The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

When I say good morning

And you say goodbye

With your arms wrapped around me

When I ask if you love me

And you say that you might

With your arms wrapped around me

And I heard that

Wantin’ ain’t gettin’

Wantin’ ain’t gettin’

Now I know

And when you are my lover

We turn out the light

I wanna believe you

I’ve got your love wrapped around me

So I put up a fight ‘cause I wanna believe you

I wanna believe you

I wanna believe you

But I heard that

Wantin’ ain’t gettin’ no

Wantin’ ain’t gettin’ no

Now I know, now I know

And I heard how it hurts

Yeah it kills all your nerve

That shit makes you blue

And I heard how you cry

Like you’re wounded

Now I know it's true

It's true, it's true

It's true, it's true

But I heard that

Wantin’ ain’t gettin’ no

Wantin’ ain’t gettin’ no

Now I know, now I know

Now I know

Now I know

Now I know

And now I know
