Jealous Kind Of Love Lyrics

Oh! a love that makes you blue,
is a love that isn't true.
Oh! the only love I knew,
was a jealous kind of love

Oh a jealous kind of love,
Oh a jealous kind of love.
you know what I'm thinking of,
its just a jealous kind of love.

Oh A love that makes you sad
is a love that must be bad.
Oh the only love I've had,
is a jealous kind of love.

Oh! a jealous kind of love,
a jealous kind of love
you know what I'm thinking of,
its just a jealous kind of love.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

No comments? Wow, I guess I just discovered this song at the perfect time..

"The jealous kind of love" can be the most confusing/heartbreaking kind EVER! You never know if you are truly missing the person, or if it is simply your turning green with envy because they are seeing someone new. You don't want to admit that you are beating yourself up over something as silly as jealousy, (you're so above that, right?) But sometimes the fact of the matter is that what TRULY bugs you is that they are happily seeing someone..and you aren't.

Amazing song, it's honestly helping me so much right now--a nice, light take on a rather heavy and quite depressing situation!
