Don't be angry if I seem rude each time we meet
Someone that you once knew
That you say used to be so close to you
It's just that I'm so afraid
Someone might steal you away
I'd lose my mind
And I can't help myself, the way I feel sometimes
I'm the jealous kind

It was alright when I first met you
I didn't mind
But now things have changed
I'm just not the same and now I find
I want you all to myself
I don't want to share you with nobody else
You must forgive me, for the way I act sometimes
I'm the jealous kind

If you only knew how much it hurts to hear you say
How you can't forget
That before we met, those were the good old days
Why must you hurt me so
I can't take it no more

And I'm really tryin'
And I can't help myself, the way I act sometimes
I'm the jealous kind

I'm the jealous kind
