How to Dress Well - What You Wanted [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

You said: “I know that I want it & I live like I love it, but when I’m sad, that changes
When I want some peace or truth I’m constantly assailed, assailed”
“And I’m wanting wanting waiting waiting wanting: love deferred” –
But I won’t stay: “No”

[Chorus]
You never say just what you wanted when you want it
And I never talked to you when I was sore about it
Ohhhh I don’t wanna wait until the dawn and tell myself I’ll learn by morning
But I never listened to myself and never said one word about it

Change has come and changed just how I look upon myself
Ya you could have lived happily & gone to somewhere else, someone else, somewhere else
But who would stand for me if, if you weren’t standing there?
Say “no”, say “it won’t ever be, won’t ever be that way”!

But talking how it (could be) different’s more that words it’s more like willing for the time to steal away
Now I see your face in everything and make a song, make a song sing it far away

[Chorus]
You never say just what you wanted when you want it
And I never talked to you when I was sore about it
Ohhhh I don’t wanna wait until the dawn and tell myself I’ll learn by morning
But I never listened to myself and never said one word about it

Said I know that I want it, but the soon as I got it
It'll change, I hate it
Everyttime I see some proof, oh God, I want that one to beg
I want that chase, want that bad

And I know it's lame, this basic job, I'm so obsessed
Yeah, I know it's so absurd
But when I love it, I love it
All I want is that loving, girl

But I won't stay
No, But I Won't stay
No, but I won't stay
No, you can never say just what you want when I want you

[Chorus]
You never say just what you wanted when you want it
And I never talked to you when I was sore about it
Ohhhh I don’t wanna wait until the dawn and tell myself I’ll learn by morning
But I never listened to myself and never said one word about it
