http://www.reverbnation.com/artwhimsicallyyoursstudio/song/20003435-jealous-eyes Yeah, I went out with the guys again and yeah, I had a couple of drinks, But I’d never, ever go out on you babe, With a new love like you always think.
And I even smoked some cigarettes to relieve my workday stress, and I had those drinks to calm my nerves, before facing your unhappiness…..
Chorus-
You’ve got jealous eyes and they compromise, Our love when you’re sure I’ve told lies, You never talk about your past, But I’m learning quite fast, It must have been with some cheating kind of guys. I give you all I can but you damage what’s left, With your doubts about where I have been, But I won’t be a prisoner to insecure love, That kind of love quickly wears thin…….
Love is built upon trust, That expects both of us, To respect the commitments we share, Without constantly doubting And endlessly shouting about some non-existent affair……..
Chorus-
Don’t let your jealous eyes become compromise To our love when you think I’ve told lies, You never talk about your past, But I’m learning quite fast, It must have been with some cheating guys. I've given you all I can please don’t damage what’s left, With your doubts about where I have been, but I won't be a prisoner to insecure love, Cause that kind of love quickly wears thin…….
Please make sure it won’t happen again, cause you’re my love and you’re my dearest friend.

Hey Calvin, thanks for the listen and comment, This was a fun write, lots of chords I seldom play with and some deep thoughts. about overly loving and being possessive of another. Thanks again.~~Matt

Ain't it the truth.....and what a way of expressing it. That is one fine write.

This is written very beautifully. But I would shorten the chorus part just a little bit. If I were you. I like this lyric. Keep up the good work. A open door of opportunity awaits all of us. Believe in yourself, Dennis Wright

Matt, You put a lot of passion and emotion in this one. Almost like a first person account of a knockdown, drag out fight with the green-eyed monster. Except this monster has the woman you love in his clutches. I loved the way you pronounced "jealous", really spitting it out. Now I want to hear HER side of the story!! Job well done.
