The door behind me closes-
   I know for sure this chapter's over
   I'll never more see my reflection in her loving eyes
  
   A million times before I've seen
   When opposites attract to me
   The flame burns uncontrollably but soon the fire dies
   But I'm not sure what I'm asking for -
   Why if I want love do I beg for more?
  
   Chorus:
   Guess we always want what we can't get
   Love just strikes us blind
   But in the end, we always get what we can't want
   You'd have thought we'd have learned
   But we fall for it every time
  
   It turns me on if she's 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 don't know why I can't let go-
   When my heart says yes
   But my mind screams no
  
   Chorus
  
   I've been looking all my life for answers
   Questions of the heart I've 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 don't know why I can't let go-
   When my heart says yes
   But my mind screams no
  
   Chorus
  
   Guess we always want what we can't get
   Will I be running around chasing love
   ?Till I lose my mind?
   We always get what we can't want
   Does anybody - anyone at all feel the same?
