jealous heart

dolly parton

mine is a jealous heart

imagines things that never are

builds a fire from a tiny spark

but that's the way of a jealous heart

sunny skies and a rosy bed

thorns and storm clouds up ahead

'cause suddenly the sky turns dark

for those of us with a jealous heart

imagination runnin' wild

like a frantic frightened child

any time that we're apart

i can't control my jealous heart

and you know mine is a jealous heart

and every hurt leaves a lasting scar

don't you hate yourself for the fool you are

when you're cursed with a jealous heart

i love you more than words can tell

one day's heaven two days hell

suspicious words like poison darts

spoken from my jealous heart

mine is a jealous heart

imagines things that never are

builds a fire from a tiny spark

but that's the way of a jealous heart

and you know mine

you know mine is a jealous heart

and every hurt

and every hurt leaves a lasting scar

don't you hate yourself for the fool you are

when you're cursed with a jealous heart

and you know mine

you know mine is a jealous heart

imagines things

imagines things that never are

builds a fire from a tiny spark

but that's the way of a jealous heart
