You text him every hour when you're not with him

Wanna know just who he's with and where he's been

You drive by late at night, making sure he's home

You know it's wrong, but how else will you know?

You keep a close eye on him when you go out

Hanging on his neck when pretty girls come round

Make sure they don't turn his head, he's yours and what's yours you protect

I know you think that's love, but girl you're at mercy of

Old jealousy, got you so deep

Doing things you'd never dream you'd do

Twists your sound mind, no sense no pride

Tells you you can't make love stay

While you're pushing it away

Oh, jealousy

That's exactly how I came to true love

Thinking I could keep him mine if I held on tight enough

All the [?] that love can bring, yeah I watched it die, I watched him leave

I learned the hard way all because, I was at the mercy of

Old jealousy, got you so deep

Doing things you'd never dream you'd do

Twists your sound mind, no sense no pride

Tells you you can't make love stay

While you're pushing it away

That's jealousy

Oh-oh, whoa

Oh-oh-oh, yeah, that's jealousy

Ooh, you're acting without thinking, believing

That all your suspicions are true

But the truth is you're possessed

By a green-eyed witch who looks like you

Old jealousy

Old jealousy

Twists your sound mind, no sense no pride

Tells you you can't make love stay

While you're pushing it away

That's jealousy

Oh-whoa-whoa

That's jealousy

Oh-ooh

Yeah, it twists your, your sound mind, no sense no pride

Oh, that's jealousy
