You're jealous
You just can't stand to see me get along without you
Like I do, you told me to
Now you're jealous
You don't know how hard it was to be alone without you
And wanting you like I do

I would've stayed if you'd wanted, would've been willing
But you said I treat you so badly, I can't be forgiven
You know I would've done anything to make it through with you
But I don't deserve to be lonely just 'cause you say I do

You're jealous
You don't know how hard it is to be a woman in love with you
When you're so cruel
And so jealous
You don't think about anybody's feelings but your own
Oh, are you coming home?

I would've stayed if you'd wanted, would've been willing
But you said I treat you so badly, I can't be forgiven
You know I would've done anything to make it through with you
But I don't deserve to be lonely just 'cause you say I do

So if you're gonna go you've gotta go, and if you're staying, stay
'Cause I can't take the pain you keep leaving when you go away
If you're gonna go you've gotta go, and if you're staying, stay
'Cause I can't take the pain you keep leaving when you go away

I don't deserve to be so lonely
I don't deserve to cry, ooh
I don't deserve to be so lonely

    this has to be one of my favorite songs on the cd "faith and courage" (which i also think is her best) brings me to tears almost everytime.
