Jealous Heart

Jealous Heart - Jean Shepard

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 above 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
