The Haves by Eddie Vedder Lyrics
[Verse 1]
When you wake up
It just might be
The first of many blows that you'll receive
Today, what we need
[Pre-Chorus]
We want what we need
We need what's above
We're always reaching
For something above
[Chorus]
But we've got enough
All of the haves they have not
Not got half of what we got
They want more
I just want you
Better believe it
I beg of you
[Verse 2]
Why don't you know that I know?
When you're hurting
After all these years, I know
Like siamese twins
I can feel every one of senses
We're just the same
Unconditional love
Easier said, said than done
[Pre-Chorus]
We want what we need
We need what's above
We find ourselves reaching
For something above
[Chorus]
But we've got enough
All of the haves they have not
Not got half of what we got
The ceiling's so high
When you're down on the floor
It's easy to be wanting
To be wanting more
[Bridge]
All those years ago
When we could have met
So hard
Oh, hard not to regret
But I know we got
A lot of life
Life to live yet
[Pre-Chorus]
We want what we need
We need what's above
We find ourselves reaching
For something above
[Chorus]
But we've got enough
All of the haves, they have not
Not got half of what we got
They're wanting more
I'm just wanting you
Oh, better believe me
All I'm begging of you
All of the haves
With all that they do
All of the haves
They ain't got you
[Outro]
They ain't got you
They ain't got
They ain't got
Ooh, got you
Got you
Oh, got you
When you wake up
It just might be
The first of many blows that you'll receive
Today, what we need
[Pre-Chorus]
We want what we need
We need what's above
We're always reaching
For something above
[Chorus]
But we've got enough
All of the haves they have not
Not got half of what we got
They want more
I just want you
Better believe it
I beg of you
[Verse 2]
Why don't you know that I know?
When you're hurting
After all these years, I know
Like siamese twins
I can feel every one of senses
We're just the same
Unconditional love
Easier said, said than done
[Pre-Chorus]
We want what we need
We need what's above
We find ourselves reaching
For something above
[Chorus]
But we've got enough
All of the haves they have not
Not got half of what we got
The ceiling's so high
When you're down on the floor
It's easy to be wanting
To be wanting more
[Bridge]
All those years ago
When we could have met
So hard
Oh, hard not to regret
But I know we got
A lot of life
Life to live yet
[Pre-Chorus]
We want what we need
We need what's above
We find ourselves reaching
For something above
[Chorus]
But we've got enough
All of the haves, they have not
Not got half of what we got
They're wanting more
I'm just wanting you
Oh, better believe me
All I'm begging of you
All of the haves
With all that they do
All of the haves
They ain't got you
[Outro]
They ain't got you
They ain't got
They ain't got
Ooh, got you
Got you
Oh, got you
