We Always Want What We Cant Get — текст песни (Nelson)

The door behind me closes-

I know for sure this chapters over

Ill never more see my reflection in her loving eyes



A million times before Ive seen

When opposites attract to me

The flame burns uncontrollably but soon the fire dies

But Im not sure what Im asking for -

Why if I want love do I beg for more?



Chorus:

Guess we always want what we cant get

Love just strikes us blind

But in the end, we always get what we cant want

Youd have thought wed have learned

But we fall for it every time



It turns me on if shes unreachable or dangerous

When what I need and what I lust

Are completely different things

How many times have I let love slip through my fingers

Chasing after promises I know will never keep?



But I dont know why I cant let go-

When my heart says yes

But my mind screams no



Chorus



Ive been looking all my life for answers

Questions of the heart Ive got to ask her

Does she exist or does she not? I wonder...

And so my search for her goes on and on and on



But I dont know why I cant let go-

When my heart says yes

But my mind screams no



Chorus



Guess we always want what we cant get

Will I be running around chasing love

till I lose my mind?

We always get what we cant want

Does anybody - anyone at all feel the same?
