?

I won't live in a jealous world with anyone!

Can't you let your boyfriend be himself

Sweet jealous girl, oh jealous girl!

Only one you're hurtin baby is yourself

Sweet jealous girl!

I know now, even more than before

You gotta hold friends high

Some remember what they have when they wave bye, bye

I hope in time much sooner than years

we can make that climb and dry those tears

And sit down face to face

without the gaze of jealous eyes!

Chorus:

Whoa Oh, Oh, oh,

Jealous girl, jealous girl

What have you done?

I won't live in a jealous world with anyone!

Can't you let your boyfriend be himself

Sweet jealous girl, oh jealous girl!

Only one you're hurtin baby is yourself

Sweet 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 weezy night

And when he starts to see the light

Just tell him it's OK, honey! It's alright!

Chorus:

Oh, oh,

Jealous girl, jealous girl

What have you done?

I won't live in a jealous world with anyone!

Can't you let your boyfriend be himself

Sweet jealous girl, oh jealous girl!

Only one you're hurtin baby is yourself

Sweet jealous girl!

Jealous Girl

Whoa Oh, Oh, oh

Jealous Girl

Whoa Oh, Oh, oh

Only one you're hurtin baby is yourself

Jealous Girl

Whoa Oh, Oh, oh
