lyrics
You walk in the room and,
All eyes are on you.
Don’t have to say a word,
Everybody wants you.
I’m hidden in your shadow,
They look right through me.
I’m easily forgettable,
With you that’s all I’ll ever be.
The green-eyed monster turns my heart to stone,
Breathing rumors that I’ll always be alone.
I close my eyes to this tainted reverie,
There lies no truth in my deprecating jealousy.
You hook ‘em with those blue eyes,
There’s no escaping.
Your laughter starts to fill the air,
Your charm is captivating.
You see who falls the hardest,
Soon you’ll be falling,
Into the hole you dug yourself,
You left no room for happy endings.
I’m seeing green,
I don’t know why.
I wouldn't want to be you even if I could
I close my mind to this tainted reverie
There lies no truth to my jealousy.
All eyes are on you.
Don’t have to say a word,
Everybody wants you.
I’m hidden in your shadow,
They look right through me.
I’m easily forgettable,
With you that’s all I’ll ever be.
The green-eyed monster turns my heart to stone,
Breathing rumors that I’ll always be alone.
I close my eyes to this tainted reverie,
There lies no truth in my deprecating jealousy.
You hook ‘em with those blue eyes,
There’s no escaping.
Your laughter starts to fill the air,
Your charm is captivating.
You see who falls the hardest,
Soon you’ll be falling,
Into the hole you dug yourself,
You left no room for happy endings.
I’m seeing green,
I don’t know why.
I wouldn't want to be you even if I could
I close my mind to this tainted reverie
There lies no truth to my jealousy.
