Jealous ones

By Juan Carlos Diaz

Tap tap tap

The tears of

A billion lovers past and

Present crash against the windowpanes

Trying to break in and steal what

You and I have in between the sheets

Oh yes those forlorn tears of

Lovers long gone trying to

Get straight to us

Just listen to the sound of

Their angry tears bouncing

Desperately on the outside of our home

BOOM!

Do you hear that? Babe,

Now they’re groaning in

Frustration because their bitter

And hateful tears can’t touch us

Ha the weatherman says it’s just

A bad thunderstorm outside but he

Doesn’t have the slightest clue of

The wars we’d faced to find

Each other and the jealous ones in pursuit
