Check out the fantastic new logo!
Tuesday was prompt day from Matt The Book Blogger, and I was a little tied up to manage to post straight away last night, so here is my attempt this week!
Check out the prompt here.
This week the prompt song is Labyrinth’s Jealous.
I sat here listening to the words… really listening. What a song! I know it’s a sad one, but I loved it!
Jealous
Sitting here watching you smiling…
Happy…
Happier than you ever were with me.
Why couldn’t I give you that happiness?
Still, I can’t moan, I can’t hold it against you.
But I still feel it… jealousy.
There. I said it.
Jealous.
I never realised that all you wanted was that extra affection.
I regret all those times I shrugged your arm off my shoulders, or refused to hold your hand in public.
It was never that I was ashamed. I just felt trapped, almost.
Does that make sense?
And that trap, of my own making, lost you.
I miss you…
I hope you enjoyed my take!

Captures well all the complexity of a relationship, the missed opportunities, the unspoken. Very soulful!

Great take on this song Ritu! The lyrics make me think of a combo of Alejandro Sanz’ “Quisiera Ser”, Take That’s “Back for Good” and Bruno Mars “When I was your man”

Listened to the song while reading your words…. that is really sad. You conveyed it very good, this feeling of regret for something that is not possible to make undone, no possibility of another chance.
