[Verse 1]
You planted the seed, the apple was ripe
You gave it to me, so I took a bite
Took only a second for the poison to kick in
That look in your eyes, it turned into fiction
So I gave it up and you let me down
Now I wear the blame and you wear the crown
I was just feening for a reaction
So I did a bad thing and you let it happen
[Pre-Chorus]
Just one taste and I was in too deep
Fell from grace, oh, so effortlessly
[Chorus]
I always want what I can't have
I know it's wrong but I'm like that
Gave me your heart took it right back
I always want what I can't
I always want what I can't have
I know it's wrong but I'm like that
Gave me your heart took it right back
I always want what I can't
[Verse 2]
It's never еnough, the grass underneath
And I know it's just as green as thе grass next to me
But it doesn't matter, it's like a disease
That I need a pill for 'cause it's slowly killing me
[Pre-Chorus]
Just one taste and I was in too deep
Fell from grace, oh, so effortlessly
[Chorus]
I always want what I can't have
I know it's wrong but I'm like that
Gave me your heart took it right back
I always want what I can't
I always want what I can't have
I know it's wrong but I'm like that
Gave me your heart took it right back
I always want what I can't
[Outro]
I guess I can't have you
La la la la la la la la
I guess I can't have you
La la la la la la la la
I guess I can't have you
La la la la la la la la
I always want what I can't have
I guess I can't have you
La la la la la la la la
I guess I can't have you
La la la la la la la la
I guess I can't have you
La la la la la la la la
I always want what I can't have

My main production reference for this song was INXS “Need You Tonight.” The way the layers call and respond to one another is soothing in a way that is forgotten in most of today’s music. Incredible attention was given to every melodic layer and each sonic motif became the star player of the song. W...
