Love is cold hard & cruel on the way down
When a man just don't want you, no part of you around
Love is cold hard & cruel on the way down, all the way down

I ain't no soldier-ain't no savior-ain't no winner
And I ain't that proud
I am just a woman-a jealous woman-who wants to love you
Love you out loud
She is so pretty, she is a beauty
She is a lady, laughin' in the clouds

[Chorus]
Jealousy-look what you've done to me
Jealousy-look what you've done
Jealousy-look what you've done to me
Now she's loving you not me

If I could take back-you know I would take back
Every mistake-in my face
I would try harder-try and be stronger
I would love longer-in every way
But she is so lovely, she's like a painting
In the garden, I can't catch my breath

[Chorus]
Love is cold hard & cruel on the way down
When a man just don't want you, no part of you around
Love is cold hard and cruel on the way down
Yeah, all the way down
