The green-eyed monster has me again
Like a light I can't look away from
Strangers become my only friends
With a little vodka and rum
When my house looks like a crime scene
And the music dies down
I'm left a lonely queen
Without her emerald crown
Chorus:
I keep staring out into the night
Because no matter what I do
I can't look away from that green light
I could have it all if I just had you
I'm jealous of the city
She whispers your name
Swallowed you completely
Like a glass of champagne
The water tells me to move on
But the stars keep coming out
Every night before dawn
They tell me it's any day now
Chorus
How can you tell me to stop dreaming
When it's not even day yet?
I still hope for redeeming
With every promise I kept
Chorus x2
