These Are the Roots

I'm jealous of the rain
 That falls upon your skin
 It's closer than my hands have been
 Jealous of the rain
 I'm jealous of the wind
 That ripples through your clothes
 It's closer than your shadow
 Oh, I'm jealous of the wind
 I wished you the best of
 All this world could give
 And I told you when you left me
 There's nothing to forgive
 But I always thought you'd come back
 Tell me, all you found was
 Heartbreak and misery
 It's hard for me to say
 I'm jealous of the way
 You're happy without me
 Jealous of the nights
 That I don't spend with you
 I'm wondering who you lay next to
 Oh, I'm jealous of the nights
 Jealous of the love
 Love that was in here
 Gone for someone else to share
 Oh, I'm jealous of the love
 I wished you the best of
 All this world could give
 And I told you when you left me
 There's nothing to forgive
 But I always thought you'd come back
 Tell me, all you found was
 Heartbreak and misery
 It's hard for me to say
 I'm jealous of the way
 You're happy without me
 As I sink
 In the sand
 Watch you slip
 Through my hands
 Oh, as I die here another day
 Cuz all I do is cry behind this smile
 I wished you the best of
 All this world could give
 And I told you when you left me
 There's nothing to forgive
 Always thought you'd come back
 Tell me, all you found was
 Heartbreak and misery
 It's hard for me to say
 I'm jealous of the way
 You're happy without me
 It's hard for me to say
 I'm jealous of the way
 You're happy without me
