Jealous Lover

Lyrics for Jealous Lover

Listen to me Ooh, ooh Yeah, yeah You said you'd let me live my life No fetters and no chains I believed your every word Now your tune has changed One day after coffee You fixed me with a stare And said, "Where were you on Friday night? Tell me who was there?" Well, the only problem is The only problem is You're such a part of me Yeah Hands off jealous lover Please let me be You pray like a mantis You're emerald green Hands off jealous lover The joke's right on me You're clinging like ivy You're choking a tree (That's right) We were once so generous Sharing secrets of the heart Now the fruit is turning sour Got a bad taste in my mouth Can't control the ocean You can't control the waves Can't control the shadows Flickering in my cave But there's just one thing Well, there's just one thing They'll only be a half of me, yeah Hands off jealous lover Please let me be Your eyes full of envy And you're emerald green Hands off jealous lover Your words harsh and mean You pray like a mantis You're feeding off me Let it go, let it go, let it go, now Let it go, let it go, let it go, now Come on (let it go, let it go, let it go) Hand off me (let it go, let it go, let it go) You got to let me go, baby Let it go, let it go, let it go (let it go, yeah) Let it go, let it go, let it go Come on, come on, baby, yeah Hands off jealous lover Please let me be You pray like a mantis And you're emerald green Hands off jealous lover The joke's right on me The pearls 'round your neck They don't make you a queen Hands off jealous lover Please let me be Your eyes are so cutting You're my own guillotine Hands off jealous lover Your words harsh and mean You pray like a mantis You're feeding off me
