Jealousy
Robbie Williams & Pet Shop Boys Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

At dead of night, when strangers roam
The streets in search of anyone who'll take them home
I lie alone, the clock strikes three
And anyone who wanted to could contact me
At dead of night, 'till break of day
Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake
It's much too late
Where've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch? You know you could
I've tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy

I never knew time pass so slow
I wish I'd never met you, or that I could bear to let you go
At dead of night, 'till break of day
Endless thoughts and questions keep me awake
It's much too late

Where've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch? You know you could
I've tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy
Where've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch? You know you could
I've tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy

Where've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch? You know you could
I've tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy
Where've you been?
Who've you seen?
You didn't phone when you said you would!
Do you lie?
Do you try
To keep in touch? You know you could
I've tried to see your point of view
But could not hear or see
For jealousy





I never knew 'til I met you

Overall Meaning

that love could be so all-consuming and overwhelming. But now, as I lay in bed in the dead of night, my mind is racing with thoughts of you. Who have you been with? Where have you been? Why didn't you call me when you said you would? The jealousy and suspicion eats away at me, and I wish I could just let go and move on. But I can't. The clock strikes three, and still, I can't sleep.


The lyrics of "Jealousy" by Robbie Williams and Pet Shop Boys explore the themes of love, longing, and jealousy. The song speaks to the feelings of insecurity that often arise in a relationship, especially when trust has been broken. The singer is consumed by thoughts of their partner and plagued by questions about where they've been and who they've been with. Despite their efforts to see things from their partner's point of view, their jealousy prevents them from being able to fully understand and trust them.


Overall, the song is a powerful reminder of the importance of communication and trust in a relationship. Without these things, jealousy and mistrust can spiral out of control and destroy the love that once existed.
