Two shots of jealousy Songtext

Julian Dawson - Two shots of jealousy

When a siren goes in the middle of the night
My breathing stops I fumble for the light
My heart is a hammer and my stomach is stone
I'd call for assistance but nobody is home

That's when I need you and when you're not there
I have to move but I don't know where
This world's not big enough for me to hide
It's two shots of jealousy and one shot of pride

I admit I suppose I live too much for love
But now at last I've found it I can't give it up
I have too many pictures and too many plans
I just can't lose you to another man

Because I need you but I just don't know
If I should move - where should I go
It's a full-time job keeping this hurt inside
It's two shots of jealousy and one shot of pride

She says more with her hands than I could say in a book
She can capture a heart with a single look
She's putting on make-up but it's not for me
And she cries when she tells me she needs to be free

But I need you and I'll try to be strong
Whatever I do it seems to turn out wrong
I can't shake this feeling heaven knows I've tried
It's two shots of jealousy and one shot of pride

I didn't want trouble don't want your sympathy
I want to believe all the promises you made to me
My heart is a hammer and my stomach is stone
I'd call for assistance but nobody is home

That's why I need you and when you're not there
I'm bound to move but I don't know where
This world's not big enough for me to hide
With two shots of jealousy and one shot of pride
