Jealousy, `twas only through jealousy Our hearts were broken, and angry words were spoken, Now all I have is memory to cherish so tenderly With every token you have given to me I loved too well for I doubted you in my heart My life was hell every moment we were apart Why did I make that big mistake I wronged you right from the start `Twas all over my jealousy My crime was my blind jealousy My heart was afire with desire for you But I never thought that your love was true You gave all your kisses to me But now, all too late, I can see The heartaches I cost you, no wonder I lost you `Twas all over my jealousy You gave all your kisses to me But now, all too late, I can see The heartaches I cost you, no wonder I lost you `Twas all over my jealousy `Twas all over my jealousy
