I can't seem to find the original post (my new program ate it) but I
believe the song that contains WYSIWYG is 

           DESIRE   by  Gene Loves Jezebel

Lyrics I remember....

Sugar I've been missing you
and I don't know where it is that you've been hiding
I'm in a ball of fire
in your arms desire
and I've been wondering where it is you're hiding
What you get is what you see... Desire
