The title is too lengthy and just a placeholder. I also want to write a bridge but haven't got round to it yet. It's a bit of a novelty song (with dark undertones). Just wondering before I put in any more effort how interesting and relate-able the story/theme is, and whether the hook/title tagline does it justice...

Thanks
T.

Verse 1
We broke, and I wished you well, but I fell in a wishing well and hoped, some day you'd come home
When you called, asking if I could just pretend you didn't leave, it sounded easy to me

Pre-Chorus
But when the lights go down you take a ghost into bed with me now

Chorus
Cause you're moving in ways that I've never seen
You're taking me places that we've never been
You're holding me down but my mind's out of reach
Thinking who made a woman out of my baby

Verse 2
I ask, where you went and who you met but I don't wanna know, believe me I don't
My jealousy, grows bigger than the man I try to be, and it's eating me

Pre-Chorus
Cause when we go out, you order drinks I can't even pronounce

Chorus
And you're moving in ways that I've never seen
You're taking me places that we've never been
You're holding me now but my mind's out of reach
Thinking who made a woman out of my baby

Only one suggestion came to mind. . .

"Who Made a woman out of YOU, baby" (instead of "my baby."

It fits better (imo) with the rest of your song.

Title would then be "Who Made a Woman Out of You"

I think it's a really strong idea.
Who Made A Woman out of You?

Bridge could be a reflection on the 'innocent' girl she use to be? shy, retiring etc.

  Hi Tom
     It's almost there man, just needs a few adjustments and one or two more lines.

     My jealousy grows bigger than the man i used to be.

    That's pretty good, wish i'd got there before you. The suggestion by HTW to replace baby with you should be heeded, it's a big improvement though it's only one word.

    Good write though my friend, more to come i'm sure.
