Jealous eyes And she said He’d be sorry that he never understood, never loved her like he could And now she’s gone, and she is gone for good They fell in love at seventeen, a picture perfect memory When he was kind and she was free like all good lovers ought to be But time would tell the truth beneath The smile he once wore But won’t anymore He was out of his mind, might as well have been blind Seeing only what he wanted to see through his Jealous eyes.
