She, she's singin' louder than the radio
Yeah, she, she thinks she's hitting those Mariah notes
Oh she, she turns the world into her own runway
Yeah, she don't need no makeup on her pretty face
Innocent, effortless, confident
When I look at her and look at me
If I really tell you honestly
I been dealing with some jealousy
Of the girl that I used to be
Before the world became a scary place
I didn't need to hope for better days
Yeah, I been dealing with some jealousy
Of the girl that I used to be
She, she's making flowers out of dandelions
Yeah, she, she's finding beauty in the simple life
Oh she, she's dancing right across the awkward stage
Yeah, she, she's picking colors for the next blank page
Oblivious, spontaneous, radiant
When I look at her and look at me
If I really tell you honestly
I been dealing with some jealousy
Of the girl that I used to be
Before the world became a scary place
I didn't need to hope for better days
Yeah, I been dealing with some jealousy
Of the girl that I used to be
I been dealing with some jealousy
Jealousy
I been dealing with some jealousy
Jealousy
In my lilac bedroom
Counting all the stars glowing in the dark
Oh, the days of my youth
Slipping from my hands they're still in my heart
In that lilac bedroom
Times were never hard, dreams were never far
She was something special
She was something special
When I look at her and look at me
If I really tell you honestly
I been dealing with some jealousy
Of the girl that I used to be
Before the world became a scary place
I didn't need to hope for better days
Yeah, I been dealing with some jealousy (Jealousy)
Of the girl that I used to be
I been dealing with some jealousy
Jealousy
I been dealing with some jealousy
Jealousy
