Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors ft. Lori McKenna - You Want What You Can't Have Lyrics

Some people want a house on the top of the hill.
Some people want people to pay all their bills.
Some people want to move on, some people want to go back in time.
Some people buy everything they want, other people don't have a dime.
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,
You want what you can't have.

Some people wear their heart on their sleeve,
Some people have a heart of stone.
Some people are the life of the party.
Others want to be left alone.
Some people want a drink.
Some people want a smoke.
Some people stay up all night,
Praying for a child of their own.

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.

We want the spark but we don't want the burn.
We want the love but we don't want the hurt.

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.
