A Jealous Man

It’s hard to accept truth It can make your body shiver and ache She doesn’t want to catch your eye She doesn’t want to identify with you She doesn’t want to embrace you Your being a jealous man It’s tough not being able to attract what you want To be green with envy and the heart turns black She doesn’t want to experience life with you She doesn’t want to lock with you She doesn’t want to become one with you We all need someone To ensure us that someone can be are missing half She doesn’t want to go through life trials with you She doesn’t want to cry with you She doesn’t want to comfort you My friend I know I can see the hurt in your expressions Seeing her with someone else, It’s eating you You feel like there is no one else You thought there was a connection, you thought wrong She doesn’t want to be your queen She doesn’t want you to be her king She doesn’t want to grow old with you She doesn’t want to die beside you She doesn’t want to be the angel that guides you Yeah, I’m a Jealous man
