Melissa Etheridge - If I Wanted To lyrics

Oh, oh, oh, oh

If I wanted to I could do anything right
I could dance with the devil
On a Saturday night
If I wanted to I could turn matches to gold
Smoke, drink
Swear and I would never grow old
I wouldn't have to be in love with you

If I only wanted to yeah if I only wanted to

If I wanted to I could run fast as a train
Be as sharp as a needle
That's twisting your brain
If I wanted to I could turn mountains to sand
Have political leaders in the palm of my hand
I wouldn't have to be in love with you

If I only wanted to yeah if I only wanted to

I could leave tonight and I would be alright
Stop holding on if I wanted to
If I only wanted to yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh, oh

If I wanted to I could be as patient as death
Fix this hole in my heart
Leaking into my flesh
If I wanted to I could turn sparks into ice
There'd never be another woman who
Could make you think twice
I wouldn't have to be in love with you

If I only wanted to yeah if I only wanted to
Hey if I only wanted to
Hey if I only wanted to

Oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh ah hey if I wanted to
Hey hey hey hey if I wanted to
Hey hey hey hey if I wanted to
If I wanted to oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh
