Jealous of the Sky (Stripped)

[Verse 1]

Never seen a Cadillac that long move that slow

Or people on a Tuesday afternoon in Sunday clothes

I held it in like a solider

Too scared to let it show

They say, "Keep your head up"

That ain't helpin' me at all

[Chorus]

You get to be blue and grey

You don't mind the season change

You can shine all the time

Like it's just another day

Let the rain out when you feel like you wanna cry

Now you get to say hello while I gotta say goodbye

I'm jealous of the sky

[Verse 2]

Lately, I just shake my fists

And cuss your name out loud

While you're up there, high and mighty

Always lookin' down

And people check on me from time to time

'Cause it don't seem real

But you don't know where I'm comin' from

'Cause you can't even feel

[Chorus]

You get to be blue and grey

You don't mind the season change

You can shine all the time

Like it's just another day

Let the rain out when you feel like you wanna cry

Now you get to say hello while I gotta say goodbye

I'm jealous of the sky

[Bridge]

Well, you oughta be ashamed

Yeah, you got your moon and stars

So why'd you have to go and take mine away?

[Chorus]

You get to be blue and grey

You don't mind the season change

You can shine all the time

Like it's just another day

Let the rain out when you feel like you wanna cry

And if I was more like you right now, I'd be alright

But you get to say hello while I gotta say goodbye

I'm jealous of the sky

Yeah, I'm jealous of the sky, mmm
