This song was originally written by Marina, for her first album The Family Jewels, but was not included in the final tracklist.
Marina has said that her first album was not going to be about love and heartbreak because she didn’t find that theme important at the time. It also didn’t fit the record,...
[Verse 1]
I'm embarrassed to confess
I am a jealous girlfriend
I want you to belong to me
But I think they call that jealousy
[Pre-Chorus]
I never say a word in case I come off needy
I never say a word, leave you before you leave me
[Chorus]
What is taking over me?
Jealousy
A bubbling inside of me
It's jealousy
Controlling me
It's coming after me
It's so easy
When you don't belong to me
[Verse 2]
Is it you or is it me?
When you talk about beauty
Makes me feel so ugly
But I think they call that jealousy
[Pre-Chorus]
I never say a word in case I come off needy
I never say a word, leave you before you leave me
[Chorus]
What is taking over me?
Jealousy
A bubbling inside of me
It's jealousy
Controlling me
It's coming after me
It's so easy
When you don't belong to me
[Bridge]
I think I'm fine, I think I'm tough
Untill I go and fall in love
I always try hard to conceal
But the more I hide the worse I feel
[Chorus]
What is taking over me?
Jealousy
A bubbling inside of me
It's jealousy
Controlling me
It's coming after me
It's so easy
When you don't belong to me
[Outro]
Jealousy
It's jealousy
Jealousy
It's jealousy
