[Verse 1]
I take it all back, all that I said
It comes out too fast, so I
Just couldn't help the way that I felt
I started the fire
Watching you walk, I followed you there
Standing too close, it's hurting
I pictured the words, the warmth of your breath
I started the fire, it's burning
[Chorus]
And it feels like jealousy
And it feels like I can't breathe
And I'm on, down on my knees
And it feels like jealousy
[Verse 2]
Seein' a light, a face in the crowd
My lonely heart is racing
And my whole world is under attack
What kinda love am I facing?
Is it me that you want?
'Cause it's me you can have
Can you give me an answer?
I'm tired of waiting, I'm tired of thinking
[Chorus]
And it feels like jealousy
And it feels like I can't breathe
And I'm on, down on my knees
And it feels like jealousy
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, woah, oh, oh
[Bridge]
I'm tired of waiting
I'm tired of thinking
And all this feeling taking over me
[Chorus]
And it feels like jealousy (Ah-ah, ooh)
And it feels like I can't breathe (I can't breathe)
And I'm on, down on my knees (Ooh)
And it feels like jealousy
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, woah, oh, oh
And it feels (Ooh)
[Outro]
No
And I'm on, down on my knees
And it feels like jealousy
