Jealous Heart
Love Lost: Battling the Pain of a Jealous Heart
Lyrics
Jealous Heart oh jealous heart stop beating
Expressing a plea for the jealous heart to cease its beating.
can't you see the damage you have done?
Questioning the heart about the awareness of the harm it has caused.
You have driven her away forever
Noting that the jealousy has driven someone away permanently.
Jealous heart now I'm the lonely one
Acknowledging personal loneliness as a consequence of the jealous heart.
I was part of everything she planned for
Reflecting on being a part of the person's plans and feeling loved initially.
And I know she loved me at the start
Asserting that there was love at the beginning.
Now she hates the sight of all I stand for
Expressing that the person now despises everything associated with the speaker.
All because of you oh jealous heart
Attributing the rift to the actions of the jealous heart.
Jealous heart why did I let you rule me
Questioning the choice of allowing the jealous heart to dominate.
When I knew the end would bring me pain
Acknowledging that the outcome would inevitably be painful.
Now she's gone, she's gone and found another
Realizing that the loved one has moved on to someone else.
Oh I'll never see my love again
Expressing the sorrow of never reuniting with the lost love.
Through the years here memory will haunt me
Anticipating that the memories will continue to haunt over the years.
Even though we?re many miles apart
Despite the physical distance, the memories remain poignant.
It's so hard to know she'll never want me
Expressing the difficulty of accepting that the person will never return.
Cause she heard your beating jealous heart
Blaming the jealous heart for causing the loved one to leave.
Many times I trusted you to guide me
Expressing trust in the jealous heart, but it led to tears instead of guidance.
But your guiding only brought me tears
Pondering the reason for having the jealous heart within.
Why oh why must I have you inside me
Rhetorically questioning the necessity of harboring the jealous heart.
Jealous heart for all my lonely years
Attributing years of loneliness to the presence of the jealous heart.
