--------------------------------------------- Music, Arrangement and Lyrics by Ravion-Jarlix ©2026 All rights reserved. --------------------------------------------- I sit in the quiet of a fading day, Silver hours, slow and grey. Across the street their laughter flies, Two young hearts with fearless eyes. They walk so close their shadows blend, Every road feels like a friend. I watch their world glow warm and true, A light I once was chasing too. Their hands don’t fear tomorrow’s storm, They move as if the night is kind. And in that glow, so bright, so warm, I feel the weight of all my time. Oh, jealousy, my silent song, A tender ache I’ve carried long. They shine with love I never knew, What I was searching for… they grew. Now I stand here, older still, With dreams that never bent their will. I smile for them, but deep inside, I mourn the love that passed me by. I ran through years with open hands, Believed in hope, believed in plans. I met a thousand almost-trues, Kissed goodbyes I thought would stay. I chased the spark, I chased the flame, Called loneliness by softer names. And now I see it plain and clear, What I was missing standing here. They don’t yet know how rare this is, How brief the fire, how fast it fades. I’d give my past, my pride, my years, To feel again what they are made. Oh, jealousy, my fragile truth, I envy not their skin, but youth. They shine with love I never knew, What I was begging for… came true. Now I stand here, time-worn, wise, With mercy trapped behind my eyes. I bless their joy, yet softly cry For love that passed me by. If I could speak, I’d say: “Hold tight, Guard that flame through every night. Don’t turn away when hearts grow scared, Love is found when it’s well shared.” But wisdom comes too late to give, It only teaches us to live With echoes of the might-have-been, And peace with all we’ve never seen. Oh, jealousy, now rest your head, Your poison’s sweet, your sting is said. They carry hope I couldn’t keep, I’ll carry mine into my sleep. Let them dance where I once dreamed, Let them love where I once leaned. I’ll sing their fire into the sky, And forgive the love that passed me by. The night grows still, their laughter fades, The night grows still, their laughter fades, Two fading stars on separate ways. I turn toward the dark, and sigh… Still grateful I was there… passing by. © Ravion-Jalix - 2026
