We always want what we can't get

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?
