Wanted
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.
Sitting in an armchair
With my head between my hands
It wouldn't have to feel like this if you'd only understand
Too many misunderstandings causing such delay
And if it doesn't work like this we'll try another way
This is the way you wanted it
I didn't udnerstand
This is the way you wanted it
I didn't understand
You know that all I wanted
was to be there by your side
And if you didn't want it
well you shouldn't have denied
I knew that you were someone special right from the start
But if you treat me badly we've been better off apart
This is the way you wanted it
I didn't understand
This is the way you wanted it
I didn't understand (understand)
