Jealousy is a sin

You lock me up
you can't cage me in,
'cos to my need for freedom
I'll have to give in.

i know this will hurt
but now you must see
there is a big problem,
it's your jealousy.

I understand your reasons
i know it's from love
but I'm not your possession
set me free like a dove.

leave me to fly
let me spread my wings
because it's only your name
my heart always sings.

we need to be sure
please give me your trust
'cos then I'll know
this is more than just lust.

how do i tell you
you're closing me in?
but this you must know
to be jealous, is a sin.

it seems such a shame
you're a beautiful man
but this ugly green eyed monster of yours
i don't understand.

if you love me then love me,
but please let me know
do you love me enough
to just let me to go?

only you have the answers
why you're acting so strange,
why do i feel trapped like this
it has to change.

I am my own person
don't treat me this way
or when the door of my cage opens
I'll take my chance
I'll seize the day.....

to never look back

I'll just fly away.
