Lyrics
Jealousy is killin' me, it's too much to dismiss
I don't wanna die, but I don't wanna live like this
Honestly, I'd rather be asleep, not feel a thing
I don't like how it goes, but I still go there, I'll admit
And baby, baby, it's hard to see a way out
(Compare myself to many men)
It's hard to see a way out
(Many nights spent hating on them)
It's hard for me to see a way out (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Now and then, I'm alright, in the end
When misery is running me and ruling how I feel
I'm not satisfied, I need a change of pace for real
I'm on my feet, I'm semi-clean
I'm miles from where I've been
I'm missing you tonight, I hope you're cosy in the sheets
But girl, when I act like this, it isn't fair, no
You know I do it when I'm feeling scared
Baby, I'm stressing out, pulling out my hair, yeah
And I'm imagining the worst
But the worst never comes, I'm aware (ah)
I hope you're sleeping well (I do)
I hope you're sleeping well, oh
I hope you're sleeping well, over there
I'm thinking of you, hoping you're in peace
Hope you know, just how much I care
I really hope you're sleeping well
I'm excited just for waking up and to see how your night sleep was
Breakfast, dawn, I stretch and yawn
I'll start the day by texting you
"Good morning babe, how you feeling?"
I wish that I had woken next to you, but either way
I'm happy just to see your name appearing on my phone
I get that feeling once again, and then my smile starts to grow
Now, I'm thinking through what to say
Yeah, I get jealous as fuck, and no, it doesn't feel great
But I'm still with you and that's all that I can know right now, hey
Tomorrow might not be here
I swear that I can make a change
Why waste the time we have my dear, I'll make a change
No need for jealousy today
I hope you sleep well, my babe
Goodnight
