Lyrics

Jealous Guy

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You want to sleep and I do too

But I can't because I've got something to prove

I should be flattered that you feel like this

Satisfied by just a goodnight kiss

I can't sleep because I've started to question

Whether your ex-boyfriends let you get this much resting

I'm not going to let you sleep

I'm pulling on blankets and tugging on sheets

In the morning you'll still be here

But you're sleeping now, you've made that clear

I should be flattered that it's come to this

Where you're satisfied by just a goodnight kiss

I'm not going to let you sleep

I'm pulling on blankets and tugging on sheets

I'm not going to admit defeat

I'm pulling on blankets and tugging on sheets

You're asleep, I wish I was too

But I can't because I've got something to prove

I tried to wake you with a really loud cough

I accidentally set your alarm clock off

I can't sleep because I've started to question

Whether your ex-boyfriends let you get this much resting

I'm not willing to admit defeat

I'm pulling on blankets and tugging on sheets

In the morning you'll still be here

But you're sleeping now, you've made that clear

I should be flattered that it's come to this

Where you're satisfied by just a goodnight kiss

I'm not going to admit defeat

I'm pulling on blankets and tugging on sheets

I'm not going to let you sleep

I'm pulling on blankets and tugging on sheets

I should be flattered that it's come to this

Where you're satisfied by just a goodnight kiss

In the morning you'll still be here

But you're sleeping now, you've made that clear

I'm not going to admit defeat

I'm pulling on blankets and tugging on sheets
