Lyrics for Song: Jealousy
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Robbie Williams
No poppy, nor mandragora,
Nor all the drowsy syrups of the east,
Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep
Which thou owedst yesterday.
To sing 'Jealousy' tonight, would you please welcome Robbie Williams
At dead of night,
When strangers roam
The streets in search of anyone who'll take them home
I lie alone,
The clock strikes three
And anyone who wanted to could contact me
At dead of night,
'Til break of day
Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake
It's much too late
Where've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch?
You know I could have tried to see your point of view
Could not hear or see
For jealousy
I never knew
Time passed so slow
I wish I'd never met you,
More than I could dare to let you go
At dead of night,
'Til break of day
Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake
It's much too late
Where've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch?
You know I could have tried to see your point of view
Could not hear or see
For jealousy
(Where've you been?
Who've you seen? )
You didn't phone when you said you would!
(Do you lie?
Do you try)
To keep in touch?
You know I could have tried to see your point of view
Could not hear or see
For jealousy
(Jealousy
Jealousy...)
Who've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch?
You know I could have tried to see your point of view
Could not hear or see
For jealousy
(Where've you been?)
Who've you seen?
You never phoned when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch?
You know I could have tried to see your point of view
Could not hear or see
For jealousy
I never knew 'til I met you

Jealousy
Robbie Williams' 'Jealousy' stands as a defining track from his early career, capturing the raw emotion of heartbreak with a distinct pop-rock sensibility. Released during a pivotal era for the artist, the song showcases his signature blend of melodic hooks and lyrical vulnerability, themes that would characterize much of his subsequent discography. The recording reflects the vibrant energy of the late 1990s and early 2000s UK music scene, where Williams emerged as a leading figure in the Britpop and modern pop landscape. Its enduring appeal lies in its ability to articulate universal feelings of insecurity and longing, cementing its place within his catalog of work that balances commercial success with personal expression. |
