Jealous Darlin’
[Verse 1]
Jealous darlin' that you are you think you know me
You don’t trust me half as far as you can throw me
You know I cheated on someone to get to you
But running round is something only you can make me do
Jealousy's another way of saying I love you
Jealous darlin' I’m jealous of you too
[Verse 2]
Jealous darlin' keep an eye on me
Birds in cages know you love them butterflies are free
If I get restless don't you let me very far from you
Jealous darlin' I'm jealous of you too
[Verse 3]
Jealous darlin' you don't know how much I treasure
Every smile and every touch and every pleasure
Now when it comes to living life you know I'm weak
Someone else just looks at me and I’m afraid to speak
You hold on to me sweetheart and I’ll hang on to you
Jealous darlin' I’m jealous of you too
Jealous darlin' I'm jealous of you too
