lyrics

What’s her name?
Does she even have a face?
What does she do?
Maybe an actress in L.A.?

Jealous guy
and I am breathing smoke
Suffocating on the fire, getting mileage on desire
the air makes you choke

I am not afraid of her
she doesn’t know me
I am not in danger
I consider myself free

You took a trip
I felt like you were getting sick
You felt like you were getting old, your face out in the cold
you’re too used to it

But I’m not ready to leave, my work here’s not done
I think it’s honorable, babe - you found new way and
life out in the sun

I am not afraid of her
she does not know me
I am not in danger
I consider myself free

If it’s not me, I’m happy for you
If it’s not me I hope she’s happy too
I never wanna hate another woman
Just because she’s out there livin’

I never wanna hate another woman
Just because she accidentally saw you on the street
It happened to me
