Jealous Heart lyrics

Jealous heart oh jealous heart stop beating can't you see the damage you have done
You have driven him away forever jealous heart now I'm the lonely one
I was part of everything he planned for and I know he loved me at the start
Now he hates the sight of all I stand for all because of you oh jealous heart
You have filled my conscience full of sorrow for I know he never was untrue
Jealous heart why did you make him hate me now there's nothing left but jealous you
Many times I trusted you to guide me but your guiding only brought me tears
Why oh why must I have you inside me jealous heart for all my lonely years
Jealous heart why did I let you rule me when I knew the end would bring me pain
Now he's gone he's gone and found another oh I'll never see my love again
Through the years his memory will haunt me even though we're many miles apart
It's so hard to know he'll never want me cause he heard your beating jealous heart
