Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors – You Want What You Can't Have lyrics

[Verse 1: Drew Holcomb]
Some people want a house on the top of the hill
Some people want people to pay all their bills
Some people wanna move on
Some people wanna go back in time
Some people buy everything they want
Other people don't have a dime

[Chorus: Drew Holcomb and Lori Mckenna]
You want what you can't have
Since the Garden of Eden, it's been like that
You can't tear down the trees or pull all the weeds
You want what you can't have

[Verse 2: Drew Holcomb with Lori Mckenna]
Some people wear their heart on their sleeve
Some people have a heart of stone
Some people are the life of the party
And others want to be left alone
Some people wanna drink
Some people wanna smoke
Some people stay up all night
Praying for a child of their own

[Chorus: Drew Holcomb and Lori Mckenna]
You want what you can't have
Since the Garden of Eden, it's been like that
You can't tear down the tree or pull all the weeds
Spend your life looking for the greener grass
You want what you can't have
Even fortune tellers can't go back
Can't wake the dead or change what you said
You want what you can't have
You want what you can't have

[Bridge: Drew Holcomb]
We want the spark, but we don't want the burn
We want the love, but we don't want the hurt

[Chorus: Drew Holcomb and Lori Mckenna]
You want what you can't have
Since the Garden of Eden, it's been like that
You can't tear down the tree or pull all the weeds
Spend your life looking for the greener grass
You want what you can't have
Even fortune tellers can't go back
You can't wake the dead or change what you said
You want what you can't have
You want what you can't have
Oh, we all want what we can't have
You want what you can't have
